Released in 1996, it was their fourth album and their first made without Prince Paul, opening the door to a tougher, more stripped-back sound led in part by a then-unknown J Dilla producing the title track. That lead single became one of the group's signature statements, reaching No. 53 on Billboard's Hot R\u0026amp;B\/Hip-Hop Songs chart, while the album climbed to No. 4 on the Top R\u0026amp;B\/Hip-Hop Albums chart. The numbers only tell part of it: Stakes Is High endures because it hears De La Soul confronting the mid-90s head-on, with wit, frustration, and real artistic confidence, from The Bizness to Itzsoweezee (HOT). It didn't shout the loudest on arrival, but its influence has only grown since. This 30th anniversary box set collects the original album, full instrumentals, and a side of bonus material across four discs of spoke effect black and white vinyl, packaged in a book box with a UV print of Dave, David Jolicoeur, on the vinyl itself.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eVINYL 4xLP BOOK BOX SET\u003c\/strong\u003e, Spoke Effect Black \u0026amp; White Vinyl, UV Print Tribute Vinyl, Boxed Set, Remastered, Explicit Content, Chrysalis Records, 2026\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eDisc 1\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003ch4\u003eSide A\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003col\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eIntro\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSupa Emcees\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eThe Bizness (feat.
