Consisting of official members Q-Tip, Phife Dawg, Jarobi, and Ali Shaheed Muhammad, the gorup first formed in new York City in 1985 before exploding onto the scene in the ealy 90's with their legendary albums "People's Instinctive Travels and the Paths of Rythm," "The Low End Theory," and "Midnight Marauders."
They also formed close relationships along the way with Busta Rhymes, De La Soul, and the Native Tongues collective before calling it quits. But in 2016, they reunited for one final album, recorded before the untimely death of Phife Dawg from diabetes. Here's the Untold Truth of A Tribe Called Quest.

What's your favorite song from A Tribe Called Quest?
It's out of Electric Relaxation, Award Tour, Scenario, Jazz, Buggin Out, We Can Get Down, Clap Your Hands.
@@marlenemounce1 You on point, Phife?
"I Left My Wallet in El Segundo" is where its at
We're on award tour with Muhammad my man! And Bonita Applebum original and remix.
Bonita Applebaum.
Tribe Called Quest defined hip hop in the 90s they're the most underrated group of all time the fusion of Jazz and Hip hop was a perfect marriage with a deep message.
Lots of 90s group s are underated like stetsesonic remember them
They are not underrated lol
@@vznquest Who told you
@@HightopRob i think Tribe gets their dues. maybe not in jay-z level popularity or sales. but they are recognized by real heads and the culture at large. there was a big vote on a big website a few years ago - for the GOAT hip hop group. wu-tang and tribe made it to the finals and the wu barely edged them out. Tribe is recognized.
Under rated by who?..lolol
Q-Tip has looked pretty much exactly the same since the early 90's. It's wild. Dude does not age at all
Him and nas are friends so
At All I said the same thing..
he take real good care of himself
Midnight Marauders IMO is their masterpiece barely edging out The Low End Theory
Yessir!!
I still have most of my albums on cassettes🤣🤣🤣
Low End Theory edges Midnight Marauders IMO due to the source material sampled. Low End is an album for Crate Diggers!
I like low end theory too
despite not getting as much attention as their other 3 albums that released back then, Beats, Rhymes and Life is my favorite album of theirs.
R.I.P. Phife Dawg
The Low End Theory was released the year I was born and remains my personal favorite by the group.
THEY INSPIRE ME TO HEAD TOWARD THAT JAZZ FEEL !
Different there best album💯
Midnight Marauders is also their masterpiece. Same with We Got It from Here… Marauders still remains my favourite though.
ik its not considered tribe's best album but beats rhymes and life is easily my favourite album from ATCQ, word play, get a hold, mind power, and the hop are just too good, if phife had a few more verses it would be a 10/10 album
Low End Theory is the greatest joint ever created. period. ATQC changed my life - R.I.P brotha Phife
That album twists peoples entire catalogues
*ATCQ
@@blue9multimediagroup was a typo but good looking out
The Native Tongues, The SoulQuarians, The GangStarr Foundations, The D.I.T.C. The artists within those collectives are ALL I'm going to ever need in music
What about BCC?
I listen to A tribe called quest almost everyday while doing deliveries at work.
I feel like I am in a time machine traveling back in time feeling the good vibration, which is definitely needed in these dark times.
I want to to thank these brothers for keeping the pure essence of the culture alive.
I also thank God for being a 80’s baby!
You'd be a grand person to work wiv.
7:13 that's *Illa J* not J-Dilla. Illa J is Dilla's brother and that song "Won't Do" where that clip is from was produced by Dilla years back. There's more than enough material on YT to showcase the great J-Dilla at work. Salutes *Ma Dukes* and Slum Village.
They also mistook Consequence in place of Phife dog. Although the narrator is Black, this video was produced by White clout chasers who have no knowledge of Tribe that’s not on gossip sites or Wikipedia.
@@shlidgn90 I don't like the way he pronounced "DE La Soul" personally. Bothered me a lil.
I was like "WTF!" THAT'S NOT J DILLA
I miss the hip-hop and most any music from back in the day....good times, great vibes🎼🎶🎵❤
It's still here
Iam to young to miss it but damn this new hip hop shit is just so bad i wish i lifed in the 90s
@@roygerritsma99 Cringe
My Favorite album was Midnight Marauders!
ATCQ did not start the native tongues, jungle brothers did. they got that way wrong.
J Breeze and THE JB's! handle B.I like a true BLUE JUNGLE G.I!!!!!
I left when they said that cause now I don’t believe nun u saying lol
"Bust off on your couch now you got seamens furniture" 💪R.I.P. phife Dawg!!🙏
greatest hiphop group of all time
OF ALL TIME
I agree 100 percent
The low end theory!!!a hip hop classic!!!
YEAH
RIP Fife Dawg!!!
Q-Tip solo album Kamaal the Abstract is the best rap jazz ever.
Feelin is the anthem!!!
@@mangadolo I LOVE THAT ALBUM. Its the best Jazz Rap album ever.
That album predated Andre 3000s The Love Below's sound and approach and most people don't even know that.
@@MarcPlaysDrums absolutely!!! I had the whole Kamaal album from Kazaa in like 2001 years before LA Reid finally released it. I used to tell folks same thing, ‘Love Below’ was highly influenced by it! … Tip gets slept on sometimes. His track “Work it Out” is dope too!
Busta is Officailly in Tribe now. Hes always been an honorary member but.... I'm glad hes official after 25+ years lol. The Tribe is still one of the Top 5 rap groups in the world
Midnight Marauders is my introduction to A Tribe Called Quest and forever my favorite album by the Tribe
We got the jazz, we got the jazz....
If you asked me what my favorite song or album, I don't have one I've followed this group since they dropped I was already following Jungle Brothers and De la Soul.
So after following them for over thirty years and still having their music in heavy rotation, I believe that "We got it from here ... Thank you for your service"was their magnum opus.
The symmetry with Phife passing and all the political bullying that was transpiring at the time of the release made it the album we needed in rap.. 2016 was a rough year lost 3 heroes my mom, Prince and Phife Dawg. That being said I think "Thank You" was their absolute best because they took rap back to its roots where we addressed and brought awareness to the horrible ways of the world.
I really liked the documentary when I saw it in the theater. But now, it’s difficult to watch because of all the fighting. I think Tribe is one of the greatest (if not the greatest) Hip Hop groups of all time. The first four records are flawless, with the Low End Theory being their greatest accomplishment. There’s not a song I skip on any of those records. 100, 200, 300 years from now, I hope young people will still be bumpin’ Tribe’s records and will be inspired by their music.
Thanks for creating and uploading this. I thoroughly enjoyed it.
Let's not forget LONS , Brand Nubian, & KMD were unofficial members of the Native Toungues click.
Mmmm, think you're wrong about Brand Nubian.
@@adg_87 even LONS. Busta did an interview where he said all he ever wanted was to be in native tongues but it never happened and he was (fun) pissed about it
@@colinpee no, I think you're right about LONS. I don't recall Nubes though. I'm not even 100 on KMD.
@@adg_87 No. Every REAL rapp head new this.
@@30907bng lol. I'm as real as it gets fam. You talking unofficial. In the heyday of hip hop, u could literally tie anyone in as an unofficial member of a crew. Tribe and the native tongues rocked with EVERYONE who was dope at that time. That's facts.
Easily my favorite rap group.
Ayyyeeeee🎶🎵🎶🎶 ,Bonita Applebum 🍎 That was the Sh*!t A Classic, reminds me of my childhood🥰💕💕
Midnight marauders is the greatest hip hop album of all time!! Top to bottom on replay!!
Tribe is that 🔥 🔥 🔥
Great video, but I wish we could have gotten some insights into their 1998 album The Love Movement. I think it's their most underrated album and would have loved to hear something about it. Oh well, great video nonetheless.
Jeroby spoke on that album saying when they went into the studio. None of them were speaking to each other at the time!
Very underrated group and deserve alot of flowers.
Love these guys too much use to listen to these guys with Sony Studio head phones as I took my train ride to visit my Mom everyday after school at work in the Polo grounds. And then troop back home to Harlem. I practically lived on the train in my teenage years listening to A Tribe Called Quest till my CDs popped and I'd have to buy another copy.
"... My optic presentation sizzles the retina..." That's where the love story began
As soon as you said High school friend instead of Afrika Baby Bam, I was ready to change the channel.
I love tribe honestly, Thank you 4 your service is a perfect last album and I think it’s their best
Baby Bam gave them the name A tribe Called… also gave q-tip his name
Thank you, short, informative, and to the point.
I love the Tribe and I think of them back in the late 80s and early 90s but not in current times. Like any entertainer don't speak on issues if your not educated on it or have some real facts on it.
You my friend deserve a like 👍🏿
The low end theory was my favorite album from them!!!!! God bless you all today Shalom 🙏
That song called( stress out ) ft Faith Evens it kills me too much.........it makes me weak........i dont know how to describe the niceness of it......it's so amazingly nice.....much love from South Africa....
My #1 rap group of all time
Fantastic vid
Love the group
As big as a native tongue fan as i am...the Rush/Red Alert management dispute that caused the rift was news to me
Me,too!! I thought I knew everything. NEVER knew that,though
It was the Jungle Brothers not De la that had issues with tribe. De la was on Rush management as well. DJ Red Alert was initially Tribes manager who is also Mike G of the jungle brothers uncle.
@@Raidertown75 that's how I figured it all went down. De La, later on, had an issue with Jungle and Tribe (Pos referenced on Bulhoone Mindstate's I Am I Be)...not sure if that had anything to do with that management issue though..
@@dn30001 I thought that particular beef was between Pos and Q-Tip (what it was about, to my knowledge, was never clarified).
@@Raidertown75 facts
Low End Theory is my favorite but Midnight Mauraders is just as good
You on point Tip. All the time Phife
Three words: Low End Theory………wayyyy enuff said!!! I’ve had my CD of that great album since the early 90’s. Still love it.
YEAH..I GOT THE Lp
Legends 🙌
I'm from the Westcoast and I gotta admit low end theory and midnight marauders are better than the chronic and doggystyle
tribe for life
Definitely one of the best 3 album runs in Hip-Hop.
To this day it still baffles me how the Grammys didn't bother nominating ATCQ's final album despite having them perform live on stage.
When are we going to honor A Tribe Called Quest. We are celebrating 50 years of Hip Hop. Let's please respect and give the recognition to these legendary, intelligent artist who created outstanding music. Hip Hop Forever❤❤❤
Growing up when your friend lives next door to Qtip and you just walk down linden Blvd passing them in the streets was normal 🔥🔥
I would love to have the unreleased version of “scenario” with De la and BS!😫
OG A TRIBE CALLED QUEST#1
ummm....was The Love Movement & Midnight Marauders mentioned??
also happy 30th aniversary to the low end theory!
Another important tidbit, A tribe called quest performed their new album at the Grammys, but it wasn’t even nominated for a Grammy. Ain’t that a hoot! 🦉
ATCQ didn't start Native Tounges.
It was never even OFFICIALLY a collective.
Yep, it was a few like minded groups that fell together in the late 80s, shout out to Public Enemy for creating the environment for this to happen.
The first 'Native Tongues' group were the Jungle Brothers and the first collab was The Promo ft. Q-Tip on their 88 album Straight Out The Jungle.
So @7:14 that's not Jay Dee, this his brother Illa J
Lol, yeah they messed up with that. However, when that music video came out back in 2006, I thought Illa J was Dilla for a minute. They resemble each other alot.
@@LATQueens he's so talented too!
@@Tapanga620 I agree. He's still putting out music.
Whats the song in the background called?
The real untold truth: It's actually a monk monastery called quest.
🔥♥️🙏🔥
Errr I don’t think this is the “untold truth” when you got some facts wrong and said things that are already public knowledge
best group EVAAAA
Don’t forget, The Beatnuts were part of the Native Tongues too.
ATCQ Forever 💯💯🙏🙏💯💯✊💯✊💯🤟❤❤🕊
My favourite song which i listen to everyday is what’s the scenario
GOAT
❤️🖤👊🏾
i wonder why this type of rap hasn't come back around in the mainstream. They really seem to be sticking to the very lowest vibrational message for the last 30 years
Feel Marauders was slightly edges out Low End Theory
They united at Street Scene in San diego in 2004. I was there lol
Oh snap I forgot about all the rappers who were on the album!!!!!!! Jungle Brothers were very different from the others on the album!!!! And I forgot about the Fact that Busta Rhymes was on the album!!! And I remembered him because I loved the song and the way he rapped!!!!!!!!? And leaders of the new school were decent 👌!!!? But Busta Was the SHIAT!!!!!! And Q-Tip was my dude!!!!! I tried to be schmoove just like him!!!!!! " I wasn't a jock rider back then!!!!!! BUT he was just schmoove and slick !!!!? Power to the people!!!!!!! God bless you all today Shalom 🙏
Wish they couldve recorded a Native Tongues album.
Tribe is the group you play for the guy who says hip hop is trash. Tribe converted millions of former hip hop haters.
A lot of NME reading rock heads fell silent after that album. Suddenly you started hearing indie rock records with samples and rapping, although the Chilli Peppers were doing that from the 80s tbf.
Tribe is still 10x better than Kanye and Jay Z. I find it hilarious how the talents of the 80's cannot be beat! Its only the young punks that start crying cuz they KNOW they were born too late to enjoy quality music
Better than drake.kanye.lil wayne.lil trash 🗑 x.word up son
@@StopBeingRacist a tribe is better than jay z.word up son
You're an idiot for saying tribe is from the 80s
@@gregorynetus5557 Nah you trippin. Lil Wayne actually got bars
@@StopBeingRacist bruh as if tribe is super lyrical, they make social and political commentary but there isnt any wordplay it's very clear cut and dry lyrics lmaoo, I'm no drake fan but smh tribe is no where near being the best lyricists and I love tribes music I got all their albums, I'm just saying they're greatness doesn't surpass to the level of others artists when it comes to other aspects of music
Midnight Mauraders is their masterpiece
Hip hop is witchcraft . Earth wind water fire
Earth is the beat
Wind is the voice
Water is the dancing
Fire is the MC hyping the crowd up
The more you know
R.I.P. Phife Dawg, R.I.P. Dave (Trugoy)…Consequence should’ve NEVER been allowed to collab with them! 😤
The Beatnuts were in The Native Tongues too.
What about the time Fife Dog put a hit out on Q Tip?
Wait huh??
You said what when nah.
Stop the cap...Phife never did that bruh
Never happened!!!
Low End Theory 🎉
🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥☮️☮️☮️☮️☮️
No mention of The Love Movement?
"In this case we Maraud for ears
Hood was killed BEFORE the video was filmed bruh.....
That GEORGY PORGY bit was crowbarred in there. It seemed out of place. Toto and MC Lyte already made songs with GEORGY PORGY in the title, and they were successful. Luther Vandross and Charme also had a great cover of Toto's song.
QUEENS GET THE MONEY.
And the image of Illa J isn’t J dilla but his brother
Why did they show a video of j dillas brother instead of jdilla
I understand what Dave ("Trugoy") RIH meant wit' Native Tongues really has "no order" or hiearchy...TRUE...but it does stem off of the Jungle Brothers and Kool DJ Red Alert which now goes back to the Jazzy 5, and Soul Sonic Force...then, Zulu Nation!!! That Soul Sonic Force/Jazzy 5 connection was too close...you got Jazzy Jay rock'n wit' both...probably an emcee or two (I forgot)! Bam, of course! So, that "Native Tongue" thang was more serious [even if it was for the fans, if nothin' else] than maybe what they took it as! Jungle Brothers is the fathers...they already in cohoosts with Ultra Magnetic/BDP, etc.! Q-Tip is like Jungle Brother #4 ("Black Is Black", "Promo No. 1", and the classic "Promo No. 2"). Then, De La Soul on the same or similar vibe...stem'n from DJ Prince Paul 'n that Stetson Brothers (later, "StetsaSonic") vibe!!! Then, Latifah, through the DJ Mark, the 45 King (who is originally a Bronx native) out in my neck of the woods in North Central Jersey -- the Flava Unit Squad out in Essex County (Newark/East Orange/Irvington/Jersey City is in Hudson County)...Black Sheep, Chi Ali, Money Love, even Leaders of the New School (who started wit' PE's Bomb Squad camp)...spawned heads like Kayne West, J Dilla, Dee-Lite, Consequence, Mos Def, Lucy Pearl, etc.
This is also interesting, spiderman can wait.
Is this Chuck D
Crazy how mainly black artists are criticized with being homophobic. I just watched 16 candles and Molly Ringwald called someone a homophobic slur. Nobody’s talking about that. I guess because she’s white and must’ve had a legitimate reason?
Now this is a great group of friends who started a great group and was really the ones who overcame adversity to become a great group of rappers whose style wasn't the average blueprint!!!!!! Of The rap music of the time !!!! They rapped about rising above the violence and guns and all the wickedness in the streets!!!!!!!? And a lot of other groups were dismissed by the rap community because of the things they were rapping about!!!? And appealing to a much wider audience!!!!!!!? And Hell's KRS-1 was bum rushing PM- Dawn!!!!" On stage and carrying on like a fool!!! I'm soo glad that KRS-1 started getting himself straight after that!!!!!!? Lol" But this group was fly!!!! And had street swagger and a positive message!!!!? After telling you the stories about the streets !!!? But their Rap royalty still today!!!! Didn't they make it into the Rock and Roll Hall of fame!!!!?? Well let me continue watching this video and check out the straight street coolest mugs ever 😎!!!!! God bless you all today Shalom 🙏
But PM Dawn was pop, and Hip Hop wasn't about that (then). Along with MC Hammer and Vanilla Ice, they were seen as intruders in the game. As Q-Tip said in Check The Rhyme:
Rap isn't pop
If you call it that then STOP!
How the hellllllll you didn't speak on midnight maurders!!!!LYRICS TO GO STRIAIGHT CLASSIC IT'S SELF!!!! AND Q-TIP MAKKING SUM OF THE BEST SONGS OF THE 90'S AND HIP HOP HISTORY SUCH AS "CROOKLYN DODGERS" AND "SHOOK ONE'S PT.2".AND WASN'T CHRIS LIGHTLY THERE MANAGER G????
Well he was half right...Chris Lighty was their manager, but he was part of Rush Management (owned by Russell Simmons).
This is terrible. This needs to be re-edited badly. It seems like this has missing parts of Tribes history.
I'M SORRY BUT....SHOUT OUT TO MY BROTHERS FROM LONG ISLAND !!!!!!
Janet was Q tip's woman.
You didn't do your homework.
He never saw Poetic Justice lol
Why even mention that song ?
