Product Description

Future Development is Del the Funky Homosapiens third album and, following his departure from major label Elektra, his first solo fulllength for his independent label, Hieroglyphics Imperium Recordings. Originally released on cassette in 1997, and later reissued on CD and vinyl in 2002, the album largely relied on inhouse production from Del along with contributions from Hiero crew members APlus, Opio, and Toure. The only guest feature on the album is from crew member Casual, who joins Del on the energetic Checking Out The Rivalry.Sonically, Future Development bridges the funkheavy stylings of Dels debut with the darker, more futuristic textures he explored on No Need for Alarm. Lyrically, Del refines his rapidfire wordplay with sharper thematic focus, tackling life in Oakland, societal observations and hiphop culture, all with a blend of humor, streetwise insight, and multisyllabic dexterity. Ultimately, the album captures a snapshot of his progression from raw talent to a more conceptually matured songwriter. It remains a significant and underappreciated chapter in Dels evolution, showcasing early seeds of the creativity and independence that would come to define much of his career thereafter.
