Trugoy from De La Soul '68-'23

Cypress Hill is the best rap group ever

Never been a big-enough fan of rap to have fave artists but I do recall back-in-the-day De La Soul used to get a lot of play on MTv especially with their song "Me Myself and I" and I recall De La Soul being held in high-regard by other artists - I also appreciated they didn't come across as thugs nor try to act that way but just avg guys from the neighborhood.

Sad he went so young.

Was just looking at their Wikipedia-page and it says Trugoy's name is yogurt spelled-backwards bc he liked yogurt

Native Tongues. If you know you know. These guys were the exact opposite of gangsta rap coming out of Cali at the time.

One of my favorite De La Soul songs is “Run - are you in?” A 45 minute workout song they did for Nike+ which I’ve listened to a million of times.
