Despite a lifelong love of Tribe Called Quest, I've never gotten too excited about the solo work of Q-Tip.  I think I picked this up as a promo at Schoolkids or some other local record store, because I definitely don't remember buying it.  Both the title track and the b-side "Move" (produced by J Dilla, for the record) are from his album "The Renaissance," so it would make sense this is a promo album.  It's a totally fine record, two good hip hop songs, though nothing even close to as inspiring as Tribe in their prime.
