Battle of the Beats
Who Do You Want To 'Find A Way' With? A Tribe Called Quest Or Dwele?
The past two Battle of the Beats have produced some lopsided results, and the fun continues again this week with A Tribe Called Quest squaring off against Dwele with their identically-titled songs, "Find A Way." It's not right, but it's OK.
Tribe's "Find A Way" came from their 1998 album, The Love Movement, which sadly turned out to be their last together as a group. Although the disc as a whole wasn't as good as their previous work, "Find A Way" was one of the better songs on there and can still get bodies moving when the needle hits the record.
Whereas ATCQ's "Find A Way" came at the end of their recording career, Dwele's song came at the beginning of his. "Find A Way" was one of the singles from his tight debut album, Subject. Another dance floor groover, this Dwele cut helped to put him on the map and his talent has kept him there.
So, who's going to win in this hip-hop and soul battle, folks?

Tribe of course. "Teasin me like Tisha did Martin." No contest. This song will FOREVER be the ISH.
Sorry, Dwells.

Not a fan of Dwele. The musical equivalent of a sedative.
rkj | April 2, 2008 5:25 PM | PermalinkYou know what? This one's tougher than I thought it would be.
My heart says Tribe, but if my head nod is any indicator, Dwele kinda got this one.
One time for the new kid on the block! Dwele.
