A Tribe Called Quest hint at breakup with 'last' New York and LA shows | Music

Rap group A Tribe Called Quest have hinted at their imminent breakup, after they announced that concerts in New York and Los Angeles would be their last ever in the cities.

At the Panorama festival in New York, rapper Q-Tip announced the news before paying tribute to Phife Dawg, another of the group’s rappers, who died in March 2016 after a fight with diabetes.

It follows a similar announcement last week in Los Angeles, when Q-Tip told an audience at FYF festival: “This is our final performance here in LA as Tribe, obviously because Phife Dawg, our anchor, has been called to another mission.”

With their vivid storytelling helping to advance rap as a musical form in the early 1990s, A Tribe Called Quest became one of the most significant groups in the genre. After five albums they went on hiatus, but reformed for various live shows, eventually recording an acclaimed new album, We Got it From Here... Thank You 4 Your Service. It was released last year following Phife Dawg’s death.

The New York group have four remaining dates on their world tour, with the last lined up for Bestival in Dorset in September.
