Triple colored vinyl repress for Record Store Day 2013! Not only do you get hooked up with three different colored vinyls featuring the vocal versions and instrumentals for this limited pressing of A Quest To The Pharcyde, but you also get a special slipmat featuring the Bizarre Tribe logo. That should easily seal the deal, but if you're still hesitant to add to cart, it is rumored that only 150 copies were made, so act fast! Our original review: A full album of Tribe x Pharcyde mash-ups from Amerigo Gazaway. Ya'll should remember Amerigo from his last mash-up effort Fela Soul, and here on Bizarre Tribe he puts those blending skills to work on classics from two legendary rap groups. The combination of Tribe and Pharcyde works perfectly like peanut butter & jelly as heard on "Runnin," (now with the beat of "Electric Relaxation") "Bonita Keeps Passin' Me By" ("Bonita Applebum" raps over "Passin Me By"), "Ya Mama And Stuff," and "Otha Otha Fish." The flawless mixing and matching of raps and beats makes every track on here a win-win situation. Think of these as classics that never were, from a parallel universe. Recommended for hip-hop heads and mashup fans alike.
