Musical career
Paul began his career as the DJ of the hip-hop band Stetsasonic and came into prominence after producing De La Soul’s debut album 3 Feet High and Rising in 1988, which revolutionized various techniques to hip hop production including the art of sampling, mixing, and the addition of comedy sketches to albums.
