DDOSBS#6 - Q-Tip

As a glimpse of Q-Tip’s solo career indicates, the New York rapper and 'A Tribe Called Quest' member has been on a desperate search to find his balance on the fence that separates commercial hiphop-corruption from subterraneal over-abstraction.

After his “pop-sellout” labeled 'Amplified' and his too-leftfield-to-be-released follow-up 'Kamaal the Abstract', Q-Tip seems to have hit a homerun with his third solo product 'The Renaissance'.

In "Manwomanboogie", Q has enough funky basslines, cross-era musical referances and mellow one-liners to go around.
