A Tribe Called Quest - Midnight Marauders

The album Tribe Called Quest wanted to make from the very beginning. It's their most even, consistent album of the original trilogy that also includes 'People's Instinctive Travels...' and the 'Low End Theory'. The celebration is there ('Stir It Up'), the jazz drums kick ('Oh My God'), and the stand-up bass dribbles, keeping perfect pace with Q-Tip's unmistakable mic-touch ('Electric Relaxation'). There's even a Native Tongues armistice/reunion with de la Soul ('Awards Tour'). Although it comes together like a seamless tutorial in jazz hip-hop style, it comes together so damn well that it's hard for any one track to excel, cursing the album with consistent quality. That is actually a good thing when listening to the album straight through -- no filler songs.
