Having been a fan of De La Soul for a while I was pleased to find out that they were releasing a "best of" album. Having only heard a limited amount of perhaps their more well known material (The Magic Number, Eye Know, Oooh etc) I was looking forward to getting a taste of some of their other work. I was not disapointed. The Album is fantastic. The main CD includes some of the finest HipHop tunes ever produced.
The track listing is below:
Me Myself and I Say No Go Eye Know The Magic Number Potholes In My Lawn Buddy - featuring JUngle Brothers, Q-Tip & Phife Ring Ring Ring (Ha Ha Hey) A Roller Skating Jam Named "Saturdays" Keepin' The Faith Breakadawn Stakes is High 4 More - featuring Zhane Oooh All Good? - feat. Chaka Khan Thru Ya City - feat D.V. Alias Khrist Baby Phat - feat Devin The Dude & Elizabeth "Yummy" Bingham Watch Out
Listening to this CD really makes you appreciate music. It never gets boring, you just want to play it again and again! To make it even better I bought the limited edition copy which includes an extra bonus CD which is like another album in its own right! Stuffed full of collaberations and alternative versions the bonus CD just makes the whole package even more desirable.
Stuff all this commercial modern crap like Nelly, the original HipHop is and always will be the best of the best!

Sorry for the low rating, but if you add something about either the whole track listing or pick out your favourite and write a bit about them, I'll happily re-rate.
