Q-Tip + The RZA = 2 musical geniuses
I had a friend in the music industry in
los angeles in the early 90s and she would give me all the promo tapes and cd's 💿 she would get and I remember getting promo copys of wu tang, tribe and biggie ect and many more artists of that era! What a great Era for the culture!
1993 is arguably the greatest year for hip hop!
Besides these 2 you also had

I know I'm missing some!
That LONS album is nothing less than an artistic masterpiece! Charlie Brown literally sounds like Charlie Parker's trumpet on one song. Unfortunately it was too artistic or experimental for the masses because it didn't sell well, and it was the final nail that broke the group. Busta talked about making that album as the group was unraveling on VLADtv.
BACDAFUCUP as well.
Mac Mall "Illegal Business" and The Alkaholiks "21 and Over" as well..
@@juniorjames7076you mean Charlie Parker’s sax. He played sax. And you’re right Charlie Brown was ripping that jazz flow
KRS-One’s Return Of The Boom Bap was a beast of an album to that year.
Midnight marauders had serious bangers, but 36 chambers was a groundbreaking album top to bottom!
Funny thing is I fell in love with hip hop when I heard Check the Rhyme and Da Mystery of Chessboxin.
Fun fact: I was born that same day. Makes me feel special😊
Honestly as a Brooklyn NYer I was 16 30 years ago when both these albums dropped they were considered amazing albums The Wu more then Tribe but nobody was thinking classics they were just two dope albums
“But nobody was thinking classics they were just dope albums.” I haven’t heard that one in a while and that’s just absolute facts.
@@someordinaryplayer209thank you i was 14 when I first heard " Protect Ya Neck" on WBLS when Dj Kid Capri had his own weekdays mix show here in NY in the evenings back" in '91 and then I saw the music video in '93 on Video Music Box when I was 16 years old that is a fact it was just good music at that time we didn't know how lucky we we're until you listen to the music out now.
Facts. Back then it was rare for someone to slap the term classic on an album that just came out and didn’t even get to age yet. They were looked at as two dope albums and they happened to become classics. I was 13 when these albums dropped and was hooked on the music of both groups.
@@williemakeit2346 that's a fact nobody was using the term classic that's all new it was is it a album dope that was it.
I was 15 years old when these two albums dropped. I bought the tribe album that saturday (November 13th 1993) I only had enough money to buy one and it was a tough decision! By late December my friend and saved up a few dollars together and finally bought the wu-tang album. I still own both cassettes today. Those were two of the most important albums in developing my love for Hip-Hop. These albums were and still are precious art that is built to last not cookie cutter, throw away garbage rap.
In '93/'94, I would go into a record store in the mall like The Whiz or Tape World or Virgin and I would get confused about what to buy, because soooo damn many artists on the shelves were so damn good! You'd go broke !! Many times I would leave without buying anything! Had to think it over in the food court! Hell, today I'm still discovering artists I slept on back in '90s. It truly was a Golden Age, but it sucks that we didn't realize it at the time.
"Enter the Wu-Tang" got me through some tough shit while living in Venezuela!!

Electric Relaxation and Protect Ya Neck
I 100% agree. There has never been a release day so impactful in hip hop. 2 of the most magnificent albums in all of music.
Can it be so simple. Blew me away
This is a great video. People have spoken about these albums a million times but this is to-the-point and in depth, not diverting from what's really important about these two projects. Well done.
Thank you!!
Extra P put it down on"Keep it Rollin'", glad that was established
That tribe album slaps but honestly low end theory is better
I remember getting my paycheck from my nursing home job the day these dropped & bought both of these on cassette
As one who was there in that era I gotta correct you on one point, sub genres were a thing even back then. Commercial rap was repeatedly denounced by underground and hardcore rappers. Even Tribe AND Wu took aim at rappers who “crossed over”. If you were an MC Hammer or Vanilla Ice, or riding the New Jack Swing bandwagon, MCs were gonna call you out over it in their songs. Peep EPMD’s 1992 song “Crossover”.
Let’s not re-write history, instead I encourage you to do your homework more on this era. Aside from that, beautiful and excellent tribute to two immortal hip hop masterpieces. You have yourself a new subscriber.
I can’t believe how many RUclips videos out there are giving Midnight Marauders its flowers! When I first heard that album I was like “this is a beautiful classic”! In fact, I also thought it was better than Illmatic (I actually still do).
I remember being on a high school playoff bus trip after these came out. Half of us were listening to Tribe. The other thuggier half was Wu-ing out over CREAM and Protect Ya Neck. Having come from Low End Theory I was deeply invested in Tribe and hating on Wu-Tang for a couple of months. A few months later I gave 36 chambers the listen it deserved and fell in love.
Welp, you already know what I’m listening to this week. These iconic albums turn 30 on Thursday 🙏🏿.
I like how your banner is in reference to the iconic photo of the same name! I thought this video was going to be about that but this is cool too.
2 OF THE GREATESTS LP EVER!
And The late Great Rapper Eyedea was born on that day as well
Crazy!!
Being thats my birthday, Im surprised i didnt know. Appreciate the knowledge
Great Video!!!!!
BRAVO!
So beautiful 👑
#LEGENDARY so blessed i grew up in that era to bare witness to this
Great Video. As always. Couldn't agree more on the content.
Much appreciated!
Black Noon's Enta Da Stage was released 3 weeks earlier on 10/19/93.
great vid man and tribe was the main reason I got into making music and rapping
Peace from California! ✌🏽
I have both these classics on vinyl
Ironically, these are the first 2 hip hop albums I EVER bought, and I bought them on this day…..oblivious to the significance
i love your videos man
Thank you 🤝
I remember that day .
This channel 👊🏿👌🏿❤️
🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥
i can not believe my two fav groups put out an album on the same day. i dont remember this being on the same day because i was living out of the country
Bought both of these on the day they came out. Favorite tracks? Has to be Lyrics to Go, Midnight & We Can Get Down "It's like that man It's like that, Yes!" For Wu it has to be Da mystery of Chessboxin' Shame on A Nuh! & Clan in da Front
ATCQ and Wu Tang are some of the greatest musical acts of all time. Love midnight marauders but 36 chambers is definitely more iconic
The engineer contrast of these albums. Bob rockwho was a Bon Jovi/Metallica producer began engineering with tribe on the midnight album. The sound was pioneering. 36 had no engineering in mind and brought a gritty sound
Nice video time travel hip hop history amazing a tribe called quest and wu both my favorite album hip hop best Album
Both are classic albums but the Wu is played more in my house.
I was there when the Wu was posting stickers everywhere.
thats kind of dope how you didnt pit them against each other even to see which one charted. my music to this very day is a mix of tribe and wu to my ears lol
First of all great video. You did a good job putting it together. I respect your opinion these two albums were dope, and 36 chambers is arguably the best album ever, but I have to say I kind of disagree the greatness of 1993 culminated when ATCQ and WU dropped their albums. I agree its a dope album, I respect your opinion but to put it all on these two albums is denying the greatness of the rest of that year and how influential they were. Just looking at east coast albums there were many many dope and influential albums dropped that year, " Return of the boom bap" by krsone, "Enta da stage" by Black Moon, "Here comes the lords" by LOTUG. SO many dope albums by other artist like Onyx, digable planets, masta ace, Tim dog, fat joe, De La Soul etc etc....And if we move on to the west coast the list is just as impressive, Cypess hills black sunday album dropped that summer. Snoops first album dropps that year, Souls of mischiefs 93 til infinity is one of my personal favorites. So many dope albums came out that year. There were also some of the best movie soundtracks dropped that year. Overall it was the best year in Hip Hop IMO. And yes I agree the Wu tangs and atcq albums were dope but I wouldn't put it all on them. There were too many dope ablums that year. Also the June 1993 edition of "The Source" Magazine was the best edition of that magazine ever dropped!! Again it all comes down to personal opinion. Great video, Peace!!
Sept. 29th, 1998: OutKast "Aquemini", Mos Def & Talib Kewli "Black Star", A Tribe Called Quest "The Love Movement", Jay-Z "Hard Knock Life" Volume 2 (Greatest Day in Hip-Hop history)
These where the dayz.
I'm on a world tour with a mic in my hand..
❤️💚🖤🐝👐🏼
Idk why but I just can’t get into the tribe album. 36 Chambers however, had a profound impact on me 😮💨
Which had more sales????
KRS-One* 0:42
Bro… my birthday is
November 9th, 1999
Tell me im not finna be the greatest rapper alive 🫣
I think conscious rap was a thing then,the first conscious rap song was in the 80s. I guess you mean it wasn't mentioned as a genre?
For sure, conscious hip-hop has 100% been around since the beginning. It wasn’t until the mid-90s when it started being marketed as something separate than the mainstream though. Public Enemy and KRS-One now would be considered conscious, but in the 80s they weren’t put in that box and were thought of as some of the biggest hip-hop artists in general
@@DefGoldbloom oh ok thank you for the reply
First
Spirituals, Ragtime, Jazz, Country, Gospel, Bluegrass, Folk, Rock n Roll, Doo-Wop, Soul, Funk, Disco, Punk, House and of course Rap and Hip Hop---all enjoy well documented African American roots coupled with undeniable Black American influence---whether directly or indirectly..
Latinos -- Puerto Ricans particularly -- please explain how you co-created or co-invented yet another installment in the legacy of Black Musical expression known as Rap and Hip Hop, yet didn't co-create or co-invent any of the elements or ingredients of the 14 or so African American music forms that preceeded it? Or why you were nowhere to be found and absent during the creative and inventive foundation outlining the forms of African American musical expression, brilliance and greatness throughout, or even prior to the previous 14 or so African American music forms that are mentioned above? Yet then, all of a sudden--and out of nowhere, lying latinos and jamaicans slither along and falsely claim latinos and/or puerto ricans and jamaicans co-created and co-invented Rap and Hip Hop 50/50 half n half (which is the evidence-free and utter nonsense being peddled by Dr. Derrick Colon, radical latino, Fat Joe and numerous other un-informed and envious latinos---which are claims that latinos never mentioned, verbalized or asserted during its inception in the early 1970's)---latinos claims of "50/50--half & half co-creation and co-invention just don't add up---it makes no sense and are increasingly coming under heavy scrutiny which is leading to these claims being easily debunked--widespread. Nice try though latinos, puerto ricans and jamaicans.
Make it make sense Latinos
This is not the greatest day in hip hop history some of y'all just make shit up. A lot of hip hop purest feel it was one of the last great days for pure hip hop. After 1993 it became all about gangsta rap and lost the essence of what hip hop really is. But it's not the greatest day smh. U need to check out some of those great days in years like 1988 for instance.
Midnight was better
It’s all subjective. Those who favor the more grimy gritty style of hip hop would say 36 Chambers is better.
I was only 1 years old when both these albums dropped. I bought both albums when I was 19 but Midnight Marauders hands down is my favorite hip hop album of all time. The 90s especially the early 90s was the true golden age of hip hop
