This album is really good, after that disappointing ass de la soul album I was pleasantly surprised
― Listen to my homeboy Fantano (D-40), Friday, 11 November 2016 19:30 (seven years ago) link
I actually bought a physical copy of the De La cuz I was so excited and I sold it on Amazon within the week; even got most of my money back b/c it was like new.

Does Jarobi rap on this?
― JRN, Friday, 11 November 2016 20:03 (seven years ago) link
I think so!
― ¶ (DJP), Friday, 11 November 2016 20:04 (seven years ago) link
the Elton interpolation is well done btw
― The burrito of ennui (Alfred, Lord Sotosyn), Friday, 11 November 2016 20:05 (seven years ago) link
xp Yeah, Jarobi's all over these tracks. And he sounds incredible. His voice really complements Phife and Tip's, and he's got some good lines
― Evan R, Friday, 11 November 2016 20:06 (seven years ago) link
Blown away by how great this is. I couldn't have even dreamed about this album being anywhere near this good (especially after that lifeless De La project)
― Evan R, Friday, 11 November 2016 20:07 (seven years ago) link
Shakey, no Spotify?

yeah the elton and jack white guests raised some red flags when the album was announced but they are really unobtrusive

fair

I'm still worried about John Mayer filling in for Phife on SNL, but who knows, maybe they'll pull it off
― Evan R, Friday, 11 November 2016 20:17 (seven years ago) link
jarobi does sound surprisingly good.the elton track isn't too obtrusive but it's still the weakest song on "side one" imo
― the notes the loon doesn't play (ulysses), Friday, 11 November 2016 20:31 (seven years ago) link
i dunno i like how it gets kinda trippy when they looping "solid wall of sound" verbed out like that
second listen this is even better, quite a triumph

Among the album's pleasures is Andre dropping the motormouthed delivery that had turned him into the hip hop Steve Vai.
― The burrito of ennui (Alfred, Lord Sotosyn), Friday, 11 November 2016 20:32 (seven years ago) link
I love this, just what I needed.
― Josh in Chicago, Friday, 11 November 2016 20:33 (seven years ago) link
as is my penchant, i'm trying to listen to the first half several times before digging into the second half. would welcome current hot takes on if it maintains, drastically improves, declines...?

getting an album free from a friend is different from getting an album for (mostly) free from a company that doesn't pay artists
imo
― Οὖτις, Friday, 11 November 2016 20:58 (seven years ago) link
ie trading dubbed cassettes /= actively supporting a company that robs artists of royalties
but cool thx guys I will have to wait until I get paid next month and can (maybe) afford to buy a physical copy from an actual store/person
― Οὖτις, Friday, 11 November 2016 20:59 (seven years ago) link
Apple Music is free for the first three months fyi
― Evan R, Friday, 11 November 2016 21:01 (seven years ago) link
Apple, another company that doesn't pay me
― Οὖτις, Friday, 11 November 2016 21:04 (seven years ago) link
but cool glad we're having this argument yet again I'm sure we will all learn valuable lessons
if i had the mp3s i'd send em shakes
i'm actually not seeing any physical copies of this - cd or vinyl...does anyone know the plan for that?
― blonde redheads have more fun (upper mississippi sh@kedown), Friday, 11 November 2016 21:07 (seven years ago) link

I was in tears from the second I heard the opening snare and Tip's first verse.

this is crazy good. was going to wait till I made it through the whole album to post but then "Mobius" ends up being built around "Two Oldtimers" by Dieter Moebius & Conny Plank & thank you

so i was talking with a young woman (let's say 25) this afternoon and i said, "hey have you heard the new tribe yet?" and she didn't know what i meant so i said "have you heard the new tribe called quest?" and she said "i've heard OF them" and okay so THIS is what being old feels like
