Understanding Deltron 3030 - The Classic Hip Hop Sci Fi group

While Deltron 3030 may take place a full millenium in the future, the story it has to tell is one tied to the present. By telling the fictional story of a world trapped in oppression, Del hits close to home, and provides a record with pointed social commentary, and a future that may come sooner than expected. Deltron 3030 consisting of Del the Funkee Homosapien, Dan the Automator, and Kid Koala, the album Deltron 3030 takes place in the far future of 3030, where thoughtful rap has been all but outlawed. From this bleak future rises the hero Deltron Zero, and his partner Automator, who use their rhymes and beats to tear down the oppressive system they are trapped within.

This album deserves a movie

[@evergreenrider]

This is one of the greatest rap albums ever made, and will always stay that way. A timeless classic. So many emotions, its a roller coaster. And if you partake in hallucinogens, take a pop and put this album on repeat.

Yup, untouchable and I’m so glad no one has even attempted to redo this shit n if someone did I haven’t heard it cuz it probably didnt come close haha

One of the best hip hop albums of all time easily. So ahead of it's time(literally and figuratively) hip hop hasn't caught up yet!

[@tocide]

Maybe the mainstream but some obscure/underground/middleground project probably have tackled something similar

Incredible album underrated Great ex planations

[@richspizzaparty]

Not underrated at all. Underground classic,

[@ZachKopkaZake]

@@richspizzaparty forgive me but underground is underrated that's why it's underground. But ???? Thanks for saying it's a dope album cause it certainly is

Hip hop and science fiction is a perfect combination because hip hop is so flexible.

[@richspizzaparty]

Incredible lyrics, beats and great concept. The made something really special here.

[@kublakhanican7486]

Fantastic video. I just discovered your channel now and damn are you making some great stuff

[@earlyaquila]

great video

[@markdodson5866]

The greatest hip hop album I’ve ever heard. I’m a rock/metal fan so my opinion isn’t well versed in the genre but still…the best.

[@possessedslig]

Check out The Cold Vein if you liked this 👍

[@rohandogra8249]

Incredible explanation

[@jenniferhardesty9298]

As del being one of my favorite rapper deltron was such a legendary album but in my opinion it hasn't beat Organised Konfusions Stress the extinction edition

[@NoSoyCaca]

Just randomly trying to learn anything new from my favorite rap album and all of the sudden this appears. What an amazing video! Thanks for the hard work! Any plans on making one about Vol. 2?

[@RegalState]

Can put it on the list but we're working on a lottt of episodes yet to come out haha

Man that album was such a disappointment and about 15 years too late. Deltron3030 came out when we were in high school. Been constantly listening to it for over 20 years. Part 2 I've listened to a small handful of times.

[@craig205]

@@evergreenrider I wouldn't say it's a disappointment. a bit underwhelming for the ones waiting yeah, but def not a disappointment

[@alpoe4467]

Why is sci-fi and hip-hop "strange bedfellows"? What about Parliament/Funkadelic?

[@theblan1k0ne]

Honestly, I wonder. How does Event 2 fit into this? Is it the same thing all over again?

[@craig205]

Nope, it's completely different. set 10 years later, then 1000, where everything turns into fuckin wasteland. mad max type way
