    Tribe sounds smooth to the ear....still

    By Pass  Apr 1, 2000 | 1 out of 1 found this Anthology review helpful

    10 Years ago when everyone at my work was bumpin to De La Soul's "me myself & I" and "Jenifa taught me" ....I picked up a CD with an unpretentious looking cover (but pretentious title) called Peoples Instinctive travels and paths to the rhythm. Song...s like "Bonita Applebum", "Can I Kick It" and "....El segundo" are classics that remain ingrained on my mind to this day. As I matured into adulthood their Jazz groove-based sound (as on Electric Relaxation) grew on me even more. These songs carried many parties and are all included on this Anthology (although out of chronological order). Their sound is still fresh after all these years. Hip Hop today is one convoluted commercial mess.....anyone who appreciates good melody will appreciate this CD like a deep breath of fresh air. Read more Less

Pro Reviews: Anthology

  • All Music Guide

    For those who haven't discovered that A Tribe Called Quest made several of the best LPs in hip-hop history, Anthology is a perfect way to encapsulate the trio's decade-long career into one manageable portion. All of their best and biggest songs are here, from the early neglected joint "Luck of Lucien" to classic jazz-rap from The Low End Theory like "Jazz (We've Got)," and their 45-rpm peak with "Award Tour," all the way to their last big hit, "Find a Way," from 1998's The Love Movement. Yes, anyone who enjoys hip-hop needs to own at least Midnight Marauders and The Low End Theory, but Anthology succeeds in delivering all the highest points from a great hip-hop group's career. The collection also includes the first solo track from Q-Tip, 1999's "Vivrant Thing."

Biography

A Tribe Called Quest

Without question the most intelligent, artistic rap group during the 1990s, A Tribe Called Quest jump-started and perfected the hip-hop alternative to hardcore and gangsta rap. In essence, they abandoned the macho posturing rap music had been constructed upon, and focused instead on abstract philosophy and message tracks. The "sucka MC" theme had never been completely i... Read more
