Guys, this Tribe album is really good. It's like they skipped The Love Movement and picked up right after BR&L. There's a song called Kids that is pretty awesome.


Its fucking amazing.

Solid Wall Of Sound is my favorite...i mean, Busta Rhymes, Jack White and Elton?

Yea, I vaped and listened to the first half last night. Fucking stellar, this thing. The production is aces, super creative -- the beats all have a vibe that is both a throwback to the 90s, and a look forward to something more modern. And the lyrics are fantastic. The hook to We the People is a gut punch:

All you Black folks, you must go
All you Mexicans, you must go
And all you poor folks, you must go
Muslims and gays, boy, we hate your ways
So all you bad folks, you must go


Exactly, there is this really familiar ATQC vibe and at the same time, its something new.
I love how they use their guests.

This new ATCQ album might be the album of the year.

Indeed. Too new for me to definitively say whether I like it more than RNDM, but it's entirely possible.

We The People is killing it for me right now. Just downloaded the album so I'll give the whole thing a spin soon.

:thumbsup: I don't think there's a bad song in the bunch. A there are a few in the back half of the record that haven't totally clicked for me yet, but it seems like I connect with another song with each spin.

A Tribe still rules all. This record measures up to their incredibly high standards. RIP Phife.

Consistently surprised at the energy Busta Rhymes brings to this record, too. I had written him off a long time ago -- his music has sucked for a while, and I have a friend who's worked with him extensively and paints sort of a sad picture. But he sounds great on this -- fun, fast, weird.

I've been listening to the new Tribe Called Quest pretty much nonstop for the last two weeks. Just great, great stuff.

There are really no down spots for me, but the one I keep leaning towards as my favorite is "Ego."

I love how it moves back and forth between the two musical sections.
