Product Description

Amazon.com essential recording

The De La Plugs created the D.A.I.S.Y. (Da Inna Sound, Y'all) philosophy on their brilliant and weird debut, Three Feet High and Rising (making them the first--and probably only--hip-hop act to appropriate a Johnny Cash song for their album title). Then they tried to kill the Daisy with their follow-up, De La Soul Is Dead and then tried to find their way through the aftermath of that unnecessary act on Buh-Loone Mind State. Finally, a full three albums from their first, De La finds their footing with Stakes Is High. Here, they're no longer so self-conscious and it's easy to remember why you liked them enough in the first place to stick with them through the hard times. With unfaltering lyrical dexterity, they get to ask the question, "Whatever happened to the Emcees?" ("Super-Emcees"), skewer the industry ("The Bizness," with some help from that super MC, Common), and even shout out to their birthplace, Long Island, twice (on "Long Island Degrees" and the break-down-funky "Wonce Again Long Island"). --Todd Levin

5.0 out of 5 stars ジャケ通り、黒さと渋みが同居した快作, 2004/7/15
聴いていて決して心地の良いアルバムでは無いです。デラソウルのこれまでの3枚のアルバムにあった色が抜け(つまり第四のメンバー、PRINCE PAULの存在)一気に暗いトーンが全体を包み込む。以前のポジティブさ、例えばここにはもうローラースケート賛歌だとかエゴトリッピンなデラの姿だとかは無いです。とにかく太く重い鳴りをしたドラム、ネタの鳴らし方がタイトになり全体が大分スッキリとしてます。このアルバムの素晴らしい点はトレンドから外れた(外された)デラがその現実を真正面から受け入れ次のステップへと踏み込んだということ。地位やキャリアのあるアーティストが一箇所に落ち着いていくのを尻目に、デラは新たなクラシックを生み出す、これが強みであり、魅力でもあります。さて、今作がターニングポイントとなった訳ですが、音楽的な面においても先に挙げた点が大きく作用し、3人も自分らのトラックの上で伸び伸びと(その内容とは相反して)ラップしてます。JAYDEEとのタイトル曲、ラストの「SUNSHINE」など特筆すべきモノはいくつもあり、ファンでなくともそのリリックと共に一聴の価値あり。

5.0 out of 5 stars ジャケットからもう素晴らしい, 2008/3/27
By ANNA (東京都新小平市) - See all my reviews
デ・ラ・ソウルにとっての「暴動」といえば一発で理解してもらえるかも。プリンス・ポールによるチアフルな感触と引き替えに故JAY DEEによる冷たい残響。この人達のアルバムは全て傑作だと思ってるけど、ファーストからこのアルバムまでは全部マストでしょう。
全編緊張感に溢れた本作ですが、個人的には最後にパッと明るいコモドアーズ使いの「SUNSHINE」が。いきなりの大ネタなので本人達はたぶん半分遊びで作ったんだと思うけど、2 LIVE CREW の「 COOLIN '」と並ぶ、ダラダラ系ヒップホップの名作。クール&ザ・ギャングの「サマー・マッドネス」なんかが代表的ですが、ソウルやヒップホップで「夏」を取り扱った曲は、ほとんどが沸点低くてダラけてます。これは暑いわ仕事ないわどうもならんといった映画「フライデー」まんまの世界がいまだ伝統的に根づいてるからなんでしょうか。
