    In the wake of the Tommy Boy royalties scandal....

    3 feet...is top 5 album of all time. Widely compared as the Sgt Pepper's of rap.

    Who here on this site bumps De La? What's your fav album/songs by them?

    One of the all-time classics, kicked off the incredible legacy of The Native Tongues. They had a tremendous run between this and then how they switched it up with De La Soul Is Dead & later Buhloone Mindstate (some might say this is where they got too preachy but I still f---s with it). Felt good donating to their gofundme since their label situation always was awful.

    Pos & Trugoy have always been great; witty social commentary and a lot of funny lines. This is an essential song from this time
