“De La Soul guest on Fallon, perform “Stakes is High” with The Roots”
Posdnuos and Maseo spoke about their music’s long journey to streaming and memories of creating their classic debut album, 3 Feet High and Rising.
De La Soul guested on The Tonight Show Starring Jimmy Fallon on Thursday (March 16). Posdnuos and Maseo, the legendary hip-hop group’s surviving members first sat down for an interview with Fallon about the group’s music and its return to streaming in the wake of the death of Dave a.k.a.

Following the chat, De La took the stage with The Roots to perform “Stakes Is High,” the title track from their 1996 LP.
