Q-Tip will hit the road this fall alongside Common for the 2K Sports Bounce Tour including stops in Philadelphia, Atlanta, New York, San Francisco and Los Angeles (see complete schedule below). The popular video game series NBA 2K8 features Q-Tip as a playable character. He can also be heard on the soundtrack alongside Talib Kweli on the J Dilla track "Lightworks." The game hits shelves October 2.
While on the road, the multi-platinum, Grammy Award-winning artist will offer up new material from his highly-anticipated release The Renaissance - due early 2008 via Universal Motown. Featuring a unique mix of samples and a live band, the album is the latest chapter in one of the most storied careers in urban music. The first single - "WorkItOut" - is currently available for download on iTunes.
VH1 will pay tribute to A Tribe Called Quest at the fourth annual VH1 Hip Hop Honors- premiering Monday, October 8 at 10 p.m. Eastern/Pacific. Inspiring generations of hip-hop artists, Q-Tip and fellow Tribe members Phife Dawg and Ali Shaheed Muhammad played a key role in turning the genre into the mainstream phenomenon it is today.
