Q-Tip reveals why he is against upcoming ATCQ documentary

Q-Tip went on record to state why he is currently not supporting the upcoming A Tribe Called Quest documentary that will premiere at the Sundance Film Festival. According to Tip the movie just simply is not finished yet and “has holes” but producer/director Michael Rappaport is going forth anyways in order to hit Sundance. Listen to his radio interview here.

Q-Tip goes public to denounce upcoming ATCQ documentary


Even though Q-Tip had previously allowed director Michael Rappaport exclusive access to thousands of hours of footage for the upcoming A Tribe Called Quest documentary Beats, Rhythm & Life (see trailer), apparently they don’t see eye-to-eye on the finished movie. Q-Tip recently went public on Twitter with the following message:

@QtipTheAbstract:  I am not in support of the a tribe called quest documentary. The filmmaker should respect the band to the point of honoring the few requests that’s was made abt the piece

@QtipTheAbstract: filmmaker shld respect the band enough to honor our request regarding the the film

Sucks that this documentary won’t have Q-Tip’s full approval as it premieres at the 2011 Sundance Film Festival. More info as we get it.
