The New Q-Tip Makes Me Miss The Old Tribe Called Quest
The new Q-Tip single, “Gettin’ Up,” sounds more like the classic Q-Tip that was missing during the brief “Vivrant Thing” era, and it’s hard to complain about the Madlib beat, but something seems missing. I can only assume it’s the artistic hole left by Phife Dawg–if there’s not a five-foot-tall guy roaming around next to Tip, and occasionally dropping a verse, it’s hard to get too excited. A collection of more on point tracks from the A Tribe Called Quest days behind the cut.
“I Left My Wallet In El Segundo”
“Can I Kick It?”
