It was released on March 3, 1989, by Tommy Boy. It marked the first of three full-length collaborations with producer Prince Paul, which would become the critical and commercial peak of both parties. Critically, as well as commercially, the album was a success. It contains the singles, \"Me Myself and I,\" \"The Magic Number,\" \"Buddy,\" and \"Eye Know.\" The album title came from the Johnny Cash song \"Five Feet High and Rising.\"\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eIt is listed on Rolling Stone's 200 Essential Rock Records and The Source's 100 Best Rap Albums (both of which are unordered). When Village Voice held its annual Pazz \u0026amp; Jop Critics Poll for 1989, 3 Feet High and Rising was ranked at #1, outdistancing its nearest opponent (Neil Young's Freedom) by 21 votes and 260 points. It was also listed on the Rolling Stone's The 500 Greatest Albums of All Time.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eReleased amid the 1989 boom in gangsta rap, which gravitated towards hardcore, confrontational, violent lyrics, De La Soul's uniquely positive style made them an oddity beginning with the first single, \"Me, Myself and I.\" Their positivity meant many observers labeled them a \"hippie\" group, based on their declaration of the \"D.A.I.S.Y. Age\" (da inner sound, y'all).\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eSampling artists as diverse as Hall \u0026amp; Oates, Steely Dan and The Turtles, 3 Feet High and Rising is often viewed as the stylistic beginning of 1990s alternative hip hop (and especially jazz rap). It was ranked 7 in Spin's \"100 Greatest Albums, 1985-2005, \" ranked 88th in a 2005 survey held by British television's Channel 4 to determine the 100 greatest albums of all time. In 1998, the album was selected as one of The Source's 100 Best Rap Albums. In 2003, the album was ranked number 346 on Rolling Stone magazine's list of the 500 greatest albums of all time. In 2006, Q magazine placed the album at #20 in its list of \"40 Best Albums of the '80s.\" In 2012, Slant Magazine listed the album at #9 on its list of \"Best Albums of the 1980s.\" The album was also included in the book 1001 Albums You Must Hear Before You Die.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e3 Feet High and Rising was among 25 albums chosen as additions to the Library of Congress' 2010 National Recording Registry for being cultural and aesthetically and also for its historical impact. (Coincidentally, Steely Dan's album Aja, from which 3 Feet High and Rising samples, was also named to the registry that year.) The album is also credited with introducing the hip hop skit, a style of comedic sketch used both to introduce rap albums and as interludes between songs.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eTracklisting\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003eSide A:\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003col\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eIntro\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eThe Magic Number\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eChange In Speak\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eCool Breeze On The Rocks\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eCan U Keep A Secret\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eJenifa Taught Me (Derwin's Revenge)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eGhetto Thang\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ol\u003e\u003ch4\u003eSide B:\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003col\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eTransmitting Live From Mars\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eEye Know\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eTake It Off\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eA Little Bit Of Soap\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eTread Water\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003ePotholes In My Lawn\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ol\u003e\u003ch4\u003eSide C:\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003col\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSay No Go\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eDo As De La Does\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003ePlug Tunin' (Last Chance To Comprehend)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eDe La Orgee\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eBuddy\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ol\u003e\u003ch4\u003eSide D:\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003col\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eDescription\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eMe Myself And I\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eThis Is A Recording\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eLiving In A Fulltime Era (L.I.F.E.)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eI Can Do Anything (Delacratic)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eD.A.I.S.Y.
