De La Soul cut ties with Tommy Boy Records after battle over back catalog: “That old enslaved record label contract dinosaur is long dead and gone, but unfortunately still stinks”
“Tommy Boy says they are ‘not in the business of giving artists back their Masters.’ We realize, there is a process in reclaiming ownership but we do not trust Tommy Boy in this process after so many years of disappointment. Therefore, our catalog will not see the light of day by way of our involvement or consent.”
De La Soul continued, “This means, if you see De La Soul music/albums available for streaming or purchase anywhere, BE AWARE, all parties involved WILL profit but De La Soul WILL NOT benefit or earn deservedly/fairly. We really tried.” At press time, De La Soul’s Tommy Boy-era albums were still unavailable on streaming services. The group pledged to continue recording and releasing under their own terms: In 2016, De La Soul released their Kickstarter-funded LP“We wish Tommy Boy no ills but we do call for a boycott of anything bearing the name,” De La Soul wrote Sunday. “Karma will do the rest… that old enslaved record label contract dinosaur is long dead and gone, but unfortunately still stinks.
