this is pos from de la soul
he's a pretty dope mc
and even though de la soul's first album came out in '89 and they're still in the game he's pretty under-rated
he's got a great smooth flow but he can dish out the hardcore rhymes when he needs to
"man, every word i say should be a hip hop quotable"
i saw de la soul when they played the falls festival (in tasmania - how good?) and have seen them live on tv and the internet and they really work well live. they do all the hyping-up-the-crowd bit but most of all they just bring the party - all the good tracks with loads of new sections and ad-libs
anyway, pos is just the man
one of my favourite of his rhymes is
"gun control means using both hands in my land"
from the title track to their 1997 album stakes is high
its a good track
tellin' it like it is

oops, the album was released in 1996, not 1997
That was a great Falls Festival. I could hardly speak after De La played, my voice was ruined. Good times.
I wonder if they'll hit us up with an another album sometime soon?
