Yup, A Tribe Called Quest... their second album The Lowend Theory... it's REALLY nice... the beats are fantastic, and the jazz samples are sweet!!! Oh, and the rapping is cool too... I'm really getting into this hip-hop thang... :)

he doesn't try too hard when it comes to hip-hop. me and some others here have made some really great recommendations (i even went out of my way to suggest things i know he'd like, based on what he's liked recently) and he's said he has no interest in hip-hop and won't be checking out anything with rap vocals. i'm glad he got into tribe but he's really just on the tip of the iceberg.

What do u mean?
Theres a lot of hip hop heads on this forum so dont front.
Funkmaster: Im glad u liked it :) Its a nice album (not that rap cliche thang) but as Titsworth said its just on the tip of the iceberg.
Its not even in my top 10 list. Its sure is a classic tho.
I definitly recommend Blackalicious, Pharcyde, The Roots, Common etc

Low End Theory and Midnight Mauraders are both in my top 10 hip hop albums of all time, although I have had them on vinyl for maybe 7 years now ;)

I'm just getting into hip-hop tits... you're already well into the music, and have been for years I'm sure... I'm just starting... so sue me if I don't have a lot from the genre, and so sue me if I'm late getting into the music... it never did anything for me before, but recently it has started... and, I knew ATCQ did jazzy music, plus I like Q-Tip, and Phifes voices, so I decided to get this... I've read excellent things about it, so it was a good choice for me... and I'm happy with it...

hmmm, don't take that as me being angry, or annoyed... I don't want you to get the wrong idea... I'm not... I'm just saying that I'm just starting to get into hip-hop, and ATCQ seemed like my thing... :)

if you like the tribe, you should definetly get some Roots funk, I recomend either Illedelph Halflife or Things Fall Apart, great albums

Methinks I can smell a bit of musical snobbery in this thread. I mean, Funkmaster's just recently got into a Tribe Called Quest - so what? Good for him.
I'm sure Funkmaster likes stuff that none of us have heard of yet.

i'd like to quote something i said several posts ago in this thread: "i'm glad he got into tribe"! it's an excellent choice! i was just griping about how i make recommendations and they go unappreciated. i'm not asking the man to go out and spend $100 based on my word alone, but maybe download some mp3's or listen to something owned by a friend and IF he likes it buy it some time. i like funkmaster, that's why i recommend music to him and other people! anyway, this isn't some titsworth vs. funkmaster / zeus vs. everyone type shit so let's just stop it right here. all i'll say is that i agree with what's been said, if you like tribe check out a) their album 'midnight mauraders' [sp] and b) the roots! they're one of my favorite groups, my girlfriend and i just saw them 2 nights ago in virginia. they're the world's leading 'hip-hop band' (live instruments, no samples) and they have a very strong jazz influence. i recommend starting with "illadelph halflife"!

well see it's only been this week or so that I've been listening to some rap... and only the other day that I bought The Lowend Theory... when you recommended me some hip-hop I wasn't really listening to any rap... if you could suggest some good tracks from The Roots, then I'll download em... if I can get on Soulseek...

Thanks for the suggestions, I'll start with a few of them...
