I'm really growing to have the conclusion that Quest is my favorite hip hop group of all time. The balance of Q-Tip and Phife Dog are perfect. Q-Tip is all low and a little quiet and punctual with his lyrics while Phife is all over the place and high and his energy is awesome. My favorite goes to Phife but I can safely say that I think that neither could succeed without each other. Ya Q-Tip had some success in a solo way but when they were in the Tribe is when they were best. Also Ali Shaheed Muhammad made some classic lines on their albums. I would say Jarobi White was good but he never really stood out and was only there for a short time. He goes along with De La Soul and Busta Rhymes who were all greatly associated with the Tribe. But its safe to say Tip and Phife stood out among them all.
Now with The Low End Theory, I like this album a lot but I don't think it's their best. Their best is either Midnight Marauders or Beats, Rhymes, and Life. Hopefully we will be able to listen to those before the end of the school year. But happy we got to Tribe
