    Just saw this on Twitter, can't wait for this one. The most albums I own of any single rap artist/group is Tribe, and only 2nd in my whole collection to the Smashing Pumpkins.

    Hearing all the classics interspersed through the trailer gives me chills. Should be interesting.

    That looks awesome except for the annoying type style/font used for the titles. I almost forgot all about Monie Love. I can't believe she's in it. That's great, and of course De La Soul would have to be in it, or it would lose all credibility.

    I had no idea there was bad blood between Fife, and QTip. I want only good things for them. Hopefully something is worked out or has been.

    Rap veteran Q-Tip has called out the makers of an upcoming A Tribe Called Quest documentary reportedly being put together by director/actor Michael Rapaport.

    Tip hit up his Twitter page to express his frustrations over leaked footage from the film.

    "I am not in support of the a tribe called quest documentary," Tip tweeted Thursday (December 2).

    "The filmmaker should respect the band to the point of honoring the few requests that's was made abt the piece"

    "The filmmaker shld respect the band enough to honor our request regarding the the film" (Q-Tip's Twitter)

    The Texas show dates appear to be July 29th in Austin, Dallas, and Houston. Fort Worth and San Antonio come a bit later, then uh... El Paso.

    Last I heard, someone caught his heart for the evening and helped him find his way.

    Any details?

    Fife was always like VINNIE in Naught by Nature
    Just an Add on . .. a hype man
    I Flava Flave to TIP's Chuck D.

    Fife just seemed to think more of himself than he was
    He was a'ight but nothing special

    I don't know. Fife came up with some great rhymes and was the lead or at least co-lead on more songs for Tribe than Flava was for PE.

    There was some bad blood with Fife's diabetes and how he felt Tip ignored it, or used it to put him in bad situations. Fife felt he wasn't getting the consideration he deserved. Tip always had other things going on as well, and I think got annoyed with Fife's antics.

    That's what I got out of the documentary. But they always seemed to be able to come together and tour again when it was beneficial for them. I really liked the early part of their career and the comments on the community they created with De La Soul, and others.

    It was a cool documentary.
