De La Soul’s Tiny Desk Concert

Ok, you know this is going to be a good one: De La Soul plays a Tiny Desk Concert.

The humor of De La Soul has always been one of its calling cards. When DJ Maseo tells the Tiny Desk crowd, “Ladies and gentlemen, we’re a new group called De La Soul,” he means it as a joke. But, in so many ways, one of the most influential groups in hip-hop is new: the duties have been reassessed, the focus has shifted and the newness of The Plugs is laid plain here at the Tiny Desk.

Here’s the setlist:

YUHDONTSTOP
Will Be
Much More
Stakes is High
Sunny Storms
Different World
Breakadawn
Pony Ride
A Quick 16 for Mama
Me Myself and I

Feel free to dance at your desk or in your kitchen or wherever you’re listening.
