Grind Date is great because it suggests a world where De La Soul just kept recording, putting out a damn respectable album every two or three years. It's kind of a broken promise is that respect. Really good album, not quite a classic though (I actually prefer Bionix)

absolutely. i would put out the argument that de la has a better hit/miss ratio than any other hip hop artists

Not crazy about the first AOI album but it's been years. Thanks for the dinner music suggestion!

5 album minimum, i think they go toe to toe with pretty much anyonexp okay yeah, quik but i dunno if i'd put him over them so much as at the same level

love them both, would not give them the same hit/miss ratio as de la

This is awesome as can be. Even so, I'd love to have it on Spotify for usability; pretty sure I have everything on MP3 already but hopefully some outtake stuff to grab.

will be furious if "complete catalogue" doesn't mean "complete catalogue" and it's just some studio albums
― (D1CK$) (sic), Friday, 14 February 2014 04:07 (ten years ago) link
Like forks said I have everything as well but would be cool with random stuff. Kinda doubt it tho and just think it will be studio lp's. This isn't really for me tho I'm more excited to spread the word and just think its cool for them to do this.

This is basically the opportunity for me to go back and plug holes in my collection since there are a couple of albums I never had my own copies of (3 Feet and Buhloone in particular)

I vividly remember the spring of 1989. I was on a trip to colonial Williamsburg, and there was a freak blizzard that dumped something like two feet of snow, shutting down the park and basically relegating us to the hotel room, where I mostly plopped in front of MTV, which I did not have at home. I knew that New Kids on the Block was absolutely not for me, that much was certain; "Hangin' Tough" was in circulation. But at the same time, I remember seeing the "Potholes in my Lawn" video a few times, and feeling like I wasn't quite ready for that, either. I think I was in middle school classic rock mode. Obviously I caught up to De La Soul, big time.

These guys deserve my money for giving away their catalog the other year alone. That a lot of those incentives are cool is just icing on the cake.

Somebody snapped up the "Be on a skit" level pretty sharpish.
