The group's third studio release, Buhloone Mindstate released on September 21, 1993, saw the group evolve into a new sound as they continued to grow stylistically and musically.There were several moments on the album which proved the band had matured. "I Be Blowin'" was a departure as the track was an instrumental featuring saxophone playing by Maceo Parker. The introspective "I Am I Be" showed de la Soul at their most self-referential to date. "Long Island Wildin'" was a collaboration with Japanese hip hop artists Kan Takagi (Major Force)and trio Scha Dara Parr (SDP). The album's first single, "Breakadawn", used a sampleof Michael Jackson's "I Can't Help It" and Smokey Robinson's "Quiet Storm". de LaSoul collaborated for the first time with Gang Starr's Guru on "Patti Dooke", andfemale MC Shortie No Mas who was prominent on many tracks on the album andshowcased particularly on "In The Woods". The album ended with an old school Biz Markie collaboration called "Stone Age".
