2023 reissue, originally released in 2000 - their fifth studio album, guests include Redman, Tash and J-Ro of Tha Liks, Xzibit, Busta Rhymes, Mike D and Ad Rock of the Beastie Boys, Busy Bee, Freddie Foxxx and Chaka Khan. De La Soul have held onto their crowns as the kings of innovation. This time around, they took cliched subject matter and made it interesting, and interesting subject matter and made it mind spinning. There are few rappers who can claim that they changed the game for the better; there are fewer still that can say they’ve been in the game for more than ten years and are still as dope as they were when they dropped their first album; De La Soul can claim both, and that’s saying a lot.
