Phife Dawg of the legendary and hugely influential hip hop group A Tribe Called Quest passed away this morning.

Whether you like hip hop or not, you have to respect the impact that A Tribe Called Quest had on music. They were a big part of teens and twenties and will always remind me of good times.

    First I heard of them was a reference in an Eminem song. Then listened to them. R.I.P. Much too young

    People's Instinctive Travels And The Paths Of Rhythm, Low End Theory, and Midnight Marauders are all hip hop classics.
