In 2016, we lost legendary lyricist, Malik “Phife Dawg” Taylor. One-fourth of A Tribe Called Quest, Phife was the articulate hip-hop spitter who not only served as the musical glue between members but also whose stories resonated deeply with rap fans. From “Can I Kick It?” to “Electric Relaxation,” the five-foot freak’s funky, fly verses will forever be heralded as some of the best hip-hop’s ever heard.
REVOLT Nation, turn up Phife Dawg’s jams today and below tell us which of his bars is the illest.
