1. A Tribe Called Quest & Consequence – WBAI “Underground Railroad” Freestyle, circa 1996 (AUDIO).

    Jay Smooth – radio host, cultural commentator and all-around voice of reason – reminded everyone that his long-running “Underground Railroad” program on NYC’s WBAI has enjoyed more than its share of great moments when he referred us to this mid-’90s appearance by A Tribe Called Quest. Joined on the mic by Consequence (and apparently a young Jay Dee rolling with the crew), Q-Tip and Phife flow off the dome for almost 10-minutes. “If only I had a video camera in the 90s!” Jay laments. Oh well, this will just have to do then.

      Really cool to hear. The beat playing kinda sucks and the DJ had it pitched up too high. Tribe never went that high in the BPM range on their albums. . .keeping up with it they sound kinda frantic. Cool regardless, thanks for posting
