I'm 33... ATCQ was my soundtrack to my youth. I still explore music like he suggest. I found Kool G Rap 10 yrs ago and was blown away. New school has some talent too... Blu, Curren$y, wiz, fashawn, e Rojas and more.
I did check out the history!!! woooow you need to do that everybody. I just dug into Tribe this year and im in love and it does make me love common and kanye even more!! TRIBE!!! Do research people
he is very intellegent. thats the difference between quality hip hop and commercial hip hop (that only appeals to those with no intellegence who just like a good beat). he talks about real life and experiences and roots instead of just slangin drugs n hittin bitches n shooting ppl
atcq forever yo.......one of the main reasons why i fell in love with hip hop back in the day and im 22 right now bumpin midnight marauders...in my beat up ride...
Q-Tip knows what he is talking about when he says that Kanye was influenced by the tribe. Hell Kanye would probably tell you the exact same thing. Kanye even did a show for VH-I where he mentions vibing out to Electric Relaxation.
@pelam1234 ahahhah no shut the fuck up, your just another person who cant respect the newer generation of artists like kanye just because there popular you can see the influence in his first two albums
Q tip has the best voice in hip hop

@McShanful Common has been out since '92, and Kanye, well, I really don't know much about him.

If you play Common now for Common Sense in ‘92 - The Bitch in Yoo woulda been The Bitch in Yoo Part 2 - PackFM

@sp4zzj4zz There's really not a reason to say "fuck kanye and common" in my opinion, but that's how you see it.

Yeah,and if you like Quest & De La then you need to peep their most obvious influence--the patriarchs of the Native Tongues--The Jungle Brothers.
Tip is absolutely right.The the cliche says,'There's nothing new under the sun.'
