De La Soul or De La Slow?
De La Soul - De La Soul Is Dead (1991)
by Nightjar Fri Apr 17, 2020 9:50 pm

Still off-beat, but with a strong and idiosyncratic identity.
It blew the lid off the cliches attached to them via the 10% and established them as a powerfully and permanently powerhouse on the Hip-Hop map.

It is a bit long, true.
My feeling is that Hip-Hop/rap might need to have yet another subforum called "Graffiti Alley".
Y'know, racialism and all that...
Some people here might genuinely not likeor understand the genre.

If you stripped the skits it'd be about 45 minutes.
"Bitties In The BK Lounge" is one of the best songs ever.
I think Wendi would love "A Roller Skating Jam Named "Saturdays"".

I understand it. It's that thing that the Real Roxanne and Hitman Howie T did in Bang Zoom Let's Go.

I think that if we get worn out we could stop after "Millie Pulled a Pistol on Santa".

That takes it to about 46 minutes.
Also, it's a gr8 song to end Part 1 of the commentary on.

That was acceptable as a opening to an epic album.
Why is it still going?
