I absolutely LOVE both. Low End Theory is on my Top 10 GOAT Hip Hop albums list but Midnight Marauders is definitely my Numero Uno
I don’t wanna have to be forced into choosing one album that has songs like:
Scenario
Butter
Buggin’ Out
Verses from the Abstract
Jazz (We’ve Got)
Check the Rhime
Excursions
Show Business
Rap Promoter
And one album that has songs like:
Midnight
Electric Relaxation
Sucka nikka
Steve Biko
Award Tour
8 Million Stories
Oh My God
Keep It Rollin’
The Chase, Pt. II
Lyrics to Go
God Lives Through
Honestly, Low End Theory is kinda neck and neck with TPAB as my No. 2 GOAT Hip Hop album.
I remember watching the music video to Electric Relaxation for the first time on a school-issued laptop in class back in 2010. I was still 17 but that song and its music video was a whole fukking vibe moe....No funny, but that shyt real live set me off on my backpacker/underground/90’s Rap/“Real Hip Hop” stage and I’m forever thankful for that

That’s why I love everything Tribe to this very day....If I was as old back when they was making noise as I am now, I would’ve loved to have visit NYC or anywhere and catch them in person and just kick it with them man.
I was also attracted to their Afrocentric yet cool and mellowed but also fun-loving energy too. Electric Relaxation was among the very first songs I bought on iTunes when I bought my iPod Nano

Good times
I wanna get a turntable one day and get the vinyl versions of both TLET and MM, I know that shyt will sound smooth like butter
