Director, Michael Rapaport, came to my studio last year to choose photos to use in the documentary ‘Beats, Rhymes & Life: The Travels of a Tribe Called Quest’. We chatted for hours, Michael had an amazing knowledge and passion for those times. The movie just came out, ‘Tribe’ were interviewed on NPR talking about how they were part of a community of people making music, the ‘hip hop Beatles” said ” how it felt was the only thing that mattered .. the money and fame were not important .. ” Seeing the movie last night reminded me of what I loved about hip hop  and the collective fun, conciousness and creativity of The Native Tongues Posse .
