What a great time it is when the technology we have access to is ahead of the laws that exist to govern our use of that technology. Enjoy this current window of opportunity. Mase on sampling: “Its not actually stealing, its like bringing back the old songs, making the old songs new again…”
de la soul saved my life.
i’m really tryin to think…who is my new and personal de la soul….
Word to Pierre, they saved & gave my life new creative meaning too.
Word to Wild Cowgirl, the only artist comparable to De La is MadLib/Quasimoto.
I’ll state something again that got me near death threats in other forums:
1: J-Dilla was NOT the greatest ever though he was an incredible & ingenious artist. Folks wear tees saying ‘Dilla changed my life’; well, DE LA changed MY life (as well as Primier, Pete Rock, Large Professor, etc.).
2: Ther’d be no Dilla without De La.
