De La Soul, Tribe & Jungle Bros Changed Hip Hop

The Native Tongues represent an expansion within hip hop - a new musical sub-genre with a new focus. It’s an incredibly influential period of music history. It's also some of best music ever made.

ADDITIONAL NOTES
At 1:05 - "Nixon's War on Drugs" - this is larger than just one President, as the "War on Drugs" was started in 1971 with Nixon (Controlled Substances Act, creating the DEA) but was expanded by Reagan (zero tolerance policies and increases penalties, resulting in an increase of non-violent drug offenders (predominantly Black Men) behind bars). This is a very large issue that spans decades and we're still seeing the results of today. While Reagan expanded the War on Drugs and was President in 1988 when Straight Outta Compton was released, the War on Drugs is larger than just him, so I chose the wording of "Nixon's War on Drugs"
At 10:19 - I misspoke - instead of Pharrell, I mean Kanye, who produced John Legend's "Get Lifted"

Near 48 and pale as can be, and the movement was still super important and major to me. Music was pretty much background the adults put on until i heard the fat boys and felt like i finally heard something happening for my generation, and when i heard pot holes in my lawn it light my brain again in much the same way. Loved de la soul, and tribe called quest, as well as what i heard from jungle brothers on yo mtv and bet, but unfortunately never did get their albums, but have near every busta rhymes album who was also up outta that scene. The whole scene changed music fashion and philosophy of life. I've never cared about jewelry, and being a white kid i don't know that i would've bought one of the africa patch necklaces, but my best friend bought me one, and i wish i still had it. At the time the africa patches, amongst other things, helped change the fashion away from materialism in a way i still identify with, as i still rock kangols but never really would've been a big gold rope chain guy, and as a young white kid having an africa patch from best friend felt like another level of approval from him, despite my skin tone, and in a certain youthful way signaled a sense of belonging to the hip hop culture and that it was our culture, when i was mostly hanging around black friends, and that even though it was mainly black culture, it still didn't have to be a straight up division by race but more by our youth and view of the world at large, of what we were into and what we cared about, just as much as it signaled my virtues were more aligned with people who cared about equality and freedom, and most certainly was not aligned with symbols of oppression, like idk confederate flags or something. Their style and ethos has stayed with me and was certainly why i gravitated to outkast as well and though a huge biggie fan as well was majorly disappointed with how many clones came after bringing so much of it back to a lot of materialism, at a time when hip hop reached real mainstream acceptance, and sorta became pop. Threw me of to investigate other musical areas i had missed for a long time till i came back around to find a ton of underground under the radar hip hop that had been happening that still was pushing the boundaries of art music and thought

I was in heavy a really heavy funk rabbit hole for a few years, mostly James Brown, P-Funk, Bootsy, EWF, Brothers Johnson, etc. I was amazed at how much of a novelty society and pop culture painted that genre as being. Granted, they were wild like everyone else in the 70’s, Parliament Funkadelic should be held to as high of a regard as any other famous group then. Their musical movement reminds me so much of what you have covered about the Soulquarians and Native Tongues and how they were the next steps after them, and unfortunately overlooked by many people but still heavily influential.

You can't forget Tribe's last album We Got It From Here. Jarobi is all over that. He also did an album with Dres from Black Sheep a few years ago. They called themselves Evitan, Native spelled backwards.

@oRuTRa45 Жыл бұрын

Hearing Jarobi on that opening track to We Got It From Here ("Space Program") was so gratifying. It made up for years of wanting him to flow on a Tribe track (especially after I heard rumors years back that he originally had a verse on "Scenario"). That and hearing Phife posthumously made listening to that album made it such an emotional, bittersweet experience. I knew about the Evitan project with Dres around the time it came out, but I didn't get a chance to get into it. Not at all for lack of interest though, my mind and heart were just elsewhere.

I'm just a short curvy white chick who stumbled into hip hop love in the late 80s/early 90s, helped by the Beastie Boys in 1986 with 'License To Ill', and their tour with Run DMC in summer 1987 (I still have the tshirt I bought at the show). I grew up in a town with almost no black folks. But I was lucky in that I had MTV to bring me music that I couldn't find in my classic rock centric world, plus I worked at a music distributor and was exposed to more than just white people rock. I'm in my mid-50s now, and realizing how important hip hop was to me, even tho' it was on the edge of my musical life. Queen Latifah's "Ladies First" has stuck with me since I first heard/saw it on MTV; same with De La Soul's "Me Myself & I". As I get older, I'm finding that delving into the roots of music that's inspired me is the most important thing when it comes to what I listen to and what I purchase. That means it ranges from Fleetwood Mac to Jungle Brothers to Pat Benatar to Grandmaster Flash to Beastie Boys after 'License to Ill'. Thank you for this video; I'm looking forward to working my way through the rest of your stuff.

The 90s was the best era of hip hop because of the whole native tongue lineage. The fact that they were making a lot of the music because they wanted to and not because they were expecting each track to make them rich is what gave it soul. After 2001 the industry got its claws in hip hop and now mostly turns out fast food hip hop with no nutritional value for your mind.

So, basically, Native Tongues brought me into hip hop. In AZ in high school everyone loved NWA, and I wasn't feeling it because I saw them fulfilling white audience expectations. Native Tongues felt encouraging for me to be me (as Pharrell said in other words). Loved all of those albums and De La is still my fave hip hop group. It *kills* me that younger people don't know anything about them. Thanks for this one. It's great as usual.

Yours was a random suggestion by the KZfaq algorithm and I'm glad I hung around cos this was great! Back in the day I saw the JBs, Stet and De La live, but I never got to see ATCQ. Q-Tip gets mentioned so frequently in your analysis that you gotta wonder if he was the glue that held the NT together. Someone else commented on the JBs being underrated and how their first two albums were masterpieces. I could not agree more. By the time they came out I'd been into hip hop for years already (since Kurtis Blow, who I saw live too), but they were truly a breath of fresh air. Meanwhile, Mos Def is in my top three list of greatest rappers of all time. Sorry for the long post, your video got me psyched! From a proper old school hip hop head.

I love so many of these artists, and I couldn't have told you exactly why, until now. This is what tied them all together. That's F*****G crazy!

Man, Chuck and Flav, did more than any other act, to make hip hop socially conscious from a Militant point of view. I did get into the Natives tongues, beats and all, but when is PE gonna get a damn bio movie!

As a 50 odd year old Englishman bought the lp's back in the day. The cd's are gettting easier to get hold of these days. In march these tracks will reach many more and hopfully a younger audiance if they stream.
