A Tribe Called Quest- Ham ‘n’ Eggs
Enjoy this sumptuous track right in time for holiday gluttony! This one evokes the immortal words of Z-trip, “You’re taking this shit too serious. It’s hip-hop man, it’s fuckin’ fun.” Lucky for us, Tribe took Z’s advice with this playful ditty.
Don’t forget your breakfast of champions.

A Tribe Called Quest- Can I Kick It?
Confession time: this song is the reason we were introduced to Lou Reed. Is that shameful or a modern way of discovering the most quintessential music? At least Tribe still fits into the classic shelf of our i-tunes library. This song truly initiated the word “kick” into our vocabulary. We kick it wearing kicks all the time now, but more importantly, this track most certainly paved the way for Obama’s key slogan with a slight alteration from 2nd to 1st person plural…can I kick it?
YES YOU CAN.
