We'll never get another reunion ;-;
It'll be a fucking crime if this doesn't get stickied.

RIP
Dude whaaaat

i'm gonna throw on midnight marauders god fucking dammit fuck
STICKY THIS MODS ITS BETTER THAN ANOTHER CHVRCHES THREAD
Fuck me I'm about to go on a ATCQ binge.
It's been a while anyway.
>>63511788
Nothing gets stickied unless it's hitting bump limit every 10 seconds.
WHAT NO
NOT PHIFE
I was thinking the other day if he was dead or not, and I was happy to see he was still alive. Nos he's fucking dead, what the fuck. RIP
>let me hit it from the back girl i wont catch a hernia
RIP he got a hernia
His verse on this was GOAT

You guys don't really know what stickies are for, do you?
do you think he ever ended up having a cavity?
2016 claims another one. This is a brutal year.
>>63511859
yeah cool how about give his death 15 mins before you make jokes
First Bowie, now this. What the fuck
>>63511706
Are you serious? Holy shit.
I don't wanna wish death on another man but... I wish Tyga was dead instead of Phife and Sean Price
Oh no now who'll rap about bitches and money??? Who fucking cares.
>>63511878
what
He was my favorite part of Tribe :-(
>>63511878
same here bro.
>>63511760
Maurice White of Earth, Wind and Fire didn't get a sticky when he died.
>>63511891
Same :(
>>63511891
me too
>>63511887
>never listened to A Tribe Called Quest
Underage faggot detected. Show some respect.
He's kickin' it in heaven now for real
>>63511893
He def shoulda. There is a pretty skewed sense of what is important on this board
>>63511905
>DRINK A LOT OF SODA SO THEY CALL ME DR PEPPER
Wow, so deep.
>>63511869
bud, it was pretty lighthearted.

RIP, what a hero
>>63511913
Nice cherry picking lyrics faggot.
>>63511915
world got me frustrated bro. sorry
>>63511930
Go make a thread about how Bowie posts should have a trigger warning.
>>63511936
You're right, I'm obviously avoiding masterful verses like >>63511930
In honor of Phife's death, we should all vote for Ted Cruz to repeal gay marriage. It's what he would've wanted.
Sorry man, you look groovy.
ATCQ wouldn't be the same without him. RIP
>>63511930
Oh no, a guy has a viewpoint that reflects the era he grew up in
>>63511970
There is no ATCQ anymore.
microphone check 1, 2 what is this? ):
>>63511913
>wow, i'm 15
>>63511976
>that reflects the era he grew up
dude was born in 1970
Why is 2016 so sad bros?
What's with the hate on Phife? LET is the only good hip hop album ever, I'd expect you guys to like it.
>>63511996
but where
>>63511996
Yeah thats my point. it's really only in the last 5 years everyone has come around to gay rights etc. You are obviously under 18 and shouldn't be on this board
fuck.
RIP Diggy
>>63512019
everyone over the age of 40 is homophobic?
nooooooo
>>63512031
people are still homophobic in the hood, my man
>>63512007
>there are people on planet earth that believe that low end theory is better than midnight marauders
>>63512031
Yeah man more or less. I think the fear of being called homophobic scares people from talking about it more than anything. Once that generation is dead, homophobia will probably die with it
Damn... what a fucking shame.

(You)
go fuck yourself. Respect for the dead is a basic fucking emotion that everyone should have. You aren't edgy, you aren't funny. Seriously, fuck off
>>63512056
You'd think but nah
Definitely gonna smoke a blunt and listen to some tribe records right now. Damn this is sad.

wasn't tupac gay
>>63511976
Oh, so his environment makes his homophobia excusable? Fuck off.
>>63512159
Man there are people out there in the mainstream calling for blanket bombing of the middle east and you are here 15 mins after a dude died, saying he was homophobic? Who the fuck cares?

>>63512182
>replying
"You on point Phife?" :(
>>63512202
Did the guy ever attack a homo? Did he ever do anything than have an opinion that is different to yours? He was a talented lyricist and pioneer of hip hop, all i'm saying is have some perspective. Half the world is homophobic, what are you gonna do
>>63512241
>being this edgy and cool
How do you do it?
>>63512241
Back to /pol/ edgelord
>>63512241
let's all remember that Georgie Porgie was written literally 25 years ago. who knows, he may have changed. all i know is he made a lot of great music and was important to a lot of people including me. be respectful jesus
>>63512241
spotted the indie rockist
>>63512149
he was a fuckin POOF
>>63512232
>he never physically assaulted a homosexual, so it's ok
>other ppl are homophobic, so it's ok
I grew up gay and bi (noticeably effeminate) in Inglewood in the late '80s. People like him made my life that much harder. Fuck you.
RIP in Peace
>>63512282
I'm sorry bro, i really am, but this time, it's not about you
>can i kick the bucket? yes you can
>buzz off on the deathbed now you got la z boy

>>63511706
NOOOOOOO! I just heard him giving an interview on NPR not but a few weeks ago! He was supposed to be working on some new shit. :(
>>63512282
No one wants to read your blogshit
>>63512282
Hahahahahahaha sorry the world isn't the tumblr hugbox you expected it to be homo
>>63512293
Just don't try to make excuses for homophobia is all I'm saying. Peace
Wow
This is bad
Jk he hated the lgbtq community
I heard Phife didn't believe in the gender wage gap. What a sick misogynist
>>63511957
stop posting plz
>>63512328
who really cares?
>>63511893
You fucking kidding me?
>>63512282
Everyone in the world has done something reprehensible in their life. Phife Dawg's entire life just ended, not just the part where he wrote anti-gay lyrics. Stfu
>>63512361
fucking millenials man
>>63512282
Fuck off faggot
>>63512375
The lgbt community is a fucking blight upon western culture at the moment.
I'll give him a pass.
>>63512282
So we should all just disregard the effect he had on hip-hop and millions of people all over the globe through his music? I'm sorry his anti-gay sentiments didn't vibe with you because of your homosexuality, but seriously, you're being just as bad as the people who hate on gays right now.
It's not about you bud. This is about Phife Dawg. Go cry in a corner elsewhere. Just be gay and accept that some people aren't accepting of it. And why should they be? They're free to be their own person so long as they're not hurting anyone else.
Thats sad. I always liked his verses. He was talented and smooth. Too bad

why is this not stickied?
I was thinking about putting on Midnight Marauders earlier today, and now this happens. Fuck this year man.
>>63512649
same its crazy i was just thinking about that album
the point of stickying is to keep a million threads about the same thing from being posted
>>63511831
You killed him.
>>63512660
Not a single person has made another thread about it. /mu/ is slow as fuck right now. We don't need a sticky everytime someone dies.

Faggots are scum and I was born in 1989. No ones accepting shit.

So that makes him a horrible person. Yeah fuck that guy for having different viewpoints!
Who?
RIP the legend, Phife
RIP, ive only gotten into hip hop recently but this and Sean Price are the only two deaths from famous people that have really affected me damn. Thanks for the positive music Phife
>>63512054
But Low End Theory is better than midnight marauders anon...Excursions, Butter, Buggin' Out, Vibes n Stuff, Scenario, all amazing songs. I feel like Midnight Marauders was alright but pretty forgettable.
>>63512328
I too dislike the LGBTQ community, I have nothing against the GLB people though
>>63512899
but Steve Biko, Award Tour, Sucka Nigga, Midnight, Electric Relaxation, Lyrics To Go, God Lives Through?
>>63512915
Midnight Marauders just doesn't do it for me like Low End Theory, to each their own.

The other side has never mortified my mortal mind
The borderline between insanity is father time
I fall behind my skeleton, they tell me that I'm blind
I know that I'm intelligence, my confidence just died
Carpe diem, seize the day, I can't compromise
A tape worm couldn't cure this gluttonous appetite
A couple trinkets, they seein me as I pacify
But couldn't fathom the meaning of seein' sacrifice
I'm passin' lives on a daily, maybe I'm losing faith
Genocism and capitalism just made me hate
Correctionals and these private prisons gave me a date
Professional dream killers reason why I'm awake
I'm sleep walkin', I'm street stalkin', I'm outta place
Reinforcing this heat barking, these are the brakes
Before I blink do I see me before them pearly gates?
Or this is just a mirage or a facade
Wait

>>63513178
ALL THE TIME TIP
I can honestly say ACTQ was the first hiphpo act to get me into the genre, despite the fact I grew up as a black kid who was surrounded by g-unit and dipset.
"Bust off on your couch, now you got Seaman's Furniture" Only celebrity death that has bummed me out since Richard Wright.
>>63511706
rippe Phife
>>63513201
that's the beauty of their legacy... one definition of a great artist to me is that ability to pull you in with sounds you've never loved before

Fuck, I'd rather have Q-Tip pass than Phife.
damn this fucking sucks
RIP
>>63513334
Phife is the superior lyricist but Q-Tip's skill as a producer has made him far more relevant or important to hip-hop.
Fucking sticky mods
>>63513313
This is correct
>>63513359
there's only one thread about it with only 161 posts, there's no need desu
>>63513334
Phife was better MC but q-tip just had that certain something that made everyone love him
:( r.i.p
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=07s3iO6tw3g
>>63513364
RIP threads are less about the pragmatism and use of the sticky function but more of a form of acknowledgement of the said musician artistry.
Lurk moar.

Whats the list so far?
David Bowie
Lemmy
Keith Emerson
George Martin
Maurice White (Earth Wind & Fire)
Drummer from Dead Moon
That rapper guy Bankroll Money or whatever
Phife
2016 ain't playing
>angry "lgbt" """"""people"""""""
>>63513718
Lemmy was 2015.
>>63513767
I feel like he kinda kicked it off tho.
FFFFFFFUCK
>>63513718
Paul Kantner and Glen Frey
The disrespect in here is fucking insane. Rip Phife. If this doesn't get sticky than the mods are confirmed for racists.
Yo guys I'm super fucking sorry that a rapper said some wild shit about gays in the late 80s but yo let me tell you about "separating the art from the artist". Not everybody can be a fucking trailblazer. Live with it.
>>63513794
Still 2015, although if we're talking about who was the first in this recent rash it was really Scott Weiland.
>>63513824
>If this doesn't get sticky than the mods are confirmed for racists.
As much as I love tribe, there have been like a dozen deaths this year of more important people that never got stickied.
>>63511893
Message: A lot of this board doesn't even like black people, let alone appreciate hip hop.
If this doesn't get stickied, I'm considering leaving this board, that's wild disrespect.
Ugh, that "Dear Dilla" video is eerie now.
>>63513824
>one thread
>sticky
lol
>>63512056
This is pretty myopic. Homophobia is alive and well.
>>63513848
The sun isn't up in the US, so there's that. Just wait.
Also, welcome to mu! A sticky on this board is a token of respect.
If Lemmy gets a fucking sticky, the Phife sure should. Nobody on this board knew anything but fucking Ace of Spades anyway, and they knew it from Tony Hawk.
>>63513870
I don't think lemmy got a sticky out of respect, it was more cause of the "hell be fine" thing cause that was getting an obscene amount of replies. Pretty sure there are more people on this board who listen to tribe than motorhead
>>63513894
So Lemmy got a sticky because of a fucking hot new meme?
Fuck this board
>>63513870
>A sticky on this board is a token of respect.
No it isn't. A sticky is made so a hundred threads about the same topic aren't taking up the whole board at once. It's about containment, not respect. It also happened when KW released TLOP.
>>63513902
Plus Lemmy was already more well known as a character/celebrity more than a muso anyway... all the mythology surrounding his substance abuse etc
>>63511878
>>63513718
People die all the time ffs
bump 4 phife

God dammit...
So young.
Yeah, this one's pretty rough...

this is the first time i've shed a tear in years
god damn i'd forgotten what grief felt like

forever and always the funky diabetic
ugh I don't think Q Tip is the best or nicest guy, but he's been hit pretty hard by the death of Bowie and Maurice white- this will actually crush him
>>63512311
Fuck off, mans a legend and it was a fucking rejected song
>>63512311
of course there is no excuse you fucking prick, this isn't about lgbt rights, this about another human being losing his life
don't be a cunt
>>63511930
wow I hope when I die this is the worst thing I've said
I mean this is beyond mild, and considering these guys were all about 5 Percenter shit what did you expect
>>63512282
>I grew up gay and bi (noticeably effeminate)
ok, so you refused to compromise your identity and "people like him" (not him btw, which a ridiculous thing to say) did the same- look where you've ended up. It's a moot point.
"being gay is gross to me, it's not my thing"
HATEMONGER HATEMONGER REEEEEEE
>>63514365
Can we stop this shit and just mourn now?
Damn and I just got off a ATCQ binge. I guess I'll have to get on another one just out of respect for the guy. RIP.
>>63514376
probably not
This sucks. This sucks hard.
>>63514283
45 isnt old
do you remember when you first heard tribe, /mu/?
i never had a tony hawk game, so this had to do. award tour was featured as part of the soundtrack. beautiful, peaceful memories playing this with my cousin after school days and drinking liquor stolen from his dad's closet
Check the Rhime convinced my younger, pleb-as-shit Metalfag self that Hip Hop could be good. RIP. Too young.
Wtf is with all these musicians dropping like flies lately?
is it meme magic?
>>63514463
don't you dare debase this thread with posts like this
>>63514446
My parents were big fans, I remember hearing Can I Kick It and Electric Relaxation all the time as a kid. I've got their copy of Midnight Marauders in my record collection.
>>63514446
mixtape my best friend made in 6th grade for a spring break trip from virginia to the beach in jersey had Oh My God and Check the Rhime- literally the most patrician mix of all time, still influences my music taste today
RIP Phife, this is so not cool at all

Didn't have Dave Mirra Bmx on PS2 Buggin' Out in it's soundtrack? But yeah, your post made me remember episodes I thought long lost
who's that? BROOOOOOOOOOWN
holy shit il be bummed when the guys from the pharcyde die
>>63514615
I saw the video for el segundo too, when I was like 9, but on Nickelodeon of all places.
Man, I'm just up thinking of all the bus rides, parties, smoke sessions, dates, and other times where Tribe's music was in my life. I even got to see them in 06 with my best friend.
This hurts ;_;
Fuck man, tribe got me out of my wrong generation phase and introduced me to a whole genre or music i deeply cherish today.
R.i.p man thanks for the music.
>when's the last time you heard a funky diabetic
Was bumping Midnight Marauders just last night. ;__;
