We've been Prince Paul fans since we were kids, starting with his production for De La Soul's first three albums. From Stetsasonic, Big Daddy Kane, 3rd Bass to Gravediggaz, Handsome Boy Modeling School & Dr. Octagon, this tribute takes you through some of our favorites from the Doo Doo Man's storied career. Plus you get to hear some rarities from MF Doom, a very young Jay-Z and even Marvin Gaye!

Special thanks to Brian Coleman for linking us with Prince Paul - be sure to seek out his Check the Technique books and our companion mixes - and the Spitkicker crew for hooking us up with De La Soul back in the day.

And if you haven't been listening to Prince Paul & Open Mike Eagle's podcast, "What Had Happened Was," in which Paul tells the stories of albums and groups he's worked with throughout his career, we can't recommend it more highly: starburns.audio/podcasts/what-...ad-happened-was
