Q-Tip - Won't Trade

[6663000]

Buck 65 called this one of the "Top Tracks of 2008" on his radio show.

I think he made a great choice.

[chappylegend]

Tip = gold. Bonita, Bonita, Bonita.

[OriginalOrigins]

love tip and tcq but this album was boring...........no beef

[walucky16]

The physical ability with mental capability

Legitimately faces me outside of your vicinity

And I aint really seein me

Vacating this community Im staying in q tip goes off!!!

[ChoiceCuzBro]

bangin.

[MaSoisSoful]

Easily the best hip-hop record of 2008, and one of the best of that year. I thought Immortal Technique's 3rd album was, but this sunshine of a gem came out. Still got love for 3rd World.

[OofyProsser4]

Lyrics about a proffessional sports player. Who else does this. Original and Badaassss. YES TIP, YES.

[Szczotkov]

You can find the same beat in Da Bush Babees -Clear My Throat

[metronome21]

Is this song about D. WADE?

[Sektor14]

man, this is dope

[Dflash20]

better the lil wayne

[BR00T4Lvideos]

Though I completely agree with you there(speaking in an owns perspective sort of way).... there wasn't really any reason to say that. Music is too subjective to compare anyway.

[aureliusproximo]

delltardboy below i would want nothing more than for that to be true but i seriously doubt that...

[Armeniacolombia29]

I heard Phife on making an album, maybe not soon...as for Tribe making another album I highly doubt it too.

[jerbojones]

tribe is supposed to make one more album because they were under contract for one more album. Can't wait one of my favorites of all time!

[Gezus10k]

The Anthology filled that requirement back when.

[ahlvinf]

really? hell yeahh

[NMPopka]

amazing song, the highlight of the album in my opinion

[delltardboy]

tribe is supposed to be making a new cd and phife is coming out with a new solo

[TylerJT123]

DWADE

[foxriver84]

Omg the sample is fantastic !!

Q-tip, mos def, redman are the best

[delltardboy]

i love redman but i gotta say his style has really changed q-tip is staying with his old style this still sounds like tribe i love it

[banksfan02]

Think long term plans, he bringing the fans

[Animaniacs11]

I heard Da Bush Babees use this beat in"Clear My Throat".

[banksfan02]

Q tip's finest

[kosofunk06]

heavy!!!!!!

[kixx6]

itz "i wouldn't trade it for nothin" not i was waiting for nothing" xD

[ScottyCollinson]

What is the female voice sample he has used? IT IS KILLING ME!

[ScottyCollinson]

Never mind, I worked it out. It's "You made a believer (out of me)" by Ruby Andrews

[dwfwwf]

"You Made a Believer Out of Me" by Ruby Andrews

lol

[berettany9]

q tip is dope

[Stickypuddin]

Tune!!

Wait let me listin to it again....

Yep I was right... Fucking Tune!!!

Respect From Brisbane, Australia!

[iLoveHiptop]

YEAHHHH BRISBANE!

im from brisbane toooo :)

[Watttss]

Ive seen a relation on youtube between types of music and the general attitudes of the people who comment on them. On a Q-Tip, Lupe, Wu-Tamg ect video you will find almost all comments actually contribute and relative, most having at least several thumbs up. Whereas on a lil wayne, soulja boy vide the page is lined with red thumbs down while youtubers argue over the most pointless things. I just thought it was intresting.

[Armeniacolombia29]

I guess the people who comment Lil wanye, soulja boy videos are arent as appreciative as the people who comment on Q-Tip, Wu_tang videos.

[Armeniacolombia29]

Aren't*

[sauerbua]

i LOVE it

[TwoDogsX2]

Ahhh, I wouldnt trade 80's and 90's school for the Crunk ass shit of today either!

[ChrisImage78]

I wish this song was longer...the beat is gravy! Is there an instrumental I can get hooked on?

[dazonic]

I wish i could up vote you twice.

[ChrisImage78]

I'm not sure what that means, but thanks for the love!

[jayhova313]

q tip is the shit im glad he didnt stop rapping like he said he was gone do a while ago. this album is amazing. and as good as this album was i think kamaal the abstract was even better. too bad that never got released

[mikdapluma]

[teleologique]

[supreme7g]

[bargeye]

[AKGC12VR]

[ehmazin]

The greatest album in years...

[FlySociety331]

just bumped this album from front to back. this is in the elite rap albums i've heard this year. this shit is great. im 23 and i know real rap. this is it. i wont trade it for nothing

[8AllDaY24]

lol

in the lyrics why is "nigger" typed ? dats racist. shud be "nigga".

Tupac: "Niggers was the ones on the rope, hanging off the thing; niggas is the ones with gold ropes, hanging out at clubs."

[boogielite]

regardless its degrading dude lol

[forzautreg]

hip hop ain't dead

[sdsteez]

it wont die as long as dudes got 2000xl's for sampling

[jeanniechristine]

lol, ringtone rappers! that's hilarious. and they talk hella fast on those commercials too! forblahblahtext1234 forblahblahblahtext 1245

[dskennie]

how is it possible that people can still make music this good?!?! i didn't think it was possible...this album is soo the shitt:)and i am soo thankful cause i was gettin tired of these "ringtone rappers"!!!

[Armeniacolombia29]

Haha, that term, "ringtone rappers" is catching on. I like it as well "ringtone rappers are forgettable" from Dance On Glass

[dskennie]

yep that's where i got it from and imma start calling them that too

[Armeniacolombia29]

Nice, everyone should use that term now, pass it on to everyone u know!!

[dskennie]

yep

[Quake2815]

Soulja Boy is one.

[jabari27]

imma about to really start usin that lol

[inclove1]

or Dave from De La Soul said it differently...Far fetched- like glass teks or kiddie rolex"....

[intrinzik]

I've been putting off listening to this album since I got because i've just picked up so much shit this year. Im glad I finally did because this album fire from front to back. Right up for hip hop album of the year along with Jean Grea / BSBD album. Check that out if you havent aswell

[usir999]

Peace. This shit right here...is straight classic! This that ol' DeLaSoul joint he used! I'm luvn' it!

[dyvinesun]

This is bananas!!!

[littlejesuslambs]

this song is amazing, but i think i still like the older stuff (Tribe) better.

[steveisaacson1]

this is fucking quality. end of.

[jaysonite]

Love it!

[Rico316]

The sample he's using is a track released in 1969 by an R&B artist named Ruby Andrews "You Made A Believer(Out Of Me)" Do a search on YouTube and find it to hear the complete song !!!

[seanfwd]

isnt that sample used on "3 feet high and rising"?

[Armeniacolombia29]

I think so, on the "Brain Washed follower" song/skit.

[m0iraaa]

THA BOMB!!!!!!!!

[AgentDavis]

Looks like the bar has been raised...reminds me of 1991 all over again.

[Armeniacolombia29]

Haha thats when I was born, 1991.

[Ltron9]

Who was that talking at the end?..It sounded like Dwayne Wade...

[Armeniacolombia29]

Idk, coulda been any athlete from the sports world

[moonlightsonic1989]

it is Dwayne Wade

[Armeniacolombia29]

Really? Damm, u must have some super hearing abilities or just a big Dwayne Wade fan, lol. I like he too but im a Knicks fan, embarrassingly.

[darwinator12932112]
