a tribe called quest - Award Tour

[firetko14]

Just a good music from a great group that had great lyrics

[amgarrison85]

It doesn't matter what brought them here. All that matters is that they discovered Tribe. 20 years ago, or today, still the best.

[Jadensmithfan10]

this beat go hard!!!

[achemze]

Thrasher skate or die brought me here .... like over a decade ago, for the second time.

[BeatsBySwagg]

If Madden 12 brought you here, you are a child who clearly doesn't know anything about music.

Check out my tribe beats! And remixes if you get a chance

[CHIsk8erALVA]

If Madden 12 brought you here, you're 20 years too late!!!

[TheWaxMinister]

@CHIsk8erALVA Too late for what? I don't play Madden, but does it really matter how you discovered a song or an artist/group? I was too young to discover this when it was released, are you old hip hop fans claiming ownership on the good old hits now? How the hell are the young kids supposed to listen to the good old if you hate us for discovering it now. You're not "real" just because you lived during the release.

[JohnIsawesome25]

Like if you came here because of Madden 12.

[VSizzle10]

"Im on a world tour, with common my man

after every show a couple dikes in the van"

Kanye! :)

[TheButterscotch76]

concert at the Roxy in Phoenix, AZ

[estadje]

i want to go back.

[kenneth1234567889]

anyone know any songs like this that are in the 90s...i really enjoy beats like this

[MegaKryp2nite]

This was on MLB 2008, MADDEN 12, & NBA 2K8

[hardtruthsin08]

"The wackest crews try to dis, it makes me laugh....when my track record's longer than a DC-20 aircraft."

Top that. You can't. True Hip Hop.

[CanadianBornPureDesi]

I used to like the wale version but the original is 10x better

[BreatheCreativity]

Just listening. Too good.

[mountainhigh88]

Def of self...

[bigkev9539]

If you watch the video closely, Trugoy the Dove has an eyepatch on.

[bigkev9539]

My mistake, it's black tape.

[IPlayToMuchMinecraft]

hahah 69 dislikers



[kaleciakrulez]

BEST TRIO EVER!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!1

[hardtruthsin08]

@kaleciakrulez - it wasn't a trio, really. Jairobi was still always around, even when he wasn't an active member. ATCQ: Jairobi, Phife, Tip, and Ali.

[kaleciakrulez]

@hardtruthsin08 yes i know jairobi was like a ghost

[gcalz123]

thumbs up if madden 12 brought u here hahaha

[metallicjohn]

@gcalz123 knew this song way before madden

[tkdskyride]

#realmusic

[AngelGold26]

69 ppl don't know what real hip hop/rap is

[bripell62]

illest ever hiphop book came out, with the guys from Tribe telling

you how they made their classic-joints, it has interrviews with

all the golden era, real hiphop MCs, boook's named-

-HOW ::TO:: RAP-

[hopkidokid]

@The420jay420 damn right all i see is madden12 brought me herr thrasher skate and destroy was so fun on ps1

[veteranship502]

if these niggas was n the illuminati these niggas would still b on top...listen to em spit sounding better than niggas n 2012 back then..cnt wait till dis feeling come back

[GoandGetEm]

@DjYungstarTV you are a fucking idiot in my opinion everything these days is not iluminati.. You have to be a teenager believing all that speculation that your friends and the media feed your dumb ass... Iluminati is not real it is media propaganda thats it... Anyway.. Big up to A Tribe Called Quest this is a classic joint right here boi.. I remember this from when i was lil

[DJYungstarTV]

@GoandGetEm I'm not saying I believe in the illuminati, I'm jsut saying that they're are somethings that the media is brainwashing us, I may or may not agree with it but I'm telling you it's messed up. I just don't care about the illuminati because it fears me to see how many of my favorite artists may or may not be involved in it, so I just leave it alone. And watch your mouth for calling me a fucking idiot, fuck boy!

[DJYungstarTV]

@GoandGetEm oh yeah and I like this song.

[hskshag00]

@GoandGetEm The Illuminati IS real, dumbass. It's just not nearly as evil as Dan Brown portrayed it as in Angels & Demons. They're no more harmless than the Masons. At least, that's what we know so far...

[vote4cove]

I thank madden for giving me the name of this song, i was looking for it for the longest

[PrintzofPeepz]

Thumbs up if you saw this video on TV the first time!

[The420jay420]

[svaava]

[Rmarsh451]

[madclownace]

When a song like this gets a million views I call that hip-hop justice.

[IaMnAsianFascination]

@madclownace this deserves a billion

[IaMnAsianFascination]

is that jarobi on the hook? sorry, im only 13

[DJYungstarTV]

These guys are covering there eye... Illuminati!

[DJYungstarTV]

@DJYungstarTV but nice track though. 

[starwarsROXmy]

@DJYungstarTV fuck off

[DJYungstarTV]

@starwarsROXmy is that your best response? "Fuck Off"? I'm just saying that they're covering there eye it's illuminati. Many artists today do that shit. You don't have to agree with me, but that's no excuse for telling me to fuck off. It's 2012 get your shit together!

[starwarsROXmy]

@DJYungstarTV illuminati dont exist so fuck off you nut

[DJYungstarTV]

@starwarsROXmy whatever, don't believe me then.

[starwarsROXmy]

@DJYungstarTV how can you believe in something that is purely created by fucking nutjobs?

[The420jay420]

@DJYungstarTV woww people like you piss me off, why are you so arsed? paranoid guy man

[GoGoSkate18]

[ponginoh]

[KingVirmire]

My great taste in music brought me here...

[JBradley94]

Real fucking rap.

[MJN312]

Y'all don't know how hot this was in 93, grew up with TCQ! Classic

[nightsoldier1112]

I've known about the tribe for a long time, but I never really gave 'em a good listen until a few years ago. They are now easily in my top5 o.a.t.! =D

[JamesSpatula76]

[PresidentChiefer]

@kdt13 Thanks!

[yanismommy]

[Sgtbigmike]

Madden has this song in their game? Maybe I might start purchasing their titles again just because they're putting classics in their games.

[SouljaAli810Flint]

My name is Ali Mohammad Cuba.

[XxFightinDirtyxX]

Thumbs up for Muhammad my man.

[stasialatasha]

PHIFE DOG went nice as usual...His flow is cool, Q-TIP did his part, the main character in the group!

[MTZuniga33]

if only time travel was possible...

[JustinMacekBitch]

"we on a world tour with Mohammed my man"

[Airbourne3569]

Jesus,everyone just calm down.All you people that heard this from Madden NFL 12,thats fine but don't spam the song saying "OH THUMBS UP IF MADDEN BROUGHT YOU HERE".And you people who heard this in the 90's,just be happy that the song is gettin more exposure.Can't we both sides agree that this is an awesome song and just move on with our lives?

[xxdemocraticxx]

This is that shit!

[awesomesaucemcgeezer]

Why does anyone care if someone found it on Madden? If anything that's better because it's exposing them to the song.

[Mr777necho]

This reminds me of Trasher: Skate And Destroy!

[trevor2594]

Susan Boyle ad... cool youtube, you know what I want to see

[HAZExNxDAxHOUSE]

song was and is the truth no matter what game its on or how u heard it

[TheRubronegro85]

67 people were not on tour

[RetardedTulio]

This song is so chill, the flow is just amazing - the essence of hip hop to me.

[Quintin07mt]

[itberuuuubert]

@Quintin07mt No, man, that's Kleenex.

[Quintin07mt]

[firdausone]

Dododatdoodoodattdooodooodatda­tdat...



[firdausone]

A Tribe Called Quest was ahead of their time. Well ahead. I appreciated the music a little later bc I was still young when they surfaced, but love this nonetheless, real hip hop right here.

[TheCWhit1]

The 66 dislikes must listen to Wacka Flocka, Wayne, and Soulja Boy!!

[pimpnasty44]

This beat i crazy

[missgaga402]

Thrasher Skate and Destroy!

Fuck you yuppies, I love video games!

Hip hop changed my life

[Skyy301]

@Zoshiful but if a video game introduces more people to hip-hop, why get mad, spread the love of hip-hop fam

[SouljaAli810Flint]

@Zoshiful This in Madden 12? Damn I ain't bought a football in years.

[thearcticwombats]

thrasher skate and destroy anybody ?? LOL ok just me

[protothom]

@thearcticwombats that's where i heard this beautiful song for the first time, probably like 9 years ago

[laeiru]

Grandmaster just the fact you knew it was on "thrasher" gives you props i always think of that when i hear this song.. But yeah this song is epic

[LloydDanny1978]

a really ill BOOK came out, has Tribe, Brand Nubian, Mobb Deep,

Cypress, Blackalcious, all the dopest, classic hiphop groups dropping

serious gems in it, great-read, called-

::H :O ,W.... :::..T:O

...R :A, P

[GrandmasterSexay05]

This was on Trasher before anything but seriously people are going to start flooding Madden 12 shit on this "HISTORIC" song. Madden used to do only new tracks now the mixed old and new tracks.

90% of the stuff that has been on madden soundtracks over the years i've heard before it was even on there. I knew those dumb comments would come just like on Pantera's song..fuckingn annoying.

[yomamadeathz]

fuck madden this is PS1 Thrasher s&d days

[TheRokunana]

God this is terrible.....

[suyog5]

@TheRokunana -__-

[jakynme]

the're in manhattan right?

[psyker40000]

this is bangin with or without madden

[ccpillow]

what's a madden?

[SheaButters]

Thrasher Sk8 and Destroy



[DJHENRYPAUL1]

;) Classics

[Ezio519]

@jasmen420 God forbid Madden introduce me to a good song.

[dragunovful]

@Ezio519 I'd rather a game introduce you than nothing at all. Welcome to a tribe called quest, 4 gods.

[coltskid654]

who cares if this song is mainstream? If anything its good that it was put in madden 12 bc now the song will be remembered. It shouldn't be about who heard it first but about the music.

[dragunovful]

@coltskid654 Remembered? Trust me, this will be remembered along with bagh and beethoveen

[skatedeathwish69]

@jasmen420 hipster

[OlDirtyTheBastard]

What has happened to hip hop now a days?!

[ImGoneRobU]

Message to all hipsters: We don't care if you heard it before Madden 12.

[Shamoles]

why is he covering his eye?

[MyJunior1975]

R.I.P. Jive Records 1981-2011. Thanks for the memories and the classic hip hop records throughout the years.

[rikka1287]

@MyJunior1975 its sad aint it....

[MyJunior1975]

@rikka1287 It's especially sad because Sony also folded Arista and J Records. But the thing is here is that Jive was still the most successful out of the three in the last few years. They had records by Britney Spears, Raheem DeVaughn and Anthony Hamilton that were pretty successful- even Miguel's album (the last to be released before its folding) was doing pretty good.

Sony Music folded those three labels to pay more attention to RCA Records- was that really necessary?

[homer422]

@MyJunior1975 I know you posted this 2 months, but I just wanted to point out that Jive Records were home to The Backstreet Boys, N Sync, Britney Spears, Aaron Carter, Three Days Grace, Chris Brown, Bullet for My Valentine, Usher (late), David Archuleta, T-Pain...but all that aside none of these acts are going to have the lasting cultural relevancy of ATCQ...

[MyJunior1975]

@homer422 Or Boogie Down Productions, UGK, and the Hieroglyphics, either!!!

[SportsNewsNow]

SOOO MANY HIPSTERS

[SportsNewsNow]

@jasmen420 HIPSTER!

[QPCornelius]

If madden 12 brought you here; You're a Brainwashed Rabbit...

[NH3R717]

I heard of "madden 12" because of this.......

[2tame4fame]

@NH3R717 what is madden 12? for some of us the movie Boiler Room brought this song...

[rikka1287]

@2tame4fame it is a game....which half of these ppl wouldn't know this song because they were to young when it came out or just being born. I honestly did not know this song was on Madden 12...i came here cuz i love a tribe called quest....maybe because i remember when this song was on the radio.

[RetardedTulio]

@NH3R717 We should go spam some Madden 12 videos with "Thumps up if A tribe called Quest brought you here" ..

[HamSandwich09]

I heard this song for the first time today, on YouTube. Does that make me less "cool" or less of a fan? Fuck that. It's a good song. If you heard it back in the day, good for you. If you heard it yesterday on a video game, awesome too.

Enjoy the damn song.

[darthelvis26]

who gives a shit where you heard it....before or after madden, who gives a shit...enjoy the song.

[BrokeHabitsTV]

@jasmen420 this was in madden 12?

...sick! more exposure to real hip hop. !

and let the real teachers of the game teach.

think positive brotha.

[mannyfestoINS]

Thumbs up if the first time it played on madden u spit every lyric

[rikka1287]

@jasmen420 I dont get how are u a hipster because you was there to experience the song...i def remember this song....and madden didnt have to put it on the map!! If you a real 80's baby....then u def know A Tribe Called Quest....they just hatin cuz im on here groovin...i havent heard this in YEARS!!!

[gonzotime7224]

all you hipster fags that think you're cool because you knew this song before it was on a video game need to go get some real hobbies. and take that scarf off you look ridiculous!

[rikka1287]

@gonzotime7224 Aww is some jealous they didn't get to experience real music!!

[gonzotime7224]

@rikka1287 I was in school in the 90's, clearly you didn't go.

[rikka1287]

@gonzotime7224 So you didnt have a good come back. I didnt go to school because I dont need a game to know a song that was out when i was young....please tell me you are still in school because u make absolutely no since. Sweetie I was born in the 80's....so unlike u I remember the 90's that does not mean I lack any knowledge because songs like this are apart of my childhood. Again i'm sorry if you weren't there..YOU MISSED OUT IT WAS A LOVELY TIME :) unlike the garbage yall call music today.

[gonzotime7224]

@jasmen420 you're so cool you're from the 90's! 

[adamnlouis]

@importcarfan lol, its funny when people try to correct people and are completely wrong.

that is dave from de la soul.

[Shakehh]

Madden didn't bring me here. But i smiled when i heard it on madden, because now real music can be heard

[lukebray]
