De La Soul have released a new song, Bigger.

The laid-back track features guest vocals from R&B and soul singer-songwriter Choklate and finds the influential group moving away from the hallmarks associated with the golden age of hip hop and exploring a wider, more R&B-influenced sound.

It's one of two new unheard recordings that feature on the upcoming 20th anniversary reissue of De La Soul's seventh album, 'The Grind Date', due out on March 21.

The record was originally released in 2004 and features collaborations with the late MF DOOM, Ghostface Killah, Carl Thomas and Common. It'll be reissued by BMG on special vinyl and CD with bonus tracks and instrumental versions of select songs.

De La Soul also recently announced that their 1994 'Clear Lake Auditorium' EP will be released digitally and on a limited edition CD and vinyl on March 7. Head here for details on that.

Additionally, a record featuring several remixes of their '3 Feet High and Rising' track Say No Go is due out on February 6. They dropped their latest album, 'and the Anonymous Nobody...', in 2016. 

De La Soul will play shows in Miami and Switzerland in February. Head here for tickets.
