Kids...and Ego🔥
-
I have been listening to this album non-stop since the day it dropped.
-
" Solid wall of Sound" is classic Tribe, call and response, great
sample, it may sound slow to you, but they are all rapping fast over it,
I think it's one of the best songs on the album I could hear Jay Z
killing over that beat (the piano). "We the People" beat is decent, the
punchlines are not that good. It seems like it was an execs decision to
be the single released when Hilary won, thinking they would cash in and
resonate with the country. That's probably why they wanted to do it on
SNL days after the election. I don't think its a great song, Tip sounds
like he's on a megaphone for the hook, possibly if a real singer performed the hook it would have sounded better. -
kids is my favorite song. andres verse is the shit
-
whateva will be is sooo good
-
This is a great album.
-
Love this review! Dope take on a dope album!

Pretty good review and I definitely agree with some of the things you said in your Review. I've been a Tribe Fan since 1990 and I still even have all their albums on Tape as well as CD too. As for the new album some of my favourite tracks are "The Space Program", "We The People", "Dis Generation", "Melatonin", "The Killing Season", and "Conrad Tokyo" to name a few. A few things I would of done to make this album even better would be to have a Native Tongues Posse track like a reunion joint, have Big Boi also featured on "Kids" and for some reason I could hear Common, Black Thought or Yasiin Bey (Mos Def) on "We The People". "Dis Generation" could of been even doper if let's say Joey Badass, Logic or J Cole etc was featured on it. And instead of having Kanye West sing on "The Killing Season" I would of had him spit Mr West isn't a Singer he's a dope Emcee. At the end of the day I appreciate that it still has the Vintage ATCQ sound to it and I have a feeling Q Tip mixed it a different way to bring a whole different vibe to their final album. Last but not least I wish Ali Shaheed would of been able to help out with Production I read he was very busy working on scoring "Luke Cage". Regardless the album is great and out of Five I'd give this one Four Mics. Thank you ATCQ we love y'all, RIP Phife Dawg.For those who might be curious my top Three ATCQ Albums in this order1. The Low End Theory (This album changed my Life and made ATCQ my favourite Group)2. Midnight Marauders (Most ATCQ Fans favourite album yes I know it's also classic)3. People's Instinctive Travels And The Paths Of RhythmMuch respect to those who still support real Hip Hop, I can't wait to cop this on CD Peace to all the true Hip Hop Heads Worldwide

This album gets better with every listen without a doubt, similar to pimp a butterfly. Great review btw man.
-
I absolutely love we the people and I totally agree with you on a couple iffy production decisions, another great video man!
-
Whateva Will Be in tha joint for me. On repeat last few days.
-
