A Tribe Called Quest helped a whole generation of kids feel less alone in the '90s and beyond. Music journalist Hanif Abdurraqib used to be one of those kids. Now, he's the author of a new book called Go Ahead In The Rain. It's about what the hip-hop group meant to him and why they're considered one of the greatest of all time.

In this q gateway to A Tribe Called Quest, Abdurraqib picks his favourite songs by the group and tells us why they matter. His book Go Ahead In The Rain is out now.
