Beats Rhymes & Life: The Travels of a Tribe Called Quest

A FILM BY Michael Rapaport

Beats is a welcome blast of ’90s nostalgia, taking us back to a time — and a sound — that pulsates with optimism.

- Owen Gleiberman, Entertainment Weekly

Beats, Rhymes & Life: The Travels of a Tribe Called Quest” gives the seminal early ’90s hip-hop group as stylish and intimate a treatment as fans could hope for, paying as much attention to the music in question as it does to the characters who made it

- Andrew Barker, Variety

The film serves both as a welcome document and reminder of the group in its prime, while also creating a portrait of lives still in motion, grown men trying to move on from yet respect the work of their younger selves.
