De La Soul ‘De La Soul Is Dead’ 20th Anniversary Australian Tour 2011

One of the most important recordings in the evolution of hip hop is De La Soul’s milestone album, ‘De La Soul Is Dead’. At the time of its release it literally altered the cultural landscape of hip hop music across the globe and ushered in a new era of positivity and consciousness in global hip hop culture.

The album was produced by legendary DJ producer Prince Paul, and between them, Paul, Mase, Dave and Pos gave birth to one of the most loved and celebrated hip hop records of all time, which included classic De La joints like ‘(A Rollerskatin Jam Called) Saturdays’, ‘Ring Ring’, ’Keepin The Faith’ and ‘Pass The Plugs’.

This is a once in a life time opportunity to see one of the greatest hip hop albums of all time recreated live in concert. De La Soul’s 2009 tour of Australia sold out venues around the country, so get your tickets fast to avoid disappointment.

Tickets on sale from Da Klinic, Clinic 116, Oztix and www.highfi.oztix.com.au Monday Jan 10th.

Will be held at Gluttony corner East Tce & Grenfell St

No love for Millie Pulled A Pistol On Santa? That has to be one of DLS if not hip hop's greatest ever tracks IMO.

Shit, has it been 20 years? Hot damn! 'De La Soul is Dead' was their best album imho. I played that CD so many times I swear I burnt a hole in it. So many classic tracks and rhymes.

Oodles Of O's - Pease Porridge - Let, Let Me In - Shwingalokate - Keepin' The Faith.

They don't make 'em like they used to. funkyj
