On the Tip

Q-tip has returned, but I have a confession: I'm only just discovering his solo work and his old band A Tribe Called Quest, both at the same time. I'm not a devotee yet, but I adore his flow and I'm always up for rhymes this thoughtful. This is from his new record The Renaissance. Can I just say that it's so good to hear D'Angelo's voice again:

Q-Tip - "Believe (feat. D'Angelo)"









This is what piqued my interest in Tip, a track from Tribe's The Low End Theory. When I heard this I finally understood what Tribe's legendary status was all about. This is easily one of the best tracks I discovered all year.

A Tribe Called Quest - "Vibes and Stuff"
