De-La-Soul - 3 Feet High And Rising
Drawing On Hall & Oates Samples This Tune Was De La's Second Top 10 UK Hit Single If Memory Serves Me - It Followed The Seminal Track "Me Myself & I" Which Was Where I Came To Meet The Music Of The Native Tongues Tribe. Hailing From South Coastal England Myself I Had Nothing In Common As A Teenager With De La Who Come From LI New York. Long Island Sounds Like My Kind Of Place As Illustrated In De La's Album "Stakes Is High". I Guess Say No Go Was A Political Music Video And Postdnoous Masio & Trugoy ...
