De La Soul to reissue 3 Feet High and Rising in celebration of its 35th anniversary
De La Soul, the iconic hip-hop group celebrated for their innovative sound and timeless contributions to the genre, will reissue their debut album, 3 Feet High and Rising, to mark its 35th anniversary.
The commemorative release will include not only the original tracks that captivated audiences three decades ago, but also a selection of bonus tracks. Among these are previously digitally unreleased "Freedom Of Speak (We Got Three Minutes)”, as well as "Ain’t Hip to be Labelled a Hippie," "What's More," fan favorite "Jenifa Taught Me (12” Version)," and two original demos from DJ Maseo’s basement "Plug Tunin’" (Home Demo) and "Freedom Of Speak (We Got Three Minutes)" (Home Demo).
All tracks have been remastered in Stereo and Atmos and come one year after the celebratory release of the band’s six back catalog albums on all streaming services.
3 Feet High and Rising (35th Anniversary) is set for release on 1 March, and is available to pre-save now.
