A Tribe Called Quest

how was there no thread for them?

All I really want to say is that Phife Dawg's death has really saddened me. Very upsetting to lose such a great guy/rapper at such a young age.

Musically specifically they blew me away. Low End Theory really influenced the British Hip Hop groups like Massive Attack, Portishead, Tricky etc. Its my favourite thing they did but I also listened to Midnight Mauraders every day for about a year. I like everything they did. Some of the J Dilla produced stuff is awesome too.. So pissed off I never caught them live. Was going to see them a couple of years ago...thought I would wait till they release that rumoured new album to see them. Shit.
The Love Movement never gets enough attention either.
