One of the oldest topics in Hip Hop is hustling. While often done to make more money, it is essentially the effort that is used to achieve specific goals. A Tribe Called Quest front man, Q-Tip, knows this very well, as his new single encourages the youth to ”have a feva for something.” Whereas a casual listener might think Tip is biting off an MC like Talib Kweli, longtime fans will know Q-Tip helped to inspire Kweli as well as many of today’s influential MCs. Consequently, Feva might once again inspire rappers (of the conscious variety) to continue the grind. Further inspiration is set to come during Black History Month; The Renaissance is scheduled to hit stores in February.
I think the early heads need to listen to it again too...In my opinion, this track is really HOT! I think it is about time that Q-Tip is coming back. I really like the sick production also done by Q-tip! Time for another RUN! Really smooth track...hopefully the album is as hot as this!
I didn't realize how much I miss Tip in the game until I heard this, now if you'll excuse me I'm going to go listen to Low End Theory and try to remember the good ol'days.
Bonita Applebum you gotta put me on!
I concur with DJ Z, what a disrespect to compare Q-tip to Kat Williams, but it is your opinion!
but if your were a teenager in the 90's you would no better I guess?
Kat Williams is funny Pimpin! but there is no comparison.
back to the song, its okay not his best, I hope he get a real banger going I think he needs to call up Fife Dog!
Get the tribe back together man, for one track atleast!!!
Don't write off us young heads. I respect this so much. Hot joint. Been a Q-Tip fan since 98...(I had to catch up on all the music I messed before that..lol) This is a banger
