Will you Go to Heaven when you Die?(Here's a quick test) Have you ever lied, stolen, committed adultery(Jesus said if you even look with lust it's adultery) Will you be guilty on Judgment Day? Be honest. You know you will be guilty and end up in Hell. But God is not willing That Any perish. God loves us so much He sent Jesus Christ to suffer and die on the Cross and He rose from the dead. Today, Repent(Confess and Forsake your Sins) and trust in JESUS Christ then read the Bible and Obey it.
@quidit4ya, You are totally wrong. And for everyone sayin Q-Tip did all the work, you're wrong too...
First off Dilla did nothing on their first three records... In fact I don't even think Tip had met him yet...
Second, the first three albums were a calaboration between Tip and Shaheed. I remember hearing in an interview that their work ethic was "Q-Tip do a track, Ali do a track" so on and so forth. Everything was just credited as "A Tribe Called Quest@
all i can think about is my ps3, me i feel like playin games - infamous the name killin enemies, choosin good or bad changin my legacy, i gotta win like supremecy - you cant kill me i respawn at the nursery, jumpin off buildin tops dropin with bolts of lightnin, wit bad karma people find you frightenin, bad looks choose to leave em electrifying - or cying for the family i could heal - or i could deal for the reapas, but enough i wana paly the game seeya

How is it 17 years later this shit is still better than most shit coming out now? Crazy! Q-Tip did his thing production wise and Phife made it a classic
@nojusticenoweed Nah Q-Tip produced the 1st 3 albums but put 'produced by Tribe Called Quest' so they could all benefit from, he said so himself and so did Phife in various interviews, but nevertheless their music is timeless
@quisit4ya Q-Tip did most of the production on Tribe's 1st two albums but credited it 'produced by Tribe Called Quest' so they could all benefit from it. They all went crate digging and decided what samples would sound good together but Q-Tip laid everything down. He said so himself in an interview a while back. Dilla came on the scene after the Midinight album.
@SparksMentalz Actually, Ali Shaheed Muhammad did most of the production up until beat, rhymes, and life. That's when jay dee came along and Shaheed, Q-Tip, and Dilla formed the Umma and made it a production team.
@youngcnillzof9th if you look on the back of this album it says DJ/Producer is Ali Shaheed Muhammad .. however on other albums, such as People's Instinctive Travels and the Paths of Rhythm, The Love Movement, and Beats, Rhyme, and Life Q-Tip had a major part in producing.
@youngcnillzof9th qtip produced for mobb deep?? damn, all that was good about them was their beats so if they didnt even do that then wow they were really no good.
@KnowledgeAccumulated come on prodigy is a great rapper but tip only did drink away the pain, tempatures rising, and give up the goods, havoc did everything else on their first album.
@SparksMentalz ...How is it 17 years later this shit is still better than most shit coming out now? Good Question.
Simple answer. When music is made from the heart (and it's by talented ppl with vision) it will always outlast the "yo this is what's HOT NOW !!!" music.
That's always going to be the difference between "dated music" and "classic"
@SparksMentalz hip hop needs to be on some dubstep shit and its not cause they all about making money. they stop trying to out do the past. hell if i was a mc i would be trying to rap in 15 different languages on one song. haha and for that reason alone i will be an mc.
@MrCalculus999 Lol, nah man. Dubstep is white noise on wax imo. Augmented sounds made to form unorthodox melodies that would normally be rejected by the human ear.
Ever since Run-D.M.C. 'Walk This Way' came out, everyone wants to mesh hip hop with crap. We need to preserve our culture and keep it intact. Bad enough you have homo new school 'pop-hop' metaphor rappers complaining about the 'haters' and stress with being 'paid'. Let's leave this real shit the way it is.
@SparksMentalz man get out here they take chances this music is safe nobody takes chances any more. you should have niggas trying to out rap nas. nas try to out rap rakim and damn near 15 years later you got clowns and can't even touch the lyric level he was on its sad.
@MrCalculus999 Dudes don't even put thought into their bars or songs a period anymore. Now, dudes tap the same drum pattern, some 808's, a few synths and some high pitched melody.
Some songs even have that same wind up intro, just listen to any Waka Flaka song. This music has more than 1 sample flipped into a classic. Name 1 song on the radio right now from any mainstream rapper out now that will be memorable even 5 years from now. This joint is over 15 years old and still bumping.
