Legendary Hip Hop group A Tribe Called Quest will be celebrating their 25th anniversary with a reissue of their 1990 debut LP, People’s Instinctive Travels and the Paths of Rhythm. Set for a November 13 release via Sony Legacy, this will be the first in a series of reissues of the rest of their discography.
Bob Power remastered this reissue from the original tapes, and the whole package will include remixes from modern rappers (news on that still to come). Check out the announcement video above.
ATCQ members spoke about this project in a press release and said the following:
“I had this album in my head for years before I did it… Looking at it overall, to see the thoughts of a 16 year old gain any kind of acknowledgement makes me feel like I have arrived… But to see it in this incarnation … I’m humbled.”
– Q-Tip
“This album means a lot,” he said. “It was the beginning of our careers; the beginning of our imprint; the beginning of seeing life the way we saw it, and being able to put it down in words and music.”
– Ali Shaheed Muhammad
