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.
