Product description

2019 collection. It wasn't really a movement, barely even a moment, but the Daisy Age was an ethos that permeated pop, R&B and hip hop at the turn of the '90s. Playfulness and good humor were central to de la Soul's 1989 debut album, 3 Feet High And Rising, which would go on to cast a long, multi-colored shadow over rap. In Britain, the timing for 3 Feet High And Rising couldn't have been better. The acid house explosion of 1988 would lead to a radical breaking down of musical barriers in 1989, and it's associated look - loose clothing, dayglo colors, smiley faces - chimed with the positivity of de la Soul and rising New York rap acts the Jungle Brothers and A Tribe Called Quest, all at the heart of a growing collective called Native Tongues. The Native Tongues' charismatic, summery aura quickly spread west to the Bay Area's similarly-minded Hieroglyphics crew (Del Tha Funky Homosapien's 'Mistadobalina'); Canada's Dream Warriors ('My Definition Of A Boombastic Jazz Style') used 3 Feet High"s color palette and borrowed Count Basie and Quincy Jones riffs; Naughty By Nature (OPP) were mentored by Native Tongues heroine Queen Latifah, while Londoner Monie Love was also adopted by the collective, resulting in her Grammy-nominated 'It's A Shame (My Sister)'. It wasn't built to last, but the Daisy Age reintroduced Multiplication Rock, bubble writing and the gently psychedelic into the charts. It was a brief, but extraordinarily warm and optimistic moment. The songs on this collection promised that the '90s would be a lot more easy-going than the '80s.

    Stellar compilation, played it several times. While there's a lot of great modern hip hop this funky series of tracks with colorful samples and organic beats proves they don't make hip hop in this vein anymore. If youre a fan of three feet and rising, the low end theory this is a must.

    4.0 out of 5 stars Excellent compilation of short-lived period of progressive early 90s hip-hop ......
    Reviewed in the United Kingdom on 28 September 2019
    Verified Purchase
    In what is quite a left field turn for the legendary UK reissue label, Ace Records, is this excellent compilation of early 90s progressive hip-hop from the short-lived Native Tongues collective (and related acts). I believe Ace has never gone near hip-hop before so it is quite a moment for them to delve in this genre though I believe it is due to a Bob Stanley connection who has contributed to the liners and I suspect has also influenced (if not downright picked) the tracklisting. Bob Stanley of course being both musician (St. Etienne) and expert curator of some of the best Ace compilations of recent years.

    To the details, this compilations details the emergence of De La Soul and the Jungle Brothers and then the full flowering in the sadly short lived Native Tongues collective who produced brilliant hip-hop in the late 80s / early 90s with sometimes whimsical / sometimes perceptive / sometimes hard hitting lyrics backed by a heady brew of brillantly amalgamated samples from all genres; funk, soul, rock, sunshine pop, psych, etc, etc. Great music in other words but short lived partly because those evocative samples ultimately had to be paid for which brought things to a crashing halt when the bills came in.

    For an Ace compilation there are a surprising number of acknowledged classics such as the arguably over-exposed 'Bonita Applebum' but it is almost all good stuff sometimes delightfully so such as the excavation of the heavily P-Funk influenced (and agreeably goofy) Digital Underground. It would be a strange though welcome development if Ace sold enough of these to proceed further into the Hip-Hop realm which is severely under-populated with respect to decent compilations..... I have my fingers crossed for a sequel but we shall see. But for a first dip of the toe in the water you can't do much better than this..... very highly recommended for that brief shining period before hip-hop disappeared down the misogynistic 'gangster' rabbit hole from which it has never really managed to emerge.

    The first hip hop record I ever loved was '3 feet high and rising' by De La Soul, and this is a collection of artists coming from the same place, more or less (I mean, you can quibble if you like about whether Naughty By Nature are Daisy Age, and some songs are later than 1989) but this is a fun party album of positive sample based hip hop, and as such is highly recommended, if you like that sort of thing, which you should

    Eine unfassbar coole Zusammenstellung die man nicht verpassen sollte.
    Sehr warmherziger Hip Hop und R`n B den man einzeln heute auf dem Flohmarkt suchen und teuer bezahlen würde.
    Von De La Soul, A Tribe Called Quest, Del Tha Funkeé Homosapien, Digital Underground, Black Sheep, Dream Warriors, Digable Planets, Monie Love, Justin Warfield, Brand nubian und noch so einige reihen sich auf dieser Compilation aneinander und nehmen einen mit in eine Zeit, in der Hip Hop nicht nur Gangster, "wer ist cooler" - oder wer hat die Bitches am Start war.
    Leider kein Download - dafür unglaubliche warme Beats die in keiner guten Plattensammlung fehlen sollten!
