about a movie about A Tribe Called Quest. This blog stands as testament to an effort over one year in the making - documenting, tracking, trying to understand Tribe. As we the filmmakers work with hundreds of hours of footage, clips, tracks, beats, interviews and fly-on-the-wall behind the scenes footage, this blog is here to introduce you to our story. Here you can track the research, see photos, link to videos and read the stories, our stories, your stories about Tribe.
Where are they now? They've played what was widely viewed as a farewell tour on Rock The Bells
in '08. That's where the odyssey begins. Mike
Rapaport goes to his friends' reported 'last gig' in Southern California and starts filming. Will they continue to perform? Will they record again?
Questions fresh in mind, camera firmly in hand, cinematography covered through seasoned pro Robert
Benavides , Mike set out to find the inner Tribe.
Along the way,
friends came in to the
fold to
help produce. An editor, the
fantastic Lenny
Mesina, has come aboard. All fans of Tribe, all believers in Mike's efforts and all true documentarians.
Our team is bringing you this website to show you what we're up to
and for you to share what
you love about A Tribe Called Quest. We'll keep updating as the film progresses; we ask that you share your stories and images with us. Tribe has touched so many lives. Perhaps yours. Perhaps you have a tale to tell, a photo or a video from some one-of-a-kind night you had because of A Tribe Called Quest. We'd love to hear it.
