Midnight Marauders

Product Information

Rap Promoter-A truthful hardcore attack of what's going on in the rap industry for what I can related for what's happen of today's rap industry. Excursions" contains samples from "Time Is Running Out" performed by The Last Poets and written by Omar Ben Hassen. I didnt care much for VMP (probably because I'm not in US) but since I got my hands on this one I can see I made a big mistake.

Production-wise, Tribe graduates from a cool school aesthetic to an electric jazz sound (reminiscent of fusion-era Miles Davis).A 1991 landscape-changing release from the pioneering hip-hop group, The Low End Theory embraced a minimalist approach and set the tables for the alternate rap movement that followed. Tip and Dawg rap about truth of self, and uplifting the nation full of ignorance and racial inequalities, and how to treat woman in a misogynist society.

Excursions-Q-Tip explains hip hop reminds him and his dad of jazz music because jazz music introduces the world to hip hop along with funk and James Brown. Vibes and Stuff-A good realistic song when they give real dedication to hip-hoppers like Trouble T-Roy before 2Pac,Biggie,Eazy,etc. Of course, they're all superb, but 1993's "Midnight Marauders" - their third full-length - may well be the best of all.

The album holds immense cultural and emotional importance as it marks the group's first release following the passing of their founding member, Malik "Phife Dawg" Taylor, who died in March 2016 due to complications from diabetes. They were part of the Native Tongues Posse along with Queen Latifah, De La Soul, Black Sheep, Monie Love, and the Jungle Brothers. Easily recognized for their unique approach to rap music by employing jazz infused soundscapes to Afro centric rhymes, ATCQ was largely responsible for the popularity of a new genre that dominated the East Coast sound of the early 1990s. Review: We're big fans of these educational 7"s that often crop up, with a legendary hip hop jam on one side and the source of some its samples appearing on the flip.
