I have some ideas for other members of the group but if anyone has any suggestions plss share bc I'm stuck for now. I guess I want Optimus to be the singer and Rachet could be like their manager or something.
I gave him 'spider bites' because I really want them but at this moment I can't :£
I think he would like music from the 90's and early 2000's
I thought about giving him a lot of car stickers (to look like tattoos) but eventually resigned because i didn't know what kind of stickers would look good on him. It was a fun idea but maybe for later.
RIP Trugoy The Dove, De La Soul co-founder/rapper 🙏🏾
I found out this news late af but I’m not gonna lie this one hit me HARD. 😢
Back in high school, De La Soul was everything I aspired to. They are the rap group that made me want to seriously do music.
Their crazy ass rhymes and daring use of sampling Old School classic records and turning them into a whole new sound (big up their producer on the first album, DJ Prince Paul) just blew my teenaged mind at the same. I had loved Run-DMC, Boogie Down Productions, UTFO, Doug E Fresh, Slick Rick etc before they came along but once I heard their debut single “Plug Tuning” they became the nee standard that I aspired to.

Right after my high school best friend Anton Lewis heard that sontg, he immediately renamed himself the rapper A Le Wiz and I became MC Number One lol (tbh I first used the name MC EZ Rock but then Rob Base & DJ EZ Rock came out with “It Takes Two” so I had to change it lol).
Then we got our hands on De La Soul’s debut album “3 Feet High And Rising” and became even more obsessed with their super intelligent and poetic rhyme style that didn’t focus on sounding “tough” or “street”.

Songs like “Potholes In My Lawn”, “The Magic Nunber” and “Buddy” featuring The Jungle Bros, Tribe Called Quest, Queen Latifah and even more.

And then their mosnter jam “Me Myself And I” became THE JAM of summer 1989 and literally everyone worldwide knew and loved De La Soul which made me super happy and proud. 😊

Thank you Posdnous, Trugoy The Dove and DJ Pace Master Mase for so many years of great music and even greater memories over the years to the soundtrack of later hits like “Ring Ring Ring (Ha Ha Hey)”, “A Rollerskating Jam Called ‘Saturdays’”.

Not to mention Trugoy The Dove’s awesome feature on the hook of A Tribe Called Quest’s classic, “Award Tour”. 🙌🏾 (RIP to my all time fave Trini rapper Phife Dawg from A Tribe Called Quest, who passed away back in 2016🕊️)
