Is A Tribe Called Quest's Anthology a good starter cd for someone getting intohip-hop

[Movies205]

I've started listening to old-school hip-hop, my firend gave me around 50 songs from NWA, Public Enemy, Wu-Tang Clan and DR. Dre's Chronic Album, I really dug the stuff a lot so I want buy an album of some old-school hip-hop. I hear good things about A tribe called quest so is there anthology cd, good?

All that stuff is good to start with. I listened to that kind of thing in high school. If you're right for rap, you grow into stuff like Kool Keith, E40 and Totally Insane.

The Anthology is pretty good but I personally think the Midnight Marauders album is Tribe's absolute best. I think the Anthology has about 3-4 tracks from the Marauder album. Off the top of my head I know they have "Electric Relaxation" and "Award Tour" on the Anthology.

Award Tour is probably my favorite Tribe song. That and Jam and that other one with Busta Rhymes on it.
