The Infamous Date Rape-Dope song that deals with the situation when the real-love dating goes wrong. However, the reason I'm not giving 5 stars is because the print on the outer sleeve is very low quality.

Midnight Marauders is more than just a collection of songs; it's an exploration of the group's artistic prowess and their ability to communicate relevant messages through their music. Tribes second album "The Low End Theory" was released in 1991, and still to this day is better than all the booty crap released within the past fifteen years or so. The album holds immense cultural and emotional importance as it marks the group's first release following the passing of their founding member, Malik "Phife Dawg" Taylor, who died in March 2016 due to complications from diabetes.Excursions-Q-Tip explains hip hop reminds him and his dad of jazz music because jazz music introduces the world to hip hop along with funk and James Brown. A 1991 landscape-changing release from the pioneering hip-hop group, The Low End Theory embraced a minimalist approach and set the tables for the alternate rap movement that followed.

Tip and Dawg rap about truth of self, and uplifting the nation full of ignorance and racial inequalities, and how to treat woman in a misogynist society. Excursions" contains samples from "Time Is Running Out" performed by The Last Poets and written by Omar Ben Hassen. The Low End Theory is celebrated as the closest and most brilliant fusions of jazz atmosphere and hip hop attitude ever recorded.Released in 1998, the album serves as the group's final studio effort before they temporarily disbanded. Second studio album from the trio of Q-Tip, Phife Dawg, and Ali Shaheed Muhammad originally released in 1991 is considered one of the best hip-hop albums of all time. I have the VMP reissue of Panda Bear's Person Pitch and that is a HSM for sure (cut by Miles at Abbey Road). Review: We're big fans of these educational 7"s that often crop up, with a legendary hip hop jam on one side and the source of some its samples appearing on the flip. de la Soul are remembered as the premier Native Tongues posse, those rappers who got low-key, self-consciously thoughtful, and jazzy in the face of gangsta's hardcore threats.
