Book Description
A New York Times Best Seller 2019 National Book Award Longlist, Nonfiction 2019 Kirkus Book Prize Finalist, Nonfiction A February IndieNext Pick Named A Most Anticipated Book of 2019 by Buzzfeed, Nylon, The A. V. Club, CBC Books, and The Rumpus, and a Winter's Most Anticipated Book by Vanity Fair and The Week Starred Reviews: Kirkus and Booklist "Warm, immediate and intensely personal."—New York Times How does one pay homage to A Tribe Called Quest? The seminal rap group brought jazz into the genre, resurrecting timeless rhythms to create masterpieces such as The Low End Theory and Midnight Marauders. Seventeen years after their last album, they resurrected themselves with an intense, socially conscious record, We Got It from Here . . . Thank You 4 Your Service, which arrived when fans needed it most, in the aftermath of the 2016 election. Poet and essayist Hanif Abdurraqib digs into the group’s history and draws from his own experience to reflect on how its distinctive sound resonated among fans like himself. The result is as ambitious and genre-bending as the rap group itself. Abdurraqib traces the Tribe's creative career, from their early days as part of the Afrocentric rap collective known as the Native Tongues, through their first three classic albums, to their eventual breakup and long hiatus. Their work is placed in the context of the broader rap landscape of the 1990s, one upended by sampling laws that forced a reinvention in production methods, the East Coast–West Coast rivalry that threatened to destroy the genre, and some record labels’ shift from focusing on groups to individual MCs. Throughout the narrative Abdurraqib connects the music and cultural history to their street-level impact. Whether he’s remembering The Source magazine cover announcing the Tribe’s 1998 breakup or writing personal letters to the group after bandmate Phife Dawg’s death, Abdurraqib seeks the deeper truths of A Tribe Called Quest; truths that—like the low end, the bass—are not simply heard in the head, but felt in the chest.

Book Description
The go-ahead man must understand the purpose of a wife, and he must realize that marrying a woman does not make her a wife. The go-ahead man must also obey God and do as God have commanded him; this is why he needs a help meet. If the man is not doing what God has commanded him, he doesnt need a help meet: lets face it, men, we dont need help when we are not doing anything; he can do that all by himself. In a Christian marriage we must understand that God created the union of marriage and he knows what it takes to make it work. Every man has the ability to be a go-ahead man, all he needs is himself. What something is worth will be determined by what someone will give for it. Just like Christ gave himself for the church? The go-ahead man gives himself for the marriage. The man must understand that he is the head, not because he is smarter, stronger, or because he is a good provider: he is simply the head because thats what the Word of God said. The mans failure to function as the head is a lack of belief in Gods Word. As Christians we must realize who the real enemy is. One thing that the go-ahead man must get very skillful at, especially when relating to his wife, is recognizing when Satan comes into the conversation. Satans desire is to destroy the union of marriage. I believe the reason that destruction of the marriage is so high on Satans priority list is because Satan knows if he destroys the marriage then he can disrupt the church, and if the church is not in place, then he can win a community and finally a nation. But I thank God that Satans plan will not work because Jesus said in Mark 10:9, What therefore God hath joined together, let not man put asunder.
