Description
A Tribe Called Quest: Beats Rhymes & Life Vinyl 2LP
The fourth Tribe album from 1996 in its original double vinyl, pic sleeve format. These days this album is most noted for the rise of Jay Dee (aka J Dilla) & The Ummah on production plus the presence of Consequence (aka Q-Tip’s cousin) guesting on several tracks. Like anything Tribe post-Marauders, this album sounds a bit removed from the pressure of the nineties, but still bumps from beginning to end. Check out: “Get A Hold,” “Jam,” “1nce Again” with Tammy Lucas, “The Hop,” “Phony Rappers” and “Stressed Out” with Faith Evans. 15 tracks total.
