Crosstawk

Jon Rind is back in the land of DMP to deliver a whopping dose of hip-hop to the podcast. We're listening to A Tribe Called Quest, the massively influential but still underground 90s crew out of New York City. Jonny and Jon march through the group's classic albums, exploring the music within the greater context of hip-hop, jazz, and more. It's okay if you don't usually like rap music, because you've probably never heard rapping quite like this, much less combined with such smooth, lush music packed with familiar samples and clever lyrics. Here's the set list: 1. Can I Kick It? (People's Instinctive Travels) 2. Bonita Applebaum (People's Instinctive Travels) 3. Excursions (The Low End Theory) 4. Jazz (The Low End Theory) 5. Scenario (The Low End Theory) 6. Butter (The Low End Theory) 7. Award Tour (Midnight Marauders) 8. The Chase, Pt. 2 (Midnight Marauders) 9. Electric Relaxation (Midnight Marauders) 10. Lyrics to Go (Midnight Marauders) 11. 1nce Again  (Beats, Rhymes, and Life) Encore: De La Soul - "Buddy"
