De La Soul - The Making of 'Me Myself and I' (Vevo Footnotes)

Old school hip-hop fans are rightly celebrating the digital arrival of De La Soul's wildly inventive catalog, and the modern rap audience now has a chance to see what all the exclamation is about. "Me Myself and I" is from their 1989 masterpiece, '3 Feet High And Rising.' Our Footnotes franchise gets into the making of the most entertaining vids around, and to celebrate the 50th anniversary of hip-hop, we had the group's Posdnuos explain both conception and execution. Find out about the 'Twilight Zone' intro, the Jungle Brothers groove, that Funkadelic sample, the Q-Tip cameo, and dude who writes "De La Sucks" on the bathroom wall. R.I.P. Trugoy the Dove.
