Today I'm breaing down "Midnight Marauders" by A Tribe Called Quest - recreating some of the legendary beats from the original samples, talking with mixer and engineer Bob Power on the creation of this album, and seeing 4 distinct ways that this album is monumental for hip hop and music history in general. We hope that you will find this video precise, bass heavy, and just right.

I saw them live in Chicago at the Riv when this album dropped. Only Shaheed on stage then those Steve Biko horns come on and Phife enters stage left with the handheld wireless mic... flips it in his hand and catches it right side up in perfect time to begin his verse when the beat drops dead center stage., "YO! Microphone check 1 2 what is this?" pure brilliance. this is my fav album of all time.

Because The Low End Theory was absolutely PERFECT. The samples were incredible... the beats were jazzy... Phife emerged as a serious lyricist and won "Most Improved MC" status... Busta Rhymes emerged as a superstar with his jaw-dropping cameo.... the entire album is unskippable and is diverse in mood and subject matter. It's a desert island album. It transcends hip hop. It's one of the best albums of the '90s in any genre. Low End Theory and Nevermind by Nirvana are probably the 2 best albums that year in 1991.

100% agree. Like you said Low End is maybe on more critics lists but Midnight Marauders was just perfect to me. People's Instinctive... was full of fun, creativity and youthful exuberance. Low End was like, "boom, this is our sound." But still kind of raw and unpolished. Marauders was tight, focused and polished. This is a beginning to end album. No track lacks through the whole entirety. After listening to this I wanted to be from Linden Blvd. Everyone knows Award Tour and Electric Relaxation (maybe the best hip hop song ever imo) but Clap Your Hands, Sucka..., Lyrics to Go and We Can get Down still are etched into my memory, probably for eternity. There aren't many albums I can still listen to from Track 1 to the end after 30 years and countless listens, but this will be one of those, probably forever. I will never tire of this album. If hip hop had an equivalent to the Beatles it would be Tribe.

Midnight Marauders is my favorite ATCQ album. This is Tribe's most mature, and best sonically album. The music production was so fresh and high quality. There was a mystique of that album that made it sound so polished. I never skipped a song on this album. The Album cover is just genius! Alongside 36 Chambers, November 9th, 1993 concludes the final chapter of the Golden era of hip-hop and ushered in the next chapter of a new wave of Hip Hop dominance in commercialism and mainstream.

Bob Power! Huge get! Questlove talks about him like he was the secret weapon of soulquarians, just a legendary producer, his fingerprints are on hundreds of the best tracks of the 90s and 2000s. And huge shout to whoever did the voiceover, she nailed it! 👏

I still bug out at the fact I was a high school freshman when Marauders and Enter dropped. What a time to be alive. The first time I heard "Lyrics To Go" I thought that high note was a synthesizer. Then I heard "Inside My Love" ... 🤯 That started me down the rabbit hole of Minnie's music and I subsequently discovered Tribe made two separate classics from the same album. Interestingly enough, Tip uses the word "sheen" to describe Marauders because it definitely was more "polished" than Low End. It was like Tribe was just scratching the surface of what was to come.

Great thoughts. It was a perfect bridge from LET to BR&L. My personal preference is Low End Theory but Marauders is such a perfect start to finish listening experience. It's more of a comprehensive album. BR&L is where I started losing interest. It was partly the "polish" (as you say) of that era. It was partly being resistant to Consequence who I didn't vibe with. And my interests started branching out from Hip hop into other areas. Hat tip on the Ripperton sample note. I need to explore more of her stuff. -Class of '95

Even though Tribe were too low on the totem pole on that tour (rock artists were always at the top at Lollapalooza; wtf Smashing Pumpkins headlining, really?), it was still a good show. P Funk, Pharcyde (on 2nd stage!), Beastie Boys & Breeders were all amazing as well. Music industry never knows what it’s got til it’s gone. The fans know. The industry, not so much. PS.

Man I love your channel! It’s great how you break down the production on these classic albums! I’d love if you did a video on souls of mischiefs 93 til infinity. Keep up the amazing work!

One of my favorite albums of all-time of any genre. It helped shape my teenage years. I love Low End Theory equally but for different reasons.
