A Tribe Called Quest - Track Five

The track was the basis for UK alternative dance band Primal Scream's 1997 hit Kowalski. The other noteworthy sample from the song that I could find didn't use the drum part at all. But this brings us to what was originally the end of the first record in the two record Tago Mago set. Is where this album either takes a strange turn or completely falls apart depending on who you ask. It almost doesn't make sense to give these tracks names, but to name the track is important to some. So they give it a word and the word is... Oh, good enough. Track five. That was magnificent. That is your master work, Mike. Thank you.
