About Vincent Mason
Vincent Mason is best known as one-third of De La Soul, the Long Island hip-hop collective that fundamentally reshaped the genre in the late 1980s and beyond. As producer and member, Mason helped craft the Afrocentric, jazz-inflected sound that made De La Soul's early albums — particularly 3 Feet High and Rising — sound nothing like the prevailing hip-hop of their era. His production work was intricate without being showy, sample-based but with a lightness that pushed against the darker, heavier aesthetic dominating the late 80s. Beyond De La Soul, Mason has pursued solo work and collaborative projects, maintaining that same restless approach to production and sound design. He's spent decades proving that conscious lyricism and sample-based production could coexist with genuine weirdness and playfulness.
Mason brings meticulous attention to detail onstage. Crowds come for the classics but stay locked in through the production choices — the way samples breathe, where the beat shifts. His sets feel deliberate, almost clinical in their precision, which somehow makes the moments hit harder.
Known for Tussle, Brick, Reprise, Goldie, Hey Live
