De La Soul is probably the last group in Hip-Hop from the 80's that really knows how to make REAL* quality music that's addictive and actually works.De La Soul has always been the group that gets it when it comes to making music right along with The Beastie Boys.They know that making music isn't all about the almighty dollar.They make music because they love it and they love sounds.De La has never sold out to any certain sound that they did'nt wanna fuck with for which I give them the ultimate respect for. *cold* is just some lonely empty character that has no life so decides to create some sort of immature attention through the internet since it's such an easy source to be immature on so that's why they do it.He probably doesn't even know who De La Soul is but yet knows who Eminem is due to his enormous popularity. of course he's cold because his life will be forever cold and pathetic!

@ dap,
U already know that's the IN thing 2 do in Hip Hop, these days, 4 some strange reason, legends get NO love, instead of praising veteran MCs like De La Soul or Kool G Rap, suckers would rather diss them & call them "old" or "washed up" when that MC spits better than these wack cookie cutter rappers.
