Artist: tribe called quest

Being someone whose damn near entire teenage life happened in the 902s, coming across a project in the inbox with a central concept focused solely on paying tribute to some of the hip hop sounds of the decade will of course earn the quickest of clicks. On his newly released mixtape For The Hip-Hop Junkie , Bronx emcee Kev Paris does more than simply deliver a pleasant nine-track ride on the Wayback Express though: the familiar beats of yesteryear-rap used are just listener-nabbing bait for Paris' fine mic work, a [...]

There's been a list floating around online the last week, which is actually just a resurfaced list from 7 years ago, of artists banned from being aired on BET. So the story goes, it's a ban from NEW content by the artists on the list. So you might still see 'Award Tour'(I wouldn't know, I'm Canadian and don't have cable) but, you won't be seeing any new videos form anyone on this list. Beyond the nostalgia of there being a good chunk of the artists I grew up with being on this list, this is a bummer. Check [...]

Cid Rim, signed to the label Lucky Me, is one of those magic electronica artists, who can serve up driving tracks with disorganised structure. Here he takes on ATCQ's Electric Relaxation, and once Fife's verse comes in I dare you not to be blow away. Amazing remix, and someone with talent enough to keep a very close eye on. There is an EP due out soon, I believe. Continue Reading

Very dope gem, found by the brothers at BamaLoveSou l. J Dilla & Phife...win win chemistry. Aw naw! As I was compiling gems for my A Tribe Called Quest tribute set tonight, I uncovered this 1999 Phife Dawg release. This jazzy Jay Dee produced gem appeared on a German release and was the B Side to Bend Ova, also produced by Jay Dee. Somehow, for whatever reason, this track didn't make it onto his album and now it's hard to find. Enjoy! - BamaLovesSoul [...]

A Tribe Called Quest - Can I Kick It Last night I went to the local art house theater and checked out the documentary; Beats Rhymes & Life: The Travels of a Tribe Called Quest. I found it a pretty good watch and look into the super influential group. All their ups, down’s and what lies the in-between. Check it out if you dig Tribe, or if you dig music documentaries in general. Peace http://www.sonyclassics.com/be atsrhymesandlife/ http://atribecalledquest.com/h tml/

Uncovered this gem in a Rolling Rock-inspired YouTube spelunking session. The two legendary hip hop crews have a little fun together in Brooklyn in 1995. Phife is particularly nasty here and while my man Q doesn't get any action, it's still a great document of the peak years of great hip hop.

Our homie DJ Platurn sent through his Best of A Tribe Called Quest Vol. 1 mix that's now being offered up as a free download exclusively from Mixcrate. The mix is being released as the DVD release of the documentary Beats, Rhymes & Life: The Travels of A Tribe Called Quest is coming up. This [...]

La Soul Train rend hommage à la tribu emblématique des Native Tongues , figures de proue du courant rap soul jazz des golden years des 80’s aux 90’s, dont la philosophie prône le retour aux sources du jazz, et emprunte les paroles à la contre-culture afro-américaine .

There are a select few who have seen A Tribe Called Quest's Beats Rhymes & Life documentary by way of film festivals and limited screenings, but now it is finally available on Blu-Ray and DVD . We spoke a bit about the legacy that this legendary hip-hop group has created last week , something that resonates throughout music to this day. The Michael Rapaport film has stirred a ton of emotion both within the group and their fan base - the mark of a project worth checking out. Along with the announcement of the official release [...]

There are plenty of takes on A Tribe Called Quest’s nostalgic salience—some of which sound more like PhD dissertations than actual music commentary. However, Tribe’s impact isn’t that complicated to [...]
