In a Valentine's Day gift to fans, hip-hop pioneers De La Soul will offer its entire catalog for free for 25 hours, starting at 11 a.m. ET Friday.
"It's about allowing our fans who have been looking and trying to get a hold of our music to have access to it," De La Soul member Posdnuos told Rolling Stone. "It's been too long where our fans haven't had access to everything. This is our way of showing them how much we love them." The songs will be available via De La Soul's official website.

Only part of De La Soul's catalog — its 2004 album The Grind Date — is currently available on iTunes and Spotify. The rap trio's 1989 debut, 3 Feet High and Rising, was listed at No. 346 on Rolling Stone's Top 500 Greatest Albums of all Time. However, uncleared samples on the album have prevented it from appearing on many digital formats.
De La Soul's giveaway comes as the band prepares to release You're Welcome, the group's first album in a decade.
