Requirements: .ePUB reader, 3.8 MB
Overview: Living In a D.A.I.S.Y. Age is a brilliant and in-depth look at not just a pivotal and massively important rap group, but also a generous and incisive dive into the culture that they shaped, the culture that shaped them, and the universe they operated in that many of us still benefit richly from’ Hanif Abdurraqib, New York Times bestselling author of There’s Always This Year and A Little Devil in America
A culturally connected celebration of the groundbreaking hip-hop group De La Soul, and how they changed the look, sound, and feel of Black America.
Music artists and trends come and go, but every once in a while, a moment arrives that genuinely changes everything. In 1988, De La Soul, three young men from Amityville, Long Island, did exactly that. Their always innovative work pulled inspiration from artists of the past and popularized cutting-edge music sampling techniques to blend jazz, R&B, and rap as they created a sound unlike any the world had heard before.
But the De La Soul experience didn’t end there. These weren’t just musicians-they were game-changers in so many ways. From the way they dressed, to the words they spoke, to the day-glo colours of their breakout 3 Feet and Rising, De La Soul rejected convention, refused to be talked back into the box, and left the door open for everyone behind them.
