A Tribe Called Quest - People's Instinctive Travels and the Paths of Rhythm


A Tribe Called Quest - People's Instinctive Travels and the Paths of Rhythm

Let me take you back to 1990: bands such as N.W.A. and PE rule the hip hop scene. The beats are raw, grimey, hard-hitting and chaotic. Along comes A Tribe Called Quest, with conscious lyrics. Only this is a totally different type of music. We have a large amount of jazz samples on this album. That combined with Q and Phife's flows gives you an instant classic.
