3rd Eye Vision

After Del the Funky Homosapien, Casual, and Souls of Mischief were all dropped from their respective labels, they came together to release material on their own Hieroglyphics Imperium label. 3rd Eye Vision was the collective’s first album and was released on March 24, 1998. The album’s main single “You Never Knew” featured Del and Souls of Mischief while other singles from the album included “The Who,” “Oakland Blackouts” and the Del solo “At the Helm.” Each member of the Hiero crew has their own solo track and the production was handled by Domino, Jay Biz, DJ Toure, Opio, Phesto, A-Plus, Casual, and Del.

UK magazine Fact rated this album #34 on their list of the 100 Best Indie Hip-Hop Records of All-Time.
