Q-Tip

Q-Tip’s Kamaal/The Abstract is a lost masterpiece of experimental hip-hop and soul. Recorded in 2001 but shelved for years, this album finds the legendary rapper and producer pushing the boundaries of his sound, blending live instrumentation, jazz improvisation, and free-form lyrical expression. It’s a raw, ambitious, and deeply soulful record that showcases his fearless creativity and marks a pivotal point in his artistic journey.
