De La Soul 3 Feet High And Rising LP Album vinyl record limited Yellow 2023

A revolutionary moment in hip‑hop history, 3 Feet High and Rising reshaped the genre with its playful surrealism, dense sample collage and conscious, free‑spirited lyricism. Prince Paul’s groundbreaking production and De La Soul’s inventive approach created a colourful, sample‑rich universe that still feels fresh decades later. This 2023 European 2×LP yellow opaque 180‑gram reissue restores the album to premium vinyl form after years of sample‑clearance limbo, making it an essential pickup for collectors and fans of golden‑era creativity.
