Rap alb By TODD SCHOLL Staff Writer By the end of this fall, rap afficianados will most certainly be broke. During the summer, a plethora of quality rap albums were released. Among some of the best were: De La Soul, De La Soul Is Dead; Third Bass, Derelicts of Dialect; Ice T, Original Gangster; K.M.D., Mr. Hood; Leaders of the New School, A Future Without a Past, r fT? , ?s. rr-k /X /i -? n 3 -?

This deluge of god-like hip-hop put a rather large dent in my summer paycheck. Just when I thought I would have a chance to put down my wallet and let it take a breather, A Tribe Called Qu6st releases their sophomore outing, The Low End Theory. A Tribe Called Quest, a member of "The Native Tongues," made its debut when lead rapper Q-Tip said, "black is black" on De La Soul's immortal 3 Ft. High and Rising. In March of 1990, A Tribe Called Quest released People's Instinctive Travels and the Paths of Rhythm. Although this album didn't explode on the commercial scene, (because sell-out, greedy, spineless, sucker program directors tend to shy away from rap that has any value or creativity), hardcore rap meisters knew what time it was. "I Left My Wallet in El Segundo," "Bonita Applebum" and the classic "Can I Kick It" had heads bobbing up and down all summer long. Radio stations have only allowed Q-Tip on the radio when he made a cameo appearance on Dee Lite's smash single "Groove is in Blockfest AfricanBy JONATHAN JAMISON Staff Writer The first annual AfricanAmerican Blockfest '91 will begin today at noon and last until 6 p.m. on Greene street in rront or the Russell House. The event is being sponsored by The Assocation of African American Students (AAAS). Journalism senior Donna Moore, who is serving as president this year, organized the event. The gates in front of the Russell House will be closed a couple of hours later to prevent any interruptions.

Some radio stations Jj dislike quality rap so much that they edited out Q-Tip's rhyme. [J Nevertheless, Tribe's first album is a masterpiece. " Mniu A TrIKn B Awn n inuv vaiiVAi yuwi glYW us The Low End Theory. Slow groovy jazz samples are the trade- 0 mark of A Tribe Called Quest, but it's not like all they know is jazz ^ and hip-hop. Q-Tip and Phife can S1 flow like the Mighty Mississippi ^ and then some. Their lyrics are ^ clever and creative. The samples ai on this album come from such var- Cl ious artists as The Average White ^ Band, Funkadelic and Grant ?* Green. None of the samples are very fa- 'e miliar, like the "Walk on the Wild ^ Side" loop used on "Can I Kick It," but they add nice flavor to the St hard beats. It seems like Quest is da reaching back to the roots of hip- sc hop in fear that rap is straying V; away from its origins. The boom- in bastic beats, jazzy samples and sti smooth rhyming styles combine to create a musical cornucopia that is fr< likely to give you an eargasm.
