When's The Last Time You Heard A Funky Diabetic?
There was a benefit concert at the Knitting Factory in Brooklyn last night to raise money to help A Tribe Called Quest MC Phife Dawg, who has diabetes, pay his medical bills. At the end of the show, Phife’s old partners Q-Tip and Ali Shaheed Muhammad joined him onstage to perform a string of songs from 1993’s Midnight Marauders album. Here’s “Oh My God”-during which Q-Tip mimes the act of giving Phife dialysis-and “Award Tour.” Pretty joyous.
