    Whats the general consensus of this guy? I have the album Future Development and I think he has a really cool style and flow.

    Del is excellent, he has a few great albums, most notibly Deltron 3030. This is a must for everyones album collection. His latest album The 11th Hour is I think very underestimated. Also, he is part of a group called Hierogliphics that have a couple of albums, 3rd Eye Vision is a must have.

    But, he would not be everyones cup of bovril but he is a favorite of mine.
    He also has an intersting history, his first album Brother George was co-written and produced by Ice Cube and he was involved in writing lyrics for Da Lench Mob...to now where he is on Def Jux.

    Cheers Boom, will have to check that link out. I find him a little hit and miss, but when he's good he's damn good

    you can listen to all his albums there also and there are links to lyrics and the whatnot....i'm working my way through it all at the moment.

    Hopefully my boss will accept listening to all Del's albums as an excuse for low productivity! :D

    Love Del... I Wish My Brother George is one of my favourite albums, Deltron is certainly one of the most interesting concept albums in rap, and Hiero are just class (The best of West Coast Alternative Rap right there.)

    His stuff with Gorillaz is pretty cool too. And he has such a unique sounding voice that it just adds loads of depth to his flow.
