AUDIO: De La Soul – Get Away ft. The Spirit of The Wu

Stumbling upon the original sample from Wu-Tang Clan’s intro on Disc two of Wu-Tang Forever, De La Soul comes through and drops their new song “Get Away”.  Out of respect for the Wu the trip also included “the spirit of the wu” as a feature.  The groups last project The Grind Date was released back in 2004.  You’re Welcome is anticipated to release this upcoming fall.  I’m definintely feeling this record and can’t wait to see what else they come out with as the release date approaches closer and closer.  Expect visuals for “Get Away” soon as well.
