Posdnuos explains ‘Plug Tunin' cadence
De La Soul member Posdnuos describes how his cadence on “Plug Tunin” popped up on his brain after he got injured on his head. “The cadence of ‘Plug Tunin',' it came from me just sitting in my room one day. I had sat down by my bed and hit my head,” he said during the Art Of Intelligence show on Apple Music 1.
“Dead up. I hit my head and I was like [to the beat], ‘Ow ow ow ow.' Bing! Dead up. I made the cadence from me just being hurt. And you know we don't have no tape recorder. I just grabbed the pen and [wrote it down].”
He added, “The first words of ‘Plug Tunin” is me just using the words to hold up the cadence that I did. [raps] Those first two lines were just me trying to make sure I remembered the cadence.”
