28:05Now PlayingMSNBC’s Ari Melber welcomes Kelvin “Posdnuos ” Mercer and Vincent “Maseo” Mason from De La Soul, the iconic Hip Hop group, to a special tribute set in the MSNBC newsroom as the artists mark their debut on streaming platforms. They discuss how De La Soul’s innovative style and music sampling was a signature sound and “collage” approach - a precursor of the micro-sampling of today’s AI technology - yet it was held against them by business interests in the streaming era. They also reflect on the loss of their third member, David “Trugoy the Dove” Jolicoeur; their improv approach to poetry and bars; current artists like Griselda, Benny the Butcher and Lil Uzi Vert, and advice for young people today. This is an extended digital interview, excerpts aired on MSNBC.
