Happy Birthday to Trugoy the Dove aka Dave of the fresh De La Soul!!!!
David Jude Jolicoeur (born 21 September 1968, in Brooklyn, New York), also known under the stage name Trugoy the Dove and more recently Dave, is an American rapper, producer, and one third of groundbreaking hip hop trio De La Soul.[1]
Jolicoeur, Vincent Mason and Kelvin Mercer were friends who attended the same high school in the Amityville area of Long Island during the 1980s. After they decided to form a rap group, each member re-christened themselves with an outlandish name (Trugoy the Dove, P.A. Pasemaster Mase and Posdnuos, respectively). Early on, Jolicoeur sported a unique style of African medallions, peace signs and uneven dreadlocks (known as the “De La Do”). Paired with the positive messages of the group’s debut effort, 3 Feet High and Rising, the image led to critics and journalists labelling the members as “the hippies of hip hop” (a title that the group was quick to refute with the release of the second album De La Soul Is Dead in 1991).
Jolicoeur is also a member of the Spitkicker collective.
Aliases
All three members of De La Soul have a variety of known aliases and nicknames used throughout the group’s career. The following are the most significant:
- Trugoy – The word “Trugoy” is backwards for “yogurt“, because he likes yogurt. Jolicoeur once said in a video that, “I enjoyed eating yogurt. I mean, I eat it a lot.”
- Plug Two – An early concept for 3 Feet High and Rising involved music being transmitted from Mars by three microphone plugs (each one representing a member of the group). Though this idea was abandoned, the titles “Plug One”, “Plug Two” and “Plug Three” still became relevant on the album.
