3 Feet High and Rising
“Each Sunday, Pitchfork takes an in-depth look at a significant album from the past, and any record not in our archives is eligible. Today, we revisit the groundbreaking 1989 debut album from hip-hop legends De La Soul.”
Buhloone Mindstate
“De La Soul’s knotty and brilliant third album is a fever dream of shared memories, historical touchstones, geographical landmarks, first-person pronouns and six feet-deep self-actualizations.”
The Grind Date
“Ending their 15-year run on Tommy Boy, De La Soul's first Sanctuary release features an all-star lineup of underground beatmakers-- including Madlib, 9th Wonder, Jay Dee, and mainstay Supa Dave West-- expertly backing the trio's usual cagy, confident lyrics.”
Cabin In The Sky
“Quality from the group. Fun songs throughout - whilst touching on the death of Dave -Don't Push Me is beautiful. Giancarlo Esposito being used was an amazing touch.”
3 Feet High and Rising
“An absolute classic with some elite moments and hits. Fun vibe throughout with great prod and performances from the trio.”
