A Tribe Called Quest has been one of the most commercial successful and artistically significant musical groups in recent history. The band's sudden break-up in 1998 shocked the industry and saddened the scores of fans, whose appetite for the group's innovative musical stylings never seem to diminish. This insightful film, directed by Michael Rapaport, takes viewers on a behind-the-scenes journey -- chronicling the group's rise to fame and revealing the stories behind the tensions which erupted in the years to come.
Thanks to a particularly even-handed job by director Michael Rapaport, the story emerges as compelling, even for non-fans in the audience.
