A Tribe Called Quest

The only rap group with an IQ of over 100.

A Tribe Called Quest (ATCQ for short, but that's impossible to pronounce?!)
They can subtly blend laid back hip-hop beats with trumpets and a couple double basses. These guys top it off with intellegent, catchy lyrics that focus on more important things like the rap industry, the word nigger etc.

In the words of Phife Dawg: 'when was the last time you heard a funky diabetic?'
Guy #1- 'I really want to see A Tribe Called Quest live, but I'm scared my face will melt at the awesomeness, leaving me permanently hideous!'

Taylor Swift - 'Mmm, that happened to me.'

A Tribe Called Quest

Arguably the best and one of the greatest hip-hop groups in history that was formed in New York during the Golden Age of hip-hop. The group, which consisted of MCs Q-Tip, Phife Dawg, and DJ Ali Shaheed Muhammad, was well ahead of their time and used mixes of jazzand hip-hopin their music. They were a strong and vital part of the Native Tongues Posse. They are best known as pioneers of Alternative Hip-hop and have released an enormous amount of critically acclaimed singles such as the ever famous "Electric Relaxation", "Bonita Applebum", "Check the Rhime", and "Scenario". They are by far the greatest and freshest hip-hop group known.
"The jazz, the what? The jazz can move that
Cuz the Tribe originates that feelin' of pizzazz
It's the universal sound, best to brothers underground
In the one-six below, ya didn't have to go"

- Q-Tip's verse from "Jazz (We've got) of A Tribe Called Quest's second studio album "Low End Theory".

My So-Called Life

Show lasting one year-given an undeserved axe despite having had some of the most memorable and relateable characters.
Dared to be different unlike some of the Dawson's Creek fare airing at the time.
Fan: Hey, have you heard of My So-Called Life?
Person: ZOMG, that show is gay.
Fan: No really it's a good show.....Jared Leto was in it.
Person: Oh, he's so hot!
Fan: *facepalm*
