Promo No. 2 (Mind Review '89) - Jungle Brothers, Q-Tip

Ahhh yeah, ha ha hah!

How y’all doin, everybody alright?

Yeah, that’s real good (uh-huh)

Remember me?

Heheh, I’m that guy

Hairy Jungle Brother, hehahahehah

Now I’m squattin, squattin on my tree top

Watchin, as the Baby Bam beat rocks

Now more people are knowin (knowin)

Why the mighty Tribe is growin (growin)

As the vibe from the Tribe keeps glowin (glowin)

The wind from the bass keeps blowin (blowin)

In time, in time, rememberin that rhyme

Just a little somethin to tickle your mind

Now that I got your mind workin

Yeah, how the J Beez workin?

Jungle Brothers on the run, makin babies

A Tribe Called Quest, first birth of the J Beez

Promo No. 1, Q-Tip had a fade

Promo No. 2, Q-Tip rocks braids

Ask Mike G about society

I said in time yo behind you’ll see

Ali Shaheed, Jarobi and Phife

Up with the Arks cause the Ankhs means life

I’m poppin straight up so you can take the toll

From the J Beez, to De La Soul

Now there’s a Tribe that’s comin

Brothers on the street hum along with the beat

And repeat that pattern I summoned

… «Is it comin, is it comin?»

Indeed indeed, it’s funky and groovy

… «But Q-Tip, do you really think it will move me?»

To El Segundo and back hon

New funk is here, so come get some

Don’t stump your hump, come bump your rump

To the rip-diddy-dip dip rhythm

Yeah, right about now I’d like to take out these few seconds

To say whassup to my sound system

Uncle Sam, you alright?

You alright?

Alright.

Some folks wanna know, what goes on

Some don’t like the way the J Beez carry on

Whassup wit’chu brother, yeah you black

The one with the red gold green applejack

Baby Bam, I chose the name

I don’t want the fame I just wanna play the game

Beads around my wrist and around my ankle

You bought my record so now I thank you

Now it’s time for me to resurrect

I’ve got to move on and take the next step

Raise my soul from out the graveyard

Take my rap to another backyard

Use my mind to do somethin new

Somethin that your crew never thought to do

God up above, won’t you help me

To gather my people in unity

The new year’s here, so I’ma start like this

Everybody raise your right first

C’mon!

Let me hear you say yeahhh (yeahhh)

C’mon y’all, say oh yeah (ohh yeahh)

It’s comin, it’s comin

Peace!
