DJ Charlie White’s “A Tribe Called Wu” Mix is F**king Dope (Listen & Download) Posted by Nathan S. on 04/19/12 | Filed under Downloads, Rap Nerdery, A Tribe Called Quest, Wu-Tang, DJ Charlie White

Here's why I dig DJ Charlie White's "A Tribe Called Wu" mash-up mix of the most classic of classic A Tribe Called Quest and Wu-Tang Clan joints: most DJs like to put themselves in front of the music. Instead of listening to some dope music, you're listening to a DJ essentially say, "Hey, look what I can do!"

Not here. Instead, this is just 30 straight minutes of some of the dopest music in hip-hop history. Seriously - it's weirdly easy to forget just how much of an impact Tribe and Wu had on hip-hop until you hear them concentrated into one mix. Every ten seconds you're like "Oh shit! This is my joint." For example, as many times as I've heard it, I didn't really think of Raekwon's "No question I would speed, for cracks and weed
/ The combination made my eyes bleed" off "CREAM" as one of the best single lines in rap history until I heard it in this mix. Really though...name a better line. Go ahead. I'll wait.

Obviously getting deep into some Rap Nerdery. I'll just shut the fuck up and let you listen. Enjoy:
