De La Soul's first six albums are scheduled to hit streaming services on Friday (March 3). But sadly, one of the members won't be there to celebrate. Trugoy The Dove, one of the trio's founding members, died unexpectedly on February 12, less than a month before the highly anticipated event.
To honor De La Soul's fallen brother, Amazon Music will present "The D.A.I.S.Y. Experience" at New York City's Webster Hall on Thursday (March 2), just one day before the albums are finally made available. Not only will it honor Trugoy's life and legacy, it will also highlight the indelible impact fellow De La members Posdnuos and Maseo have had on the culture.
The venue will be transformed with artwork from the the New York City-bred trio's seminal 1989 debut, 3 Feet High and Rising, while The Originals (Stretch Armstrong, Clark Kent, Rich Medina and Tony Touch) will provide a curated DJ set for the crowd.
Fans can watch the event unfold on Maseo’s Twitch channel beginning at 8 p.m. ET. Amazon Music's Twitch channel will livestream a series of carefully selected interviews beginning at 10:30 p.m. ET.
