NATIVE TONGUES 101:A TRIBE CALLED QUEST,DE LA SOUL & JUNGLE BROTHERS:THE AFROCENTRIC JAZZ/HIP-HOP/HOUSE/ECLECTIC FUSION ERA
Now… Native Tongues as a collective came out in full force in the late 1980’s & early 1990’s with a fusion of Jazz, Hip-Hop,House & a smooth Eclectic flare the likes of witch HIP-HOP had never seen Before!!!! In fact they influenced an entire generation after them with group’s such as CAMP LO, DIGGABLE PLANETS & even as resent as DYME~A~DUZIN. Now Jungle Brothers came out First then De la soul & then Tribe. The song "Scenario" was the final track on A Tribe Called Quest album The Low End Theory and featured Leaders of the New School—Dinco D, Busta Rhymes,& Charlie Brown! Launching Busta into the Mainstream. But In my personal Opinion at the time Tribe just took it yoa! Not because they were the most commercially successful but because the mix was just right!Busta would come into his own later & form FLIPMODE SQUAD!!! Now all 3 of these groups were “consciously together ” but moved separately. not so much as a whole much like Wu does now. Plus with the changes of the industry looming Tribe has broken up gotten back together broken up then back together again.Going back n forth Formulating what is commonly known in Real Hip-Hop as the “GROUP CURSE” Meaning: No GREAT HIP-HOP group can stay together for 2 long because 1 person shines 2 brightly henceforth & so on.But to describe these brothers as “Legends” would be an UNDERSTATEMENT!!! Now I could go into their complex history & who else they colabo’ed with like “Monie Love” which you will see in “buddy” below but It really was about enlightenment & fun in the Golden Era yall!!!& Everybody was just hammering at droppin knowledge!!!It wasn’t about Singular ego or pride.

Now…On the real “De La soul” has their own “DIE HARD” Fan base as well & have even done songs’ as resent with the Gorillaz Feel Good Inc. But when it’s all said n done… it is about survival of the fittest in this Game & Q-Tip would be the strongest out of the whole doing commercials for Budweiser, Video games and various House songs. But Tribe is said 2 be putting together a tour so that’s a good thing. I just would like 2 see another album YOA!! lol!!DIE HARD Wishful thinking.*sigh* Well I would like 2 get “technical” but Abstract was far from it!!!The abstract is just about being cool & smoooooooth!!! Now I know Tribe, De la & J.B. Fans will be reading this Blog meticulously so I did my best to represent each groups “BEST WORK” Also… Because Q- Tip & Tribe has so many hit’s This blog could go on for like… forever {Like Bonita Applebum, Midnight, can I kick it,or Q-Tip’s “Grove is in The Heart” with Deee-Lite.} “BUT” that would not be fair to the other groups for continuity. Sorry tribers :/ but you’ll get your Fill!!!lol!!! so enjoy A Tribe called quest - Scenario,De La Soul "Buddy",A Tribe Called Quest "Award Tour",De La Soul me Myself & I,A Tribe Called Quest "Electric Relaxation",A Tribe called quest - "Jazz(We've Got) & Buggin' Out",Q-Tip - Vivrant Thing,Gorillaz featuring De La Soul - Feel Good Inc.,Chemical Brothers ft Q-Tip- Galvanize
