[BinaryStarofShaolin]

If YouTube ever goes down then songs like this will never still live on the internet. Think about it....on every hip hop forum people post dope songs straight from YouTube...Where will they post them from? Huh? The spread of music will all but stop. Because this sh*t is too good for the radio, the spread of music will stop.

[ParadigmShiftSoul]

I remember growing up I used to receive "hand me down tapes" from my older cousin. I didn't know anything about Hip-Hop music or Tribe called Quest. That music introduced me to intellectual lyrics and well thought out music.

[ToineBkillNshit]

@snuggles1011 he's clearly saying please settle down..

[ToineBkillNshit]

He's saying relax yourself girl please settle down..

[snuggles1011]

@ToineBkillNshit

"Relax yourself girl, is that clear"

[btkkilla1]

If you love real hip hop like this then you will love this artist from queens ny..on the come up..needs heavy support from you guys..please give this artist a chance like you gave A Tribe Called Quest a chance for their music to be heard..just search lou i made a choice Lou i made a choice Lou i made a choice Lou i made a choice Lou i made a choice Lou i made a choice Lou i made a choice Lou i made a choice Lou i made a choice Lou i made a choice Lou i made a choice

[HONEYCOATED]

[olskoolrich]

I saw Tribe live back in 1990...right before Low End Theory came out...CHANGED MY LIFE!

[maxpoweratl]

[ListlessAgent]

Damn I miss this music. Haven't listened to radio in over 3 years because the majority is just trife and I'm only 28. smh

[baliw33]

[ltcharge2185]

A Tribe Called Quest still has a 1 record deal on their original contract from 20 years ago. Please, make a new album. I and many of your fans will buy it because it'll be the only thing in years worth buying with todays current drivel being classified as music.

[arghydoodles]

Sounds incredible with ear/headphones.

[DCstanden]

Any one know how they get that crackling sound in the background or if there is some kind of name for that effect?

[Ruudybeats801]

@DCstanden static 

[arghydoodles]

[IaMnAsianFascination]

@arghydoodles

[RicRenR101]

[mdurise]

People you must check this Doc of Tribe (Beats Rhymes & Life: The Travels of a Tribe Called Quest)

[mdurise]

Phife you are the MAN, i like the way you rhyme

[NicooDoe]

I always thought Q Tip produced this, but recently I read it was Dilla. Anyone know what's up with this? Dilla did a bit of ghost producing so it's possible.

[franciscomendonca8]

just glad that even though the world (and music as well) are going to hell, still a lot of people enjoy good music. peace

[BluntSmokerr]

Classic, glad to see more cats are viewing some real hiphop , 5mill views! (although it should be doubled that)

[stonehenge55]

[bebomac5]

I miss old school hip hop.

[IaMnAsianFascination]

5 MILLION VIEWS!!!!

[Nonchalant1994]

This song is fucking amazing; flawless. In my opinion, Jazz Rap is the most beautiful genre of music, and I see myself to be a pretty open-minded person.

[sevve30slak]

@Nonchalant1994 agree!

[Nonchalant1994]

@sevve30slak :)

[Megatrousers]

I am tripping on acid right now and this seriously the greatest song I have ever heard in my life.

[ledzeppelin6396]

@Megatrousers your keyboard is actually a lion, so watch out.

[CuDiBiScUiT]

@Megatrousers lmfao, you must be a typing god

[Megatrousers]

@CuDiBiScUiT

It took me about 10 minutes to write, don't worry.

[sixpiece]

@Megatrousers fuck yeah nigga

[kylekvem]

[Popper211]

[ChannelOfFides]

Q-tip has such a relaxing voice!

[xxggkingxx]

Wayne bros

[zombieperson1]

My local hip-hop/rap radio station has a throwback mix at noon every weekday. They play Wu-Tang Clan, A Tribe Called Quest, Nas, 2pac, Notorious B.I.G., and many others. That's about the only time I look forward to listening to it....

[tonyzackery]

Doesn't get much better than this where hip hop is concerned.

[srprasad]

so relaxing...i like this song..

[pakusboss]

Marco Polo used this beat with J Davey

[kaleciakrulez]

ATCQ -BEST AMBIENT HIP HOP SQUAD EVER.!!!!!!!Q TIP- ONE OF THE BEST MC'S EVER..1.RAKIM 2.NAS 3.Q TIP 4.BIGGIE

[sailorchibimoon1665]

This can never be compared with k pop

[IaMnAsianFascination]

@sailorchibimoon1665 what? haha

[IaMnAsianFascination]

@sailorchibimoon1665 why would anyone even comapre that, that liek comparing tomatoes and bananas

[blackbull1970]

What makes this jam here a classic, is that it is hardcore and sexually explicit song without using hardcore profanity.

You can play this joint in front of your momma and grandmother, and the metaphors will go right over there head.

[XP3GX]

@blackbull1970 haha the best i have heard is MF DOOM-kookies

[mandybob100]

Like if the The Wayans Bros brought you here:D

[Coltrane5000]

ignorance is bliss nowadays, the youts know nothing say native tongues they have no clue....you say T.R.O.Y they think sparta lol not even Greek.... Hip Hop now is generally dripping with WACK JUICE

[Toogoodfortv111]

90's!!!!!!!!!!!!

[melindaleeadams]

ill bump this to the day i die



[MuziqSoul114]

No lie, I feel like old school videos tell more of a story.

[450mad576]

My friends listen to all 90s music nd my black friends listen to new mainstream bullshit

[Obicity619]

i be chillen to this song on a rainy day

[boxofjosh]

Just in case some of you don't know, check out Beats, Rhymes & Life: The Travels of A Tribe Called Quest. It's a new documentary about Tribe.  It's worth checking out.

[ke467]

i used to have a mad crush on q-tip. i've seen him in concert before. at the peoples expo in the dmv. he performed well. a tribe called quest is one of my favorites. i wish they never broke up.

[olskoolrich]

I first saw A Tribe Called Quest live in October of 1990 at Lincoln University...Low End Theory was just about to drop...changed my life!!! I am ol' skool!

[simon147snooker]

Just heard A tribe called quest by accident as a related vid on youtube, now I have all their albums blasting my white pale ears out. This is the shit! Im in love

[realmendontdance100]

why does every american assume hip hop is dead its not canadian hip hop saved it dont believe me america check out ghettosocks muneshine classified shad d-sissive ghetto concept rascalz mathematik etc

[larryknwles]

Classic song. Im 23 and I would like to say that hip-hop isn't dead, it just went underground. You have to dig for it. 90's til infinity.

[95ctuck]

When hip hop had content and didn't rely on pointless hooks. One of the greatest groups of all time.

[dertyjerz3]

fresh

[MexicanoINC]

I blasted these guys in class. You know, I was just being courteous by introducing the class to some real hip hop music. The most negative reaction I was expecting to get was "Could you turn it down a little?" But instead some kids just screamed "How can you like that? That's horrible!" and just went to my computer and changed it to Pitbull. That's one reason why I never hung out with the kids I went to school with.

[Laurie608]

@MexicanoINC ah man I can relate... my best friend loves Lil Wayne and Drake but I'm afraid to post this good stuff to her wall and have her say she doesn't like it.. I might not look at her the same lmao

[pepeycholo]

@MexicanoINC right on cacheton

[IaMnAsianFascination]

@MexicanoINC

same here, the only people who listen to old school at my school is me, an Asian, and my white friend... haha

[kambridge967]

@MexicanoINC damn thats fucked up that somebody screamed "How can you like that. just shows to go that they dont know what good music is.

[MexicanoINC]

@kambridge967 Or it could it mean that I'm too different from the rest of my generation. Maybe kids just like what's new because it's marketed exclusively to them. There have been a few really sad eras in music (like fucking Disco and the Hair Metal) but to that generation it was classic music because it was meant for them. Maybe I'm just so different from other people my age that I can't like what they like. Maybe I could be the one who could be in charge of the next revolution.

[ShockerIAN]

@MexicanoINC

Truth! i really dislike where hiphop/rap has gone... it isn't dead, it is only lost in translation at this day in age.

[MexicanoINC]

@ShockerIAN I say Hip Hop is on life support right now and a greedy corporate has his eye on the plug. This ain't a Terri Schiavo case where it's something that has just dragged its miserable life for so long that it's not worth saving like disco or hair metal, but we do need an artist to not just be the cure but the magic immortality serum to keep Hip Hop from being a long gone novelty and something that our great grand-babies can enjoy.

[Dontgetmetwisted]

@MexicanoINC were you in a white area? sometimes white folks dont get it

[MexicanoINC]

@Dontgetmetwisted The classroom was 100% Mexican.

[IaMnAsianFascination]

@Dontgetmetwisted the only people who listen to oll school in my school is me an Asian, and my white friend, haha

[villain592]

@IaMnAsianFascination i live in a part of the world were the kids thing tht lil wayne INVENTED HIP HOP an drake wayne n niki are som sort of lyrical masterminds lmao

[IaMnAsianFascination]

@villain592 i go to a catholic school.that should some it up for you, haha

[YoUnGSpaCeLY92]

@MexicanoINC Lmaoo...what a bunch of fags

[MexicanoINC]

@YoUnGSpaCeLY92 Uh, they were not fags. You it's idiots like you that keep many talented gay people and bystanders away from hip hop? The rest of the mainstream music world has seemed to progress past homophobia and racism but hip hop seems to stay backwards. We need to get rid of the 'fag' use and fucking get rid of Lil Wayne, that punk who perpetuates Ghetto Black Man stereotypes to white people. C'mon, we now have an openly bi rapper, Niki Minaj, so stop with the 'fag.'

[YoUnGSpaCeLY92]

@MexicanoINC Lol...Fag

[Jpapi96]

@MexicanoINC seriously, bruh? nobody gives a shit if they're gay. if you've got flow, lyrical creativity and some sick beats nobody will give a fuck. It's people like you that shove the gay shit down our throat.

[BJ9858]

@MexicanoINC Yeah man but ur not alone, same shit always happens to me... fucking ridiculous talking about pitbull and all that mainstream being better then the real hip hop. just makes me sad
