	Beats, Rhymes and Life - A Tribe Called Quest - Song Listings
		With their fourth album Beats, Rhymes and Life, A Tribe Called Quest manages to be one of the few hip-hop acts to successfully age by pushing both their music and their lyrics into new directions.
		Stylistically, the record is closest to its immediate predecessor, Midnight Marauders, in the sense that the group's jazz-rap fusion are downplayed and the beat stays surprisingly hard throughout the album.
		What distinguishes Beats, Rhymes and Life from Marauders is a deeper sense not only of eclectism, but of spirituality and maturity.

	Hiplogs: Beats, Rhymes & Life
		I learned long ago that a man's life should be measured not by what happened to him along the path of his life, but by the decisions he made.
		My life is going great, thanks in no small part to the people who have surrounded me. Albita has been wonderful to us, helping out with things, giving Natalie and I a place to enjoy our summer together, and just supporting us the way she has.
		My life is the canvas they painted, and whether or not anyone else considers it a masterpiece, it is a piece I am happy and proud of.

		I felt like I was plugged into the matrix, except that instead of being able to live some fantasy life in the programmed architecture of an artificical womb, I was being attacked internally by some nefarious parasite.
		This cancer will not beat me, not will the chemo or radiation lessen who I am or what I will be.
		My life is fuller now, a veritable tree sagging heavily with ripe fruit limned with the fluorescense of maturity, and yet I am in my gazebo at 5:18 in the morning, lonelier than a vagrant sleeping away the night in an shadowed doorstep.

	The newsletter for the Association for Learning Technology: Hip hop - beats, rhymes and life
		The ‘Hip Hop — Beats, Rhymes and Life’ course came about partly through the work of the blended learning team at the Sheffield College, along with close collaborative work with a performance group of students from the United States.
		The course was designed in a similar way to a traditional outreach program, and aimed to attract learners who may have traditionally rejected formal education by giving them the opportunity to create their own music and explore a culture important to them: ‘Hip Hop’.
		The majority of the work takes place on computers, as learners construct their own beats and rhymes while going through the process of producing and recording their sounds.

		Released in 1996, on Jive Records, "Beats..." had a new vibe that many Tribe listeners weren't used to.
		It was a hot, sweaty day when I walked into the local mom and pop record store to ask for the new Tribe album.
		The punk rocker cat at the counter pulled a brand new CD straight out of a box on the floor, filled with "Beats..." CDs with the special 3-D cover.

	Rolling Stone : Faith Evans: Beats, Rhymes And Life : Music Reviews
		Beats, Rhymes and Life is laced with a thread of allegory that runs through one song and is picked up in the next.
		For example, the chorus of "Motivators" ("We be the No. 1 motivators/Ghetto mentality and innovators") is echoed in "The Hop" ("Just a ghetto child trying to live a straight and narrow/Hopin' that my shit will pierce your dome like an arrow").
		Their rhymes are simple, not simple-minded, a distinction not many other bands can make.

		Tribe's fourth album, Beats, Rhymes, and Life, should be the awkward one, the album on which the group, growing up, falters a little as it figures out what it's going to do next.
		Upon first hearing one of the tribe's tracks on the internet, i had to buy one of their albums, just to see if this brilliant track was just a one-off or a regular trademark of the musically-inclined trio.

		My whole reason for rhyme is just to shed new light on a tired genre, and offer the listener a break from the traditional themes that have been played out for years.
		Jon The Baptist and Cost (his first rhyme partners) were on my step and we all decided to write a verse, just for the heck of it.ï¿½ And so, the rest, as they say, is history.
		And anyone who spends his days teaching Special Education and his nights writing rhymes has got to be coming from a unique perspective.

		Unfortunately, the amorphous, genre-stretching hip-hop records of 1989 and '90 proved to be something of a false start; while A Tribe Called Quest has continued to put out good albums, the band has grown more conservative with each release.
		Considering the lukewarm critical response to Beats, you'd think the group would be tempted to mess with the formula.
		Unfortunately, The Love Movement replicates the sound of Beats, Rhymes And Life so thoroughly that it might as well be titled More Beats, More Rhymes And Even More Life.

		With Beats, Rhymes and Life, Q-Tip and company have now made the same album three times, which would be something of a problem if the original weren't so damn great.
		The Afrocentric positivity and minimalistic beats are back, as are the ever-dumber boasts: "I packs 'em in like Van Halen," "Watch me stab up the track like O.J. Simpson," and so on.
		But for the most part, Beats is just more of a good thing.

	Music Review: A Tribe Called Quest - Beats, Rhymes And Life
		Review by: Chris R., Getzville, NY With all the negative publicity surrounding rap music in the past few years, A Tribe Called Quest's latest album, "Beats, Rhymes and Life" could not have been released a minute too soon.
		It is laced with smooth beats and conscience lyrics geared against gangsta rap.
		A repeating theme of the album is the emergence of so many phony rappers who have stepped into the rap scene yelling "keep it real" and constantly rapping about how many guns they carry and how much weed they smoke.

		By far the best beat is Ooh-La-Lah, where T-Dot’s own Liv L’Range drops a verse over a nice classical loop, Stone’s Throw style.Short disc, with 10 joints, (2 of them Interludes), but I’d take 8 dope tracks over 16 rabbit turds of filler any day.
