“Groove Is In The Heart”
Okay, ya’ll might think King Jerm is tripping with this one, but I had to take it WAAAAAAY back with this one. This song came on at a bar the other night and the place went crazy! Before you say this isn’t Hip-Hop, the song features Q-Tip of A Tribe Called Quest and it has [...]
The Numbers Game: Jay-Z Still #1 + Kid Cudi, Drake, Lil’ Boosie Debut In Top 10
I guess we can stop bitching about the lack of Hip-Hop album releases (Well, at least for this week), because we have 7 Hip-Hop debuts on the charts this week. Yeah. I can’t even do any rambling in this intro. Let’s just get to the numbers
De La Soul|De La Soul Is Dead [1991]

Turn Yo’ Headphones Up: A Tribe Called Quest [Mixtape]

The Numbers Game: Q-Tip Lands At #11

Q-Tip|The Renaissance
He is simply a legend in the game. Tip is one of those guys that just knows how to make good music. From all those years with A Tribe Called Quest (ATCQ), to his solo debut and the little heard jazzy Kamaal The Abstract, its evident that dude just gets it. He’s benefited from always [...]
