Tribe Called Quest, A - 8 Million Stories Lyrics

...She wasn't even alla that, just anutha hooker, simply turned that ass away quick like Chuckii Booker!!!

Damn Phife, smooth as hell over a sick beat

This ones for Tiffy

A tribe called quest is spark master tape. Spread tue word. #SWOUP

Went to Carvel to get a milkshake
This honey ripped me off for all my loot cakes
The car, oh yeah, there's money in my jacket
Somebody broke into my ride and cold macked it
Yo Tip I tell you man the Devil's tryin' it
But I'm goin' to stay strong cause I ain't buyin' it
Tonight I'm taking Sherry out, I don't have jack to wear
You know I gots to look dipped in the fresh new gear
Cool I found something so I ironed it
I then got caught up on the phone, oh shit, I'm frying it
Will someone tell me what did I do to deserve this?
I think I'll, pull out my suit for Sunday service
My little brother wants Barney, cool, I'm gettin' it
Took him down to Kay-Bee, they ain't sellin' it
Here we go with the crying, yo he's throwing fits
My blood pressure's blowing up, I can't take the shit
Finally got what he wanted, now he's good to go
Again the ride was smashed, where's my radio?
One time, the car was in the shop I had to borrow, see
They had no mercy on the car, Lyor will kill me
Where the hell can Nicki be? I'm gonna smack her up
I got the tickets for the Knicks and she cold stood me up
I need to hit a honey off, Jarobi pass the phone
Pulled out my book of hoes, oh yo, Sheila's home
Steady smiling like a mother yo I'm read' to bone
Went down on hon, she's in the red zone
Stressed out more than anyone could ever be
Forever tryin' to clear the samples for my new LP
Everybody knows I go to Georgia often
Got on the flight and I ended up in Boston
With all these trials and tribulations, yo, I've been affected
And to top it off, Starks got ejected
Problems, problems, problems
Woe is me, I'm having problems, problems, problems
Just last week my girl was stressin' me
Now her best friend be undressing me
Well I was loving her by the moon ray
Now I'm tricking on her like Kinte' (c'mon)
Bought a bag of izm from the smoke shop
Walking towards the car, here come the damn cops
Now I'm station bound for the Thai sticks
I bought it for my man, I don't believe this shit
Coach sat me down from the ball team
Cause I was breaking niggas on the inseams
Some niggas 'cross town was trying to stick me
All I had was shorts, a dollar fifty
Picked up this girl in the hooptie
Just because I rhyme she tried to soup me
Pay for this, pay for that, loot for nails and hair
Who the hell you think I am, Mr. Belvedere?
Go and get a bloody job, then can we look cute
Even if you give me boots, you'll never see my loot
She wasn't even all of that, just another hooker
So I turned that ass away, quick like Chuckii Booker
Sometimes you gotta put the hoes in their friggin' place
Just move from in front me with your batty face!
Problems, problems, problems
Lord knows I'm havin' problems, problems, problems
Jesus Christ, I'm havin' problems, problems, problems
Pray for me, I'm havin' problems, problems, problems
Yeah
Yeah
Just lay down your burdens by the riverside
Ha, and you'll be alright, know what I'm sayin'?
Love and peace from Phife for '93, know what I'm sayin'?
Tribe Called Quest, Shaheed and Tip

Respect to Q Tip, legendary as fuck. But Phife on this. WOW. This bassline. This is my favorite Tribe song for sure.

When I was still back home in philly, before the army I would play this sit back in my project Chevy prizm car that I was working on just thinking to myself. Finally got accepted into the military I was 19, then I’m 22 now and I couldn’t be happier then ever. Had charges on charges preventing me from joining. So now I come back to this song all the time to just kick back and think about the good and bad in between those times, and not knowing where I was going. Still don’t know where I’m going, but I’m going.

This beat sounds like a background song of an underwater level at Super Mario 64

Rich The Kid Splashin brought me here...

Still remember the day I got this album in the 5th grade.. anybody else used to ask their parents for albums for making the honor roll?

RIP Phife Dog! I brought this CD 4 times. Jazz rap... The best!

MO MORE PROBLEMS RIP PHIFE DAWG

And to top it off Stark got rejected....just move from mi with yuh batty face

So lucky I had the chance to see Quest live in support of this album,back in the day.
Such a brilliant Phife solo about perseverance.
Indeed,Tribe's music celebrated life in a world where corporations turned hip hop into a cult of hate and death.
RIP.

If you've seen the documentary about Tribe, the opening scene where they're performing at Rock The Bells in 2008, is the essence of hip-hop, when Jarobi and Phife are going back and forth on the mic in slow mo and the crowd is rockin with them....gives me chills! They're dripping sweat, putting everything into what they're doing....thanks for the music and the memories Phife....we love you.

Whats the documentary called?

Louis Biscoe...."Beats, Rhymes and Life: The travels of A Tribe called quest." You should check it out, it's really good.
