Summary

331/3 While A Tribe Called Quest was a sample-heavy group, they steered away from the ubiquitous funk and old-school soul samples of their fellow Native Tongue members and embraced rock and roll and jazz; this musical form would become their signature style. ATCQ was positioned equidistant between De La Soul and the Jungle Brothers. They were socially relevant, proudly black and whimsical, quirky and confident, a near perfect amalgamation of the other two groups. But don't get it twisted: Tribe hit our eardrums on their own terms, with a sound that was all theirs.
