The Anthology - Tribe Called Quest (A) (CD 1999)

A Tribe Called Quest is an incredible group. Q-Tip and Phife Dog really know how to throw down some smooth, classic songs. These guys pumped out several incredible CD's in their decade of music-making in the 90's, and they're still just as fresh-sounding as when they came out. However, if you're not able to find or purchase all their albums, you might ask, is there one album that contains some of A Tribe Called Quest's greatest hits, and gives a good snapshot of the kind of group they are and the music they make?
With The Anthology, the answer is yes. The CD contains a fine sampling of the group's finest, although some classics are left out - however, this is understandable, as you can only include so many songs on one CD. More well-known songs such as "Check the Rhime," "Can I Kick It?," and "Award Tour," and other great songs sampled from all their albums; also, Q-Tip's latest hit "Vivrant Thing" is included, as well as ATCQ's underground rarity "If the Papes Come."
In summary, this album gives a great snapshot of the jazz-infused, body-moving hip-hop that is A Tribe Called Quest. I would recommend this buy to anyone.

The perfect CD to get the Tribe fix us children of the 80's love!There is nothing I dislike about this CD. I decided to buy it because it a must have for any true Hip Hop fan.
