Yo, listen up! My dude got skills for real, but even he gotta use a u t h e n t I c v i e w s to get that quick shine. If you tryna get your Q-Tip out there and blow up fast, you gotta roll with a u t h e n t I c v i e w s. That's the move, no cap.
I slept on Tip and ATCQ as a whole till recently. Don’t know why I’m just waking up. 🤷🏽♀️ I guess it’s because I’m from Down South, so I listened to a lot of Southern artists growing up: Outkast, Goodie Mob, 2LC, 8B &MJG, etc...I never knew Tip was so deep. 🤦🏽♀️
That's good he's giving Outkast a shout out on the song being that they are both A Tribe Called Quest fans. That why I was glad that Andre' 3000 was featured on the last Tribe album released in 2016. Too bad Big Boi didn't appear on the track "Kids" with Andre 3000 so it would be an Outkast feature instead of one member of the group. Nevertheless it was a great collaboration.
Thank you Jay Dilla should you say. He produced most of the album's beats. He was one nasty producer from Detroit. The best to do it in my opinion. LNP
It’s true. I would add that they were both prodigious, borderline virtuoso in their composition. Perhaps they were even the last of the best? Worthy of reverence.
This is why rappers like q tip common talib mos def skee lo pharoe monch are great no swears killing or dissin women in thier rhymes just makes you feel good positivity that s hip hop
Damn Q-Tip had joints on this album. This track was definitely slept on. I had to do a double take on the truck in this video tho. All these years had no clue it's a Lamborghini Jeep. It's the LM002.
Dope Dilla face sticker on my back windshield rollin' around Detroit showing respect like I'm spose to. Dilla will always be amongst Motown's finest! Rest In Beats
Untouchable period in Hip Hop..everybody won no matter if it was GangStarr, A T ribe Called Quest,Wu-Tang, RedMan,Heavy D(RIP) QTIPs sound has been so consistent for soo many years for the people that he's produced (NAS,Keith Murray,Busta Rhymes etc,) plus QTIPs remixes have also been insane.
Albums like "Amplified" "Blackout"- Redman/ Method Man, "Chronic 2001" -Dr. Dre., "Nastradamus" -Nas and many other Hip Hop albums closed out the 90's.
I have always loved this smooth Jam! ❤️ One of the Classic Hip Hop Songs of all time by Q-Tip! 💯 This legendary song was produced by the legendary J. Dilla (February 7, 1974 - February 10, 2006) - Born (James Dewitt Yancey). For those who don't know, J. Dilla was most one of the most influential producers in a generation. Although his life was short, he made an impact in Hip Hop culture! 💯 RIP Dilla! 🔥🙏🏾
This dude right here changed the game and many don't know it. This dude spun many beats, rhymes and yes, life for many artists... and along side Phife, to me, the most explosive duo in hip hop history... smoking a bowl and reminiscing my teenage years.. love this right here....
So Dope, that we must Cope with understanding and guidance from the Almighty and stay on the path, God in heaven deliver Us from evil and keep us always winning with blessings in route. 🛐
love the jazz type guitar riffing everywhere it's completely apart from the rap and the drum and bass and noises and at the sametime it's like the backbone of the tune, damn brilliant makes you think wow that's abstract but nice abstract
Just found out this song was produced by Dilla! Always loved it and that makes sense now. Agree this whole album was way better than it ever got credit for.
Dig the move my man has been doing his thing since '88 and I just wanna give him mad props for blessing the people with his lyricism. RIP Phife Dog much love Tribe and Native tongues
