Stakes Is High marks a turning point for De La Soul, as they move away from their playful, eclectic roots and embrace a more mature, socially conscious sound. With insightful lyrics and jazz-infused beats, it’s a reflective, introspective album that confronts issues of identity, hip-hop culture, and the changing landscape of the genre, all while maintaining the group’s signature sense of authenticity and creativity.
