Description
Mixtape King J.Period elevates his documentary style to new heights
to pay respect to this incomparable hip hop icon with The
[Abstract] Best, a comprehensive collection of Q-Tip's music and
production, new remixes, interviews, plus brand new tracks from an
All-Star lineup of hip hop heavyweights—paying tribute to
The Abstract's legacy.
Nothing makes this mixtape more highly-anticipated than the all-star lineup of contributors—De La Soul, Busta Rhymes, ?uestlove, Black Thought, Talib Kweli, Pharoahe Monch, Consequence, Zion I, Skillz, Black Sheep, Kid Cudi, Blu—a first of its kind in the mixtape game, and a testament to the depth of influence Q-Tip has had on hip hop's elite. No mixtape has ever boasted such a lineup, and no DJ has ever ventured to bring so many artists together for a single mixtape release. Hip hop's unbridled creativity once thrived in these kinds of collaborations, and J.Period is determined to re-ignite that spirit
"I greatly appreciate the time and dedication J.Period has put into this mixtape," say Q-Tip of the collaboration. "He has pulled together an amazing group of contributing artists, and I am honored that my music has been inspirational to all of them. The feeling is mutual."
"Q-Tip has inspired a generation of hip hop artists and fans, and I am no exception," seconds J.Period. "In an era of short attention spans, there is a reason why Q-Tip's legacy has survived so long: like any great artist, his music has substance. I hope this tape shows why his name should be mentioned among hip hop's all-time greats."
