De La Soul dodges sentimentality on first album since Trugoy’s passing
De La Soul returns with Cabin in the Sky, a 20-track album charged with nostalgia and reflection. It marks the trio's first release since David “Trugoy the Dove” Jolicoeur’s passing, yet avoids sentimentality, weaving in his presence through samples and lyrics.
Spearheaded by Nas’s “Legend Has It” series, the project resists algorithmic pressures and instead leans on vibrant wordplay, skits, and playful irreverence, maintaining the group’s signature defiance of conformity.

De La Soul returns with "Cabin in the Sky," their 10th studio album dropping November 21. The lead single, "The Package," surfaces as a brooding reflection wrapped in beat-driven introspection.
The project signals both remembrance and release, threading therapy through rhythm while tiptoeing into celebration. Framed as a statement rather than a revival, the album seems less preoccupied with nostalgia and more with evolving past survival into significance.

De La Soul resurfaces with Cabin in the Sky, their first studio album in nearly ten years, threading grief and continuity with brittle poise. The project pays tribute to Dave "Trugoy the Dove" Jolicoeur, who passed in 2023, folding memory into production without veering into melodrama.
The group sidesteps nostalgia traps, opting instead for a work that processes loss like a half-finished verse—never resolved, but rhythmically persistent.
