Mirror Mirror On the Wall

Released towards the end of 1988/beginning of '89, today's rap is the unusual style and beats of the trio known as De La Soul. The song hit #1 on the R&B charts and is largely regarded as the group's signature song to this day. The humorous video features the trio stuck in Prof DefBeat's class on how to be a stereotypical rapper. Cool song, funny video, here are the three fellows from Long Island (Kelvin Mercer (Posdnuos, Mercenary, Plug Wonder Why, Plug One), David Jude Jolicoeur (Trugoy the Dove, Dave, Plug Two) and Vincent Mason (P.A. Pasemaster Mase, Maseo, Plug Three, Baby Huey) known as De La Soul with "Me, Myself, and I"...
