For anyone that loves REAL old school rap/hip hop, this CD is for you. I happen to be going through the television channels and saw that it was the 20 year anniversary of when YO MTV Raps was first aired. They were playing a ton of great old videos of rap artists when they first came out, and De La Soul was one of them. I tried to get this cd on ITunes, but was unable to locate it, so I turned to EBay. I've been singing along with the CD in my car ever since! They don't make rap/hip hop tunes like these classics anymore!!
Whatever happened to my previous copy is a mystery and I missed it, so my quest began. I tried record stores ~ both new and used, then gave up for a few years. Finally, I decided to replace it and found it here. Not only is this copy perfect in every way, it’s been terrific re-experiencing the music. De La Soul evolved, leaving this to feel a little out of time, which for me at this moment is perfect.

I love this album. Bought it when I was about 14 years old back in '89. It's one of the rare albums I can still listen to after 20 years and still enjoy. It's also refreshing to hear artists not rap about how rich and famous they are.
This album has stood the test of time. Just as good, if not better than when it came out.
