I förra veckan var det hela 25 år sedan A Tribe Called Quest släppte den banbrytande skivan “People’s Instinctive Travels and the Paths of Rhythm”. Skivan som fick toppbetyget “fem mickar” i vårnumret av The Source har genom årens lopp hyllats för sitt jazziga sound och nydanande textskapande signerat Ali Shaheed Muhammed, Q-Tip och Phife Dawg (och Jarobi White som lämnade gruppen 1991).

I samband med detta har Wax Poetics ocH Chris Read satt ihop ett “anniversay”-mixtape. Streama nedan!
