De La Soul! We learn so much with this one, checking in with some old school rap from a simpler time when samples were just samples, and real instruments were part of the creation of songs. It feels fitting that album #103 features a 3 in the title. We hope you enjoy this look back at their iconic album, 3 Feet High And Rising! As a reminder, you can find our favorite songs from t
