Phife Dawg, Maseo Of De La Soul, & Skilled B-Boys Represent For Puma At ‘The Mid’ In Chicago (Video)
March 14, 2012
On March 2nd in Chicago, Puma held a special B-Boy competition & in-store with Phife Dawg of A Tribe Called Quest, Maseo Of De La Soul, & live instrumentalist, DJ, & producer AraabMuzik. Phife Dawg took the time to sign autographs for fans before launching into a 7-8 song performance at The Mid & was later joined by Maseo of De La Soul who hopped on stage to rock with Phife for a few joints. DJ Rasta Root served as the DJ for the evening alongside Maseo before producer AraabMuzik performed a set doing live beat creations & remixes on his beat machine. The video directed by Konee Rock is expertly edited but condensed down & many parts of what took place that night were left on the digital cutting room floor. Overall the turnout was great & it was definitely a good day in Chi-town.

De La Soul Presents: First Serve- “Must Be the Music” (Video)
February 10, 2012
It amazes me that even after all these years De La still finds ways to be creative and original. De La Soul’s Plug 1 (Posdnous) and Plug 2 (Trugoy) will be dropping a concept album, First Serve April 2nd that chronicles the tales to 2 friends, Dean Whittier ( Dave) and Jacob Pop Life ( Pos) and their adventures in music. The first single “Must be the Music” has the 2 emcees comically taking jabs at all the music industry cliches. Its a fun jam that we all can relate to in one way or another.You know one thing that you are going to get with De La not matter what direction they take is a quality product, as they have been in my opinion the most consistent hip hop group.Make sure you run full speed to cop this joint when it drops!!!

De La Soul To Release The ‘Artificial Intelligence III’ Album This Year (Video)
February 26, 2011
Maseo of De La Soul recently chopped it up in an interview about their new album Artificial Intelligence III in which the trio plans to drop this year. In this interview Maseo reminds us all why we love De La Soul so much & why they are such an iconic group in music period. They are artists & musicians who do what they feel first & foremost. Maseo makes some very valid points about New York hip hop too in which I wholeheartedly agree. On a side note…. Maseo’s laugh is wickedly scary. Reminds me of a scene from a classic horror flick.
