It sounds great -- and exactly like what you'd expect a 2019 collaboration between DJ Shadow and De La Soul to sound like. My only complaint would be "why did it take them this long to work together?" My primary complaint about "The Outsider" is that many of his guests were beneath him, but that's obviously not the case here.

ReplyDeleteDJ Shadow has released another excellent single, "Urgent, Important, Please Read", from his forthcoming LP. Like the previous two, he also includes the backstory.
