De La Soul’s Albums Are Now available on digital stores online
Is Just a week following the passing of Trugoy the Dove, the hip-hop legends’ have finally Distributed there song on digital stores after years
De La Soul have, not long, posted their albums previously released by Tommy Boy Records on digital stores.
The albums was posted just weeks following the death of Trugoy the Dove at age 54. .
Ten days after Trugoy’s death, Maseo and Posdnuos wrote letters to their late bandmate and friend.
“On one end I’m happy you no longer have to suffer the pain of your condition but on the other hand I’m extremely upset at the fact that you’re not here to celebrate and enjoy what we worked and fought so hard to achieve,” Maseo wrote.
De La’s records were having streaming platforms issue due to sample clearance issues.
In 2019, Trugoy said in an interview that their streaming troubles were risen with Tommy Boy’s Tom Silverman.
“Tommy Boy—Tom Silverman, in particular—didn’t think that 3 Feet High and Rising was going to do well at all,” he said.
“Because of that reason, they decided not to clear stuff.”
It appeared that they would finally become available in 2019, but then the group noted they would only earn “pennies” due to Tommy Boy’s contract terms.
The streaming drop was scrapped after a public outcry. The dispute was resolved, the band revealed in 2021, after Reservoir acquired Tommy Boy.
