It broke away from the usually fun, braggadocio style of rap and moved [...]

ATCQ: The Low End Theory
about 1 year ago

Even if Tribe never recorded a second album, they would still be regarded as Hip Hop royalty. Luckily, the group, which was now a trio, dropped, The Low End Theory. Tribe perfected the sound they were looking for on their second album. The beats are minimal but effective and Q-Tip and Phife really hit their [...]

Tribute or Tragedy?: “Buggin Out ’09”
8 months ago

Updated from A Tribe Called Quest's 1991 classic The Low End Theory, "Buggin' Out" gets a (hyphy) color-scheme and bigger, buggier-eyed verses from Consequence and Kid Cudi, both on GOOD Music, better known as Kanye's label.

"Sterfish posted this track":http://mog.com/Sterfish/blog_post/98604 just a short time ago but I'm bringing it up again to ask y'all what the sample is in the song. Now in looking through the album liners, I see many samples credited, but not this one, even though it provides the bed for almost all the choruses (It's a guitar(maybe keyboard?)figure,starting about 15 seconds in)If you are a musi...
