De La Soul’s 3 Feet High and Rising (1989) is a landmark debut that helped define alternative hip hop. Produced by Prince Paul, the album stood out in the gangsta rap era with its playful, sample-rich sound and positive vibe, leading to the “D.A.I.S.Y. Age” label. Featuring hits like “Me Myself and I” and “The Magic Number,” it topped critics’ polls, including Village Voice’s Pazz & Jop, and earned spots on Rolling Stone’s 500 Greatest Albums and The Source’s 100 Best Rap Albums. It’s widely credited as a foundational work in jazz rap and '90s alt-hip-hop.
