Who else agrees a Roots and ATCQ collab album would have been the greatest thing ever?

[@Maal7432]

RIP Phife, you were truly a legend

[@DrBigFMC]

I love how QTip was just planning to do the second half but Tariq was like nah 😆 🤣

[@kennycooper294]

i honestly think he forgot lol

[@LeHenkmanz]

Black Thought man. Did the verse and changed several lines to make it about him. One of the GOATS period

[@archol6596]

I agree he is one of the GOATs but it's easy to change lyrics

[@gl0bal7474]

Yup. Hes a true master

[@NoxHardigan]

True Hip Hop will never die.

[@cristianoliveira2015]

The Q-Tip voice is awesome and the band is perfect! Thanks!

[@TheIvoryrocker]

CAN WE JUST TAKE A MOMENT TO APPRECIATE THIS

[@disco3466]

Incredible! ....I saw Tribe live in 90'..08'...and 12'....I'm forever blessed!

[@colstonlchinese]

Me too

[@yaboyschooledya]

Rest in Power Phife....thank you 4 your service

[@newenvisionedgrowth]

Black Thought was like “nah you not gonna mess with my jam” homage as a true fan even though he too is a beast with it. And the look on Kamaal’s face was like “hol up, I did that on purpose and you just came in and…”🤭

[@MrKapsou]

2 of the greatest hip hop groups of all time

[@byanymeansnecessary9329]

Three if you count Talib from Black Star, and they are all Native Tongues and Soulquarians

[@yoitsjase83]

one of the best hip hop songs ever made hands down it's great seeing hip hop legends come together

[@SankofaLectureSeries]

We envy those in the room who witnessed this LIVE ... #HipHoplegends

[@BensVFX07]

This is hip hop history

[@js-jay1uno]

Three of my favorites artists, Q-Tip, Talib and Black thought..... Mad love all the way from South Africa. Hip Hop aint the same know more. Still need to see the Roots live then my life will be complete.

[@JMHengst3]

so much talent on that stage... all on my favorites to see live, let alone listen to all the time...

[@disco3466]

...I need the Phife Dog

[@rochiggidy]

Q-TIP HE IS MY MAN

[@BlackMaleSpirituality]

This song is such a vibe. RIP Phife!

[@jason_]

Happy 20th anniversary to Midnight Marauders released November 9, 1993 on Jive Records.

[@escobor]

it is still missing someone. no one can play Phife's role. even Black Thought.

[@kateyeh2847]

If they could get J Dilla and Phife , that's what I think "PERFECT"!
Rhythm in peace.

[@MusicIsForLife81]

I was thinking the same thing--it is good, but without, "Phife Diggy and I got something to say," it is just not the same.

[@MarkieB89]

Right

[@aslaammahdi3244]

He did good

[@parabellum5503]

I agree but absent that Thought is perfect.

[@augustrose5]

that little move that Tip does at 2:53 (faints)

[@pateastwood]

"I'll have you weak in the knees that you could hardly speak" he was dancing the hell out of that line

[@GoggleMan25]

I would love to see a collab album of Q-Tip, The Roots, Mos Def, Talib and Common

[@jaredcherry7416]

Damn Black Thought cutting off Q-tip on his own song.Both solid professionals tho kept it together.

[@JJRichardson_]

I feel you

[@tribecalledmaya]

all my favorites performing a dope version of my favorite tribe song, heaven to the ears.

[@YAHAZIAH]

Yo!!! This just made me SERIOUSLY happy.

[@nofx989]

This has to be probably the most conentrated example of pure talent on one stage! And not even talking about their influence on other artist! Simply perfect! Long live the roots crew!

[@Faaade_]

I was thinking the same thing...no way I could have just been relaxed..lol I love them all

[@stefanyoo5881]

My eyes always water up bc (black thought one of the goat, no disrespect) phife was such a beast in his craft... miss you man, your music made my life

[@jthomas8323]

I would've loved to have seen this show live for real.
Of course the original with Phife, Ali and Jarobee would be the best
though.

[@spacepunk_nappy]

Life is now perfect.....See?Perfection is attainable....

[@antonioanderson1825]

Amazing, the best version from music!

[@GabeReal9009]

[@yvonneherring1871]

[@disco3466]

They just fuckin' around but the lyrical talent on the stage is incredible.

[@WillRobinsonDanger]

WE NEED A REMAKE OF THIS ONE HERE!!!!! THIS HERE IS MY JAM AND JOINT!!!!

[@disco3466]

For those that think "Thought" disrespected "Tip"...you trippin'...It was respect..."Thought" and "Tip" are tight and "Thought" was holdin' "Tip" accountable.

[@kennycooper294]

tip might have forgot for real lol

[@saynicklos3053]

Tip said he was trying to cut it down. Hell he was probably tired.
