De La Soul Unveil Cabin in the Sky, Describing Their New Album as “Therapy and Celebration”

De La Soul are set to release Cabin in the Sky, their first studio album in nine years, on November 21. The new project marks their first since the passing of founding member David “Trugoy the Dove” Jolicoeur in 2023, a loss deeply felt by fans and the group alike.

The album will be their 10th studio release, following 2016’s And the Anonymous Nobody, which earned a Grammy nomination for Best Rap Album. This new record brings together an impressive lineup of collaborators, including DJ Premier, Super Dave, Pete Rock, and features from Killer Mike, Yukimi from Little Dragon, Common, Nas, and Black Thought. Its lead single, “The Package,” is available now.

Cabin in the Sky lives in that space between loss and light. It’s about the pain we carry and the joy that somehow still finds us. This album is therapy and celebration at the same time. There’s a vulnerability in these songs, because everything we’ve been through has brought us to this moment, to this album, honoring what we’ve lost and lifting up what still remains. That duality. That’s life, and that’s De La,” said Posdnuos in a statement shared in a press release.

The upcoming record will also serve as the sixth installment in Mass Appeal’s Legend Has It series, which spotlights seven legendary hip-hop acts including Slick Rick, Raekwon, Ghostface Killah, Mobb Deep, Big L, De La Soul, and Nas/DJ Premier.

“The music on this record is not old, just seasoned. It’s what we call adult hip-hop: something rooted in the culture but speaking to where we are now. The beauty is that it still connects with the younger heads too. They can feel the honesty, the craft, and that De La Soul DNA running through it. We’re bridging generations with this one,” Maseo said of the album.
