Mary J Blige once stated that De La Soul was a big influence. Hip hop and rap music would have been a different landscapeif it wasn't for them. De La Soul introduce the skit to hip hop then the remix long before Diddy or Jermaine Dupree had record deals.

May 6, 2012 - The magic number was the number of samples that "3 feet high and rising" took. It was the last time rap/hip hop was able to sample. Music is dead.

fewconscioushours Says:

May 7, 2012 - I agree music especially rap is dead... but there are still some groups who sample, like Ugly Duckling.

fewconscioushours Says:

May 7, 2012 - Probably meant that De La is underrated and mostly unknown to the kids today. I was born in 1993 and none of my peers have heard of De La. Actually most of them have no idea of hip-hop history and probably think it was 50 cent or Eminem who invented rap music

lincland Says:

May 7, 2012 - There is a great documentary on rap/hip hop in the 90s, and how it thrived, but after all the lawsuits over sampling, it's just not the same. "Fear of a Black Planet", and "3 Feet High and Rising" for me was the peak.
