Product description

De La Soul's 'Art Official Intelligence: Mosaic Thump' is a masterfully crafted album that showcases the group's unique blend of jazz rap, east coast hip hop, and hip hop. Released on 8 August 2000 through AOI Records, this hour-and-six-minute-long masterpiece takes listeners on a sonic journey through 18 expertly woven tracks.

From the opening notes of 'Spitkicker.com/Say R.' to the final beats of 'U Don't Wanna B.D.S.', De La Soul's distinctive sound is on full display. With tracks like 'My Writes', 'Thru Ya City', and 'Declaration', the group's lyrical prowess and inventive production are undeniable. The inclusion of interludes, such as 'Interluden' and 'Words from the Chief Rocker', adds a layer of depth and complexity to the album, while 'Ghost Weed Skit 01', 'Ghost Weed Skit 02', and 'Ghost Weed Skit 03' provide humorous interjections.

Throughout 'Art Official Intelligence: Mosaic Thump', De La Soul's eclectic style and genre-bending approach are evident, making for an engaging and captivating listen. With its rich textures, intricate lyricism, and genre-pushing sound, this album is a testament to De La Soul's innovative spirit and their position as one of the most influential and beloved groups in hip hop.

This is a 2023 Reissue released as a 2LP set.

  • De La Soul's Timeless Masterpiece

    5 out of 5 stars
    GmexiwopOmeOctober 4, 2025United States🇺🇸

    In my view, this is the top De La Soul album out there. It was a total smash when it dropped and remains a classic to this day. The same goes for the featured artists, who are no amateurs in the game. If you were into HipHop around the 2000s, this album is a must-have conscious genre masterpiece. De La skillfully blends different styles into one cohesive project, just like they always do. It's a fantastic work.

    Wow, this album is a real shocker, an absolute knockout, with killer beats and lyrics. Pure old-school street genius. The sound quality is fantastic, deep bass, and amazing vocals. You gotta have it, or at least give it a spin.

About De La Soul

De La Soul, the pioneering American hip hop trio hailing from Amityville, Long Island, burst onto the scene in 1988 with a sound that was as innovative as it was infectious. Comprised of Kelvin "Posdnuos" Mercer, David "Trugoy the Dove" Jolicoeur, and Vincent "Maseo" Mason, the group quickly gained attention for their eclectic sampling, quirky lyrics, and groundbreaking contributions to jazz rap and alternative hip hop. Their debut album, "3 Feet High and Rising," released in 1989, is a seminal work that blends thought-provoking lyrics with laid-back beats, featuring the iconic single "Me Myself and I." De La Soul's unique style, which often incorporates elements from various musical genres, has solidified their status as hip hop legends. Their discography is a testament to their enduring influence, with standout tracks like "The Magic Number" and "Bigger" showcasing their ability to evolve and innovate over the years.
