Rap Group I Miss: A Tribe Called Quest

Long split apart old school rap crew, "A Tribe Called Quest," chilled out our rough world in the 90s with joints like "Bonita Applebaum," "Electric Relaxation," and "I Left My Wallet in El Segundo." They always rapped over a smooth, jazzy beat and we forget all about hardcore rap and grooved to smooth lyrics of Q-Tip, Phife Dawg, (Jarobi White), and Ali Shaheed Muhammed. They knew how to keep us bobbin' our heads to the dope beats. They mastered the union of jazz and hip-hop and kept the classic sounds in the midst of their new fusion. If you've never heard of them its not too late to join the movement!



Reminisce with me below.
