DJ Melo-D "God Lives Through" (Tribute To Phife, 2016)


Beat Junkies' DJ, Melo-D, does a special tribute to Phife Dawg in honor of the fallen MC. Phife Dawg, 1/4 of one of the greatest Hip-Hop groups of all-time, A Tribe Called Quest, passed away on March 22, 2016 due to complications from diabetes. In the mix of things, I didn't post this tribute when it was released in 2016, but the music lives on, God Lives Through, and our shoutouts and deepest condolences remain to Q-Tip, Ali Shaheed Muhammad, Jarobi; Phife's family and all the fans around the world! On a personal note, today also marks the one-year anniversary of my mother's passing. Somehow, this celebration of the life of Phife Dawg also provides a slight respite and a soundtrack to days when this pain and loss doesn't hit me as hard. Listen along with me below...
