  • European Grind Date Vinyl

    5 out of 5 stars
    runyhrisAugust 19, 2025United Kingdom🇬🇧

    I've had the chance to own both the US and European 2004 vinyl editions of The Grind Date. Absolutely killer album, by the way. When it comes to sound quality, my ears can't spot any differences between the two. But, if you're holding the covers and looking at the inner sleeves, you'll notice a big contrast. The European version is printed on much thicker paper, which I personally prefer. So, if you haven't yet grabbed this incredible De La album, I'd highly suggest going for this version. Cheers!

  • Epic Instrumental Collaboration

    5 out of 5 stars
    meldekuwApril 13, 2025United States🇺🇸

    Without a doubt, 'Rock Co. Kane Flow' stands tall as one of the most epic instrumentals and collaborations ever! Big ups to DOOM, Jake One, and De La!

  • Fantastic Pressing, Amazing Sound

    5 out of 5 stars
    YCCAWOJOLMay 20, 2024United States🇺🇸

    This pressing is fantastic, it sounds amazing with no surface noise, just as good as the original, if not better, especially with the added instrumentals.

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.
