Del The Funky Homosapien
This West Coast hip-hopper hit stardom in 2001, but he wasn’t born for the limelight. His reputation as hip-hop’s oddball stems from his raps about science fiction, “Dungeons and Dragons,” and public transit. Del explains to Kurt how his path diverged from that of his cousin, gangsta pioneer Ice Cube.
