I did, it was a spectacular era to have experience the Hip Hop game,especially the video segments we were watching back then Like Ralph Mc Daniel's Video Music Box that use to come on every afternoon at 3pm through the week Monday-Friday and on saturday afternoon as well....Reppin Bk To The Fullest......i'M out ....Audi 5000.............se ya......
This is one of the most creative songs I heard in years. Man labels need to push this. Not those who make crossover sonngs but, its about $ with labels not real music!!! L.G.N.M
one of the most unique, identifiable voices in hip hop....Tip never settles for the common bull-ish.....the brova's voice conveys so much, without yellin, or repeated hooks......he's always been that suave intellectual type dude...
This guy is amazing. He makes such unique and funky beats, unlike a lot of rappers these days. I love the song "Like That" by the black eyed peas feat. Q-Tip! :))
..we can transcend if your committed... Qtip and ATCQ the best on the face of this earth!! you guys are true hop now and forever!! I cant stop listening to this!!! hold your glasses up for ATCQ...HOlla!!!!!
Yes indeed i know that is the truth, they both created tracks. As i said before i was skeptical on how the new album would sound with out J.dilla helping out. The did all the beats together on amplified, with the exception of about two, yes i agree
the album cover is great. it's like he's saying ''it's not about ME. it's about the music.'' how cool is that to forgo placing your face on the cover to make a point?
Qtip didn't preach tha studio gangsta rhetoric...he had a few beefs (one with wu tang) & a little stage beef with Tupac in Minnesotta. He just made gems for the ladies n ballers too
whadup nem? well on one of his songs on the album, can't really point a finger on the song, his man busta had a small beef with one wu-tang & qtip called the wu-tang - pu-tang. my man a can't really pick the song outta of a line up. But he beef was not too much of a big deal. No rapper; no matter how clean cut, cannot avoid the inevitable- squaring off with a beef with another rapper. Some rappers cross other rappers to boost, record sales- some plain old jealousy. Peace bro.
beef with the Wu? When? Who with? Nah, he was down with the Clan, man... Look Heaven & Hell video by Raekwon at 0:33: Midnight Marauders cover at Rae's bedroom
i was really skeptical on how Tip would hold his own on the production side, with out dilla, for those of you who did not know, dilla created ever beat for amplified, so with out dilla i thought he could not top that, to my suprise tip did his thing and he is quite nifty with the beat making as well, the album is a masterpiece, and i am sorry for any mispellings, i had a bit to drink tonight, please forgive
no he didnt!....they shared production duties...one did vivrant thing...the other did breathe and stop...that went on throughout the album!....and q tip produced most of that shit for a tribe called quest...he produced for craig mack, nas, mobb deep, fu shnickens, crooklyn dodgers....
Actually JDilla from S.L.U.M village produce breath and stop and Vivrant thing. It was JDilla who produced most of Tribe called Quest stuff. That came out of Q-Tips own mouth in a interview.
thats a goddamn lie...u tellin me j dilla produced most of midnight marauders, low end theory and people instintive?...gtfoh....he mightve produced most of the last 2...he prolly did...but i know that j dilla and q tip shared production duties on q tips lp...j dilla said that...and so did q tip
Sliminal74 that is 100% not true. Tip produced nearly every song on the first 3 Tribe albums. Large Professor did one song. I doubt very serious that came out of Tips mouth because Ive heard plenty interviews that says different. They didnt even know Dilla before their first 3 albums
the idiots who think hip hop is lil wayne and soulja boy ect.. might not ever be able to comprehend with the real stuff. This is to smart for ignorant minded rebels....
Thx man!! I like to think I have amazing taste too.. But for real.. if I were 16 again.. him and Jazzy would sooooooo get a call from my people.. Love them to death!!
q-tip is the artist im looking up to. i LOVE ish like this, he inspires me to do music like i do. i sing and i rap! this album is HOT!!!!! keneyi exzavier
I heard this song yesterday for the first time when we were jammin' with our frisbees and immediately fell in love with it. This is great music!
