buhloone mind state. odd name. but for true hip-hop fans, this is arguably the greatest work ever done by de la soul, who themselves are legends in the rap game. it was an album i bought a long time ago, and it took me several listens to like it. at first, i dismissed it. too different. i picked it up again about a year later, and it had all changed. it holds my favourite song of theirs: "i am, i be" - a beautiful off-paced exhibition of lyricism. "breakadawn" is just a damn funky song. the beats and rhymes of "in the woods" and "ego trippin" are simply incredible. and then it all takes a pace down with the beautifully mellow "i be blowin'" with horn legend maceo parker. de la know the score that all modern music comes from jazz anyway. a true hip-hop album, containing experimental stuff, with good old beats and a whole lot of finesse. buy it today.
Advantages: Lots of big tunes Disadvantages: Overrated
The Alternative Hip Hop trio DeLaSoul (consisting of Posdnuos, Maseo and Trugoy) released their third album in 1993, and it saw that the Jazz Rap act brought ?Buloone Mindstae?, a record that many consider to be a classic for its high quality and originality that had transferred itself from the debut they brought in 1989 when ?3 Feet And Rising? dropped and they changed the Hip Hop world.
1. ?Intro?
2. ?Eye Patch?
As the album gets underway you find that they get things started with a tune that immediately lets you know that we are in for nothing but high quality material from them as they come through with a short tune that has them bringing material that shows that they are simply making the most of what they are known for and are developing it with the times (even though it doesn?t really fit any contemporary trends).

Album Notes
De La Soul: Posdnuos, Trugoy The Dove, Mase. Additional personnel: Shortie No Mass, Melvin Parker, Rodney Jones, Larry Goldings, Frank Wes, SDP, Takagi Kan, May May Ali. Recorded at Sorcerer Studio, Magic Shop, Unique Studio, Platinum Island, River Sound, New York. The third album from De La Soul, BUHLOONE MIND STATE, stresses the importance of discovery of self. Tracks like "I AM I Be" and "Ego Trippin'" force a kind of deep self-cleansing introspection. BUHLOONE MIND STATE is also another example of how lyrically challenging this group of MCs has always been. Sax legend Maceo Parker joins the crew to blow impressively on "I Be Blowin'." There are also appearances from Guru and Biz Markie. Though BUHLOONE MIND STATE isn't De La Soul's greatest-selling album, it might be the group's deepest and most creative. Its 11 songs prove that it's not quantity that counts, but quality.
Album Reviews
Vibe (11/93, p.104) - "...BUHLOONE MINDSTATE signals [De La Soul's] maturation as hip hop artists minus the pop hype and hysteria surrounding [3 FEET HIGH AND RISING]...a rap classic..." Rolling Stone (12/23/93, p.156) - "...By no means have De La Soul lost the dada carnival spirit that spotlighted them in the late '80's but [they] are decidedly less gigglesome..." Spin (11/93, p.127) - Highly Recommended - "...Like sweet flavors, De La Soul grants feelings of inclusion....If you didn't get [BUHLOONE MIND STATE], you can act like you know and [De La Soul] wouldn't care--you could be in anyway..." Musician (1/94, p.92) - "...BUHLOONE MINDSTATE is [De La Soul's] most focused, consistent album to date...a welcome return to form..." Village Voice (3/1/94, p.5) - Ranked #8 in the Village Voice's 1993 Pazz & Jop Critics Poll. NME (9/25/93, p.37) - (8) - Excellent - "...Whatever the BUHLOONE MIND STATE it's at least balanced...it's funkier, jazzier, and more irascible follow up proper..." Entertainment Weekly (10/8/93, p.52) - "...on BUHLOONE MINDSTATE, we find a more firmly rooted De La Soul....its beats are simple, but the tracks are alive with intricate layering and small touches that make them undeniably catchy...A funky smooth ride..." - Rating: A+
