Description

They were the voices of a movement and moment for rap in the 1990s. And it all played out on late night TV. This week on Tonight's Musical Guest, Today, we're talking A TRIBE CALLED QUEST!

And speaking of guests, the show is bringing on its first! Author, journalist, and hip-hop historian Dart Adams join the guys this week to dig deep on the music, collaborators, and performances of Tribe. Dart walks us through his own scene experience in Boston in the late 80s before examining the tragic Shakespearean love story of Q-Tip and Phife Dawg. Along the way, they discuss Busta Rhyme's star turn on Arsenio Hall, the impact of Marky Mark and the Funky Bunch on the local Boston hip-hop scene, and how Kenny G first started off on the Black music charts.
