“Stakes Is High” = my favorite De La song. “Stakes Is High” also = my favorite Dilla production. Props to BMuse.

PREVIOUS: De La Soul Live @ The Key Club (Video)

The time has arrived folks. Mick Boogie’s The Honor Roll mixtape is right around the firewall. Look for it to drop tonight (via Boogie & eskay) while VH1’s Hip Hop Honors airs on the tube. While you wait you know Shake had to drop an exclusive from our fam U-N-I right? In part 1 of Stakes is High 2008, Thurz & Y-O remake the classic De La Soul cut with 6th Sense on the boards (Talib is on part 2 for your information). TSS sat down with Mick, 6th & Dan to reconstruct the project, check it. And since I’m cool like that, click the image above for the full artwork on the single and the jump for the tracklist…
