Music : Stakes Is Highby: De La Soul
Disc 1:
Average Rating:
![]() Rating: - Underrated Classic!Great to see so many other reviewers echoing what I'm feeling about this record - its absolute quality! Love the flow of it, every track is focussed and is a real pleasure to listen to - whilst most people have got/ heard 3 Feet High (and don't get me wrong it's a great album), far less people have heard Stakes is High and its a shame because it shows how much De La Have evolved as a group... If you don't have it - buy it now! Then drop a review on Amazon telling everyone ...

The trio have progressed from the reliance on punch-lines and antique samples to more socially concious rhymes and doper-than-dope head-nod compositions. Three Feet is cool, but it lacks the maturity and depth of this work, and despite the amazing rhyme schemes in De La Soul Is Dead, it just had too many skits and not enough solid beats. Unlike the much overlooked Bulhoone Mindstate, Stake Is High has a perfect balance, every ... Read More Rating: - De La Soul's GreatestThe best, but also the most neglected De La Soul album in my oppinion. No real weak tracks here and it's got the fantastic title track; "Stakes is high" - one of my all time favourites. Enjoy!
