De La Soul is a massively influential hip hop group, hailing from Amityville, Long Island, New York. They are best known for their eclectic sampling and quirky, surreal lyrics, and their contributions to the evolution of the jazz rap subgenre. The members are Kelvin Mercer (Posdnuos, Mercenary, Plug Wonder Why, Plug One), David Jude JolicÅ“ur (Trugoy the Dove, Dave, Plug Two) and Vincent Mason (Pasemaster Mase, Maseo, Plug Three). The three formed the group in high school and caught the attention of producer Paul Huston (Prince Paul) with a demo tape of the song "Plug Tunin'". Their debut album, 3 Feet High and Rising (1989), was a critical smash that saw the group labeled hippies due to the message of peace and love.

De La Soul

Pos:
Smoothed out without the r and b
(mercy) come on!
(mercy) come on yall!
(mercy) come on!
Theres no r and b in this song
So come along fly children come along
Come along fly children come along
Come along fly children come along
Theres no r and b in this song!
Pushed up a dame by the name of crystal
Who flaunts to the point just like a missile
A habit wit ear kiddin wit gold mags
And since she fancies facial hair she asks my name
(hey baby whats your name? )
Now ever so fab I said Im wala
Miss wild who used to run tough wit koala
She was a winner of my metaphor and she knew that
I said Im gonna feed your mouth she said you do that
Now crystal stops the jeep I think Im mad fly
She used to have a man wit lots of mad signs
Her strut was guaranteed to make a gay smile
And in bed she had proved to be real agile
I show her to the lounge and I dined her
Then she gave me some digits where I could find her
I licked her like a stamp
Laid and sticked her like a champ
But the... um she gave me burn
I had to go see the doctor
(3 days later) skeezer skeezer skeezer (uhhhh)
(3 days later) skeezer skeezer skeezer (oh yeah)
(3 days later) skeezer skeezer skeezer
(3 days later) skeezer skeezer skeezer!
Dove:
Well it was thirty after nine and I was loungin
Tokin on some smoke that I was poundin
I rang up seven up so we can skip to the mall
Thinkin a good day to shop
But then we got stopped
A shooter man said yo this is a stick up
A whole lot of dirt was bout to kick up
I had screens in my pocket
And man, tonights my date
Wit smokey sue, now what was I to do?
In my head Im thinking, should I dodge the bullet?
man this kid is bluffin you can pull it
I feared the whole scene,
The shooter didnt bluff
Now look at me now,
He shot my ass dead
(yeah)
(you shouldnt have)
(I did, so lets get in the van)
(you shouldnt have)
(I did, so get in the fucking van!)
(I love you babe)
(i.. I love you babe)
(I love you babe)
(I love you babe)
Skeezer skeezer skeezer
Skeezer skeezer skeezer
Skeezer skeezer skeezer
Skeezer skeezer skeezer!
