Looking to (re)discover some of the slickest and smartest hip-hop ever unleashed upon human ears? DJ Platurn, of the Oakland Faders, has teamed with local MC Wonway Posibul, of the Secluded Journalists, to remix a host of classic tracks by jazz-rap pioneers A Tribe Called Quest. Titled Best of A Tribe Called Quest Volume 1, the album -- at least in promo copy form -- doesn't provide any track names, and a search on the Net doesn't turn up any either. But our impressive Tribe knowledge informs us at the very least that the disc includes stellar mixes of "Award Tour" and "Sucka Nigga," both from the group's excellent 1993 album Midnight Marauders. Head to Amoeba Music to track this bad boy down.

I agree. Tribes music is some of the illest ever. In fact my boys are throwing a show at the Mighty this weekend (Feb 3rd) staring Tribe Called Quest's Ali Shaheed Muhammad. If your fan of Tribe or good true hip hop its a must that you be in attendance. Come out and support the movement to bring real hip hop to the bay. Go to digunderground.com to get tickets. Tickets in advance are 10.00 and 15.00 at the door. Peace.
