De La Soul will “celebrate the life & legacy of Dave and the release of our catalog,” on streaming platforms with a special concert in NYC.

De La Soul will pay tribute to the late Trugoy The Dove with a special concert in his honor in New York City this week at the iconic Webster Hall. 

“The DA.I.S.Y. Experience,” will take place just one day before the group’s first six albums—including 1989’s groundbreaking debut 3 Feet High & Rising—will be available on streaming for the first time. 

The concert will honor the life, legacy, and music of Trugoy The Dove while celebrating the group’s music landing on DSPs.  

“We are coming together to celebrate the life & legacy of Dave and the release of our catalog with a very special DA.I.S.Y. Experience in New York City this Thursday, March 2nd,” De La Soul announced on Instagram.
