Comments for De La Soul, Stakes is High

By far, the best rap album of the year. A fresh, new direction for rap at a critical time.

they're baaaaaaack..... and as strong.... must have hip hop album. most songs of all their albums... superior from beginning to end. never gets old.... best band in hip hop...by far..

De La Soul is here wonce again , and the bizness must be aware of the undisputed supa emcees . They have said that the stakes is high , and because of this ,MC''s are catching down syndrome, putting on the brakes for those who just pony ride . De La has again established that there is sunshine in hip hop , and if others want it , De La can always give 4 more . Itzsoweezee nowadays for a normal joe to put out a record , but wackness is so common , creativity is like dog eat dog . Due to this De La Soul gets hotter than Long Island Degrees with their lyrics , advising the industry to betta listen . Enough with the intro , just listen to dinninit , and urge them kids to listen to the big brother beat .

This album is perfect for rap right now. It`s a breath of fresh air. However, as a De La Soul album, I`d have to say it`s subpar. It seems to be lacking the pep and wit of their first two albums. It`s better than Buhloone Mindstate and it has some real dope tracks on it. Check it out, "Big Brother Beat," "Itzsoweezee," and "Supa Emcees" are what make this album the jam of the year.
