Text EntriesA Tribe Called Quest (ATCQ) is an alternative/Jazz Rap Hip-Hop group from Queens, New York. Members of the group included Q-Tip (Kamaal Fareed, b. 1970), Phife Dawg (Malik Taylor, 1970-2016), Ali Shaheed Muhammad (Ali Shaheed Muhammad, b. 1970) and Jarobi (Jarobi White, b. 1971). The group was popular in the 1990s era of conscious Hip-Hop. Considered the most intelligent, artistic Rap group, ATCQ rapped about numerous black issues, social consciousness, and the music industry. Signed to Jive by 1989, ATCQ released their debut album, People's Instinctive Travels and the Paths of Rhythm (1990). While their debut album was successful, their second album The Low End Theory (1991) is considered one of the greatest Hip-Hop albums of all time, included on Rolling Stone's 100 Best Albums of the '90s and reaching platinum status by 1995.
