Great post, and one of the greats of hip hop. Managed to see them on when they toured Australia for the first and only time in 2010, they definitely didn't disappoint. I took a mate that didn't like hip hop without telling him who we were seeing, he's been a hip hop fan since. In 2009 The Roots pulled out of a festival over here and Q-Tip replaced them, again he didn't disappoint. I've seen a lot of hip hop over the years and A Tribe Called Quest were as good as anything i've seen.
