    I watched this doc because first I love De La and secondly the passing of Trugoy. And I got to say I feel a little better after watching it. It got ROUGH in the middle listening to Plug 2 talk about his mortality….but by the end I can say he gave his LIFE to this thing we call Hip Hop.
    Rest in PARADISE King!

    When your career has span almost 30 years and you're still dropping relevant albums you are the definition of hip-hop. De La Soul means From The Soul. Don't ever forget how important these guys are to not only a culture, but society as a whole.

      I must say, I was lucky enough to meet and hang with Plug2 and Maseo separately, on different occasions, and it’s amazing the amount of coolness and humility they possess. You’d never sense they were the game changing innovators that they are, from their demeanor and attitude.

      @howardcho8426 8 років тому +6

      2sacks1: I've come to learn that people who spend time bashing others (whether it be online or not) are typically lacking something that gives their lives meaning. I'm sorry that you feel the need to be hurtful; whether it's because it makes you feel better about your plight, or whether it's from pure anger and hatred. As disappointed as I was when I first read your post, I realized that I don't know what your life is like, and so I should try to reserve judgement. All I can offer are my condolences. I don't know Ernie Manning, but there's something amazing about someone who loves something so much that he's willing to spend half of what he has left to support.

    De La got old in hiphop. Our lives went along with yours; from party and optimistic 20s to being grown and family concerns and baring your soul and being dope all the while. I appreciate this album, and was proud to support.

    I once saw them live when I was 21 in whistler Canada. I went around the back and shouted to them to ask for a photo, they said to just come around back stage to take it properly. I then proceeded to go back stage and awkwardly take some photos and talk to them all. They were so damn humble and friendly, in particular Pos who gave the time just to chat to a random family after playing a huge set. I probably hung out for a little too long savouring the opportunity but they just showed nothing but love and appreciation.
    That experience ignited my passion for making music and I am so appreciative of these guys.
    Rest in peace Dave, we love you and shout out to De La Soul the GOAT. 🔥✌🏽

    Awesome! That new album is incredible!! Funny how this generation of "music" fans are quick to say older rappers are washed up etc, when De La Soul proved them wrong by releasing one of the best albums to come out in a while! This is real MUSIC... Respect to De La Soul & thank you for being a great influence/inspiration!

      I am a 48 year old fan, and I was there when hip hop began, what captured my ears about DeLa-soul, was their incredible rythmic grooves and production of mase and Prince Paul. Dela always captured the ears first. That image that they put out was only a reflection of where they are from. As they have proven,... Hip-hop is not just a "hood" thing . DeLa was the living embodiment of the evolution of the most expressive,dynamic, and powerful genre of music in the 20th century. Period.
