That goes for "Buhloone" as well, which as you rightly point out is slept on more than Select Comfort mattresses.

AllHipHop.com: Buhloone Mindstate is an amazing album. Ten years later, how do you feel about it now? Why do you think it's so slept on?

Dave: Ummm, me personally, I hated Buhloone Mindstate. That was one album I did not like.

AllHipHop.com: Why Not? Can you go into this a little further?

Dave: I didn’t like the album because I think we were just a little too creative. And to me, you should never use the phrase ‘too creative’. But I think we took it a little too far. You know I think there was a big influence on us at the time from groups we were hanging out with. Like Tribe and so many others on the Jazz tip. I just felt it went a little to the left or who we were as people and what we were accustomed to at the time. Like some of the songs personally didn’t want to do. ‘Patty Duke’ [and] ‘Area Codes’ I didn’t want to do.

AllHipHop.com: How about ‘Break A Dawn’?

Dave: ‘Break A Dawn’ I hated as well. I didn’t want that to be the first single. That’s just me personally.

Then I was mostly underwhelmed by "Stakes" and the AOI albums (I remember Bionix being awesome in parts and dull in others, whereas Mosaic Thump never really took off the ground for me). So now that I've got a new De La album I can play practically nonstop, I might be going overboard in expressing my love for it.

"He Comes" both A: rocks and B: has Ghostface rocking shit, which means it rocks to the trillionth power because right now Ghostface is my favorite MC in the entire business.
