A spot on the 1993 Lollapalooza Tour showed their influence with the alternative crowd — always a bedrock of A Tribe Called Quest's support — but the group kept it real on 1996's Beats, Rhymes and Life, a dedication to the streets and the hip-hop underground.

Part of the Native Tongue collective along with De La Soul and the Jungle Brothers, Tribe defined a left-of-center movement of positive, thoughtful hip hop amid the growing popularity of gangster rap in the early '90s.
The band's fifth release, The Love Movement, continued Tribe's minimalist approach to beats and rhymes, and marked the finale for one of hip-hop music's truly innovative groups.

They're not kidding: the bass is cranked up so loud you may blow out your speakers, and you're almost guaranteed to have trouble hearing the vocalists.
This was a response to the swarm of sampling lawsuits that took place in 1989 and 1990: the Tribe switched from the dense sample-heavy mix of their previous effort to one main sample or loop per tune, mostly relying on jazz bass (Ron Carter appears on the Q-Tip showcase "Verses From The Abstract").
