Lyrics
Three
That's the Magic Number
Yes it is
It's the magic number
Somewhere in this hip-hop soul community
Was born three: Mase, Dove, and me
And that's the magic number
(What does it all mean?)
Difficult preaching is Posdnuos' pleasure
Pleasure and preaching starts in the heart
Something that stimulates the music in the measure
Measure in the music, raised in three parts
Casually see but don't do like the Soul
Cause seein' and doin' are actions for monkeys
Doin' hip hop hustle, no rock and roll
Unless your name's Brewster, cause Brewster's a Punk (three)
Parents let go cause there's magic in the air
Criticizing rap shows you're out of order
Stop look and listen to the phrase ya Fred Astaire’s
And don't get offended while Mase do-si-do's your daughter
A tri-camera rolls since our music's now set
Fly rhymes are stored on a D.A.I.S.Y. production
It stands for "Da Inner Sound, Y'all" and y'all can bet
That the action's not a trick, but showing the function
Everybody wants to be a deejay
Everybody wants to be an emcee
But being speakers are the best
And you don't have to guess
De La Soul posse consists of three
And that's the magic number
(Three)
This here piece of the pie
Is not dessert but the course that we dine
And three out of every darn time
The effect is "Mmmm" when a daisy grows in your mind
Showing true position, this here piece is
Kissin' the part of the pie that's missin'
When that negative number fills up the casualty
Maybe you can subtract it
You can call it your lucky partner
Maybe you can call it your adjective
But odd as it may be
Without my one and two where would there be
My three
Mase Pos and Me
And that's the Magic Number
(What does it all mean?)
Focus is formed by flaunts to the soul
Souls who flaunt styles gain praises by pounds
Common are speakers who honor the scroll
Scroll written daily creates a new sound
Listeners listen cause this here is wisdom
Wisdom of a Speaker, a Dove and a Plug
Set aside a legal substance to feed ‘em
For now get 'em high off this dialect drug (Three)
Time is a factor so it's time that counts
Count not the negative actions of one
Speakers of soul say it's time to shout
Three forms the soul to a positive sum
Dance to this fix and flex every muscle
Space can be filled if you ride like my lumber
Advance to the tune but don't do the hustle
Shake, rattle, roll to my Magic Number (Three)
Now you may try to subtract it
But it just won't go away
Three times one?
(What is it?)
(One, two, three)
And that's a Magic Number
(Yo, what's up?)
(1, 2, 3)
(I say, children, what does it all mean?)
(Woah-woah-wo, 1, 2, 3)
(I wouldn't lie to you)
(No more no less, that's a magic number)
(No more no less)
(What is?)
(No more no less)
(Do the shing-a-ling)
(No more no less)
(Anybody in the audience ever get hit by a car?)
(No more no less)
(How high's the water, mama?)
(No more no less)
(How high's the water, mama?)
(No more no less)
(3 feet high and rising)
(No more no less)
(3)
(That's a magic number)

@moonlightw6 Yes , the actually video features people just randomly dancing . It's on you tube as well .
This is the story of this video… ---------------- There's no Al in this video... it's all AOl, it's a new algorithm only we have access to. ---------------- Just kidding. There's not a single generative Al element in this video. Only lots and lots of compositing. I'll share the story of it here for those who care to read it and cause it's super important to me. Almost 2 years ago we started a project to celebrate the rollout of the de la soul catalog with a series of six music videos that would be made to look as if they came out in each respective era of de las first six albums. The idea was to create a full illusion that these videos were unreleased from the archive and being released for the first time. Unfortunately, of course Dave passed away, and everything changed. The last time I saw Dave was at his place to do the motion capture for this video. I took the train out and back, but my train coming out was delayed and so l only had an hour or so to film him. After we were done he asked if I wanted a drink or anything, he clearly wanted to chat. But I always felt like I was intruding there and if I missed my train back the next one wasn't for four hours and I didn't want him to be stuck with me at his crib for hours on end, so l rushed out to make the train, and obviously have regretted that ever since. After he passed the idea of creating photo real versions of the past became horrible to me, I wish I had been more present of the present. So this video became a dialog for me on Al vs The Soul and what those two concepts mean. Instead of Al imitating human art this is a human imitating ai art. The last shot of Dave in the video is the real Dave from that last motion capture session, ultimately all I wanted was to be around real people and not Al facsimiles. The irony of this video is not only is there no true Al involved it was actually done practically frame by frame in the de-aging and compositing, to the animating of the back, done brilliantly by @williamson_pip on Instagram which was done completely analog in the traditional methods from the 80s. People will continue to believe Al made this... but in truth only AOl could. 😉 - Source: andersfromnyc

Luv it!!!
This is cool and all but what you should do is add color to the music videos that are black and white like potholes in my lawn or say no go
The AI/3D is in the uncanny valley territory. Love DE LA but this should have been animated in 2D
Hope this leads actually to AOI 3
This may take some time to get used to for us old heads...
Watching this realizing it’s AI generated nightmare fuel makes me wanna face palm through my damn cranium. Why couldn’t you just upload an officially restored version of the UK flavor video? R.I.P. Dave, I’m glad you didn’t have the misfortune of having to witness this.
