The fruition of hip-hop intelligence and innovation
A Tribe Called Quest's debut album is a cornerstone of alternative hip hop.
The production, which makes extensive use of jazz samples, and Q-Tip's unique flow brought a fresh surprise. The Afrocentric ideas and humor coexist, greatly expanding the realm of hip-hop expression. As a member of Native Tongues, this is a historic work that revolutionized the hip-hop scene in the early 1990s.
