That moment when Enter the Wu-Tang isn’t even the best album released on November 9, 1993

Toss up between this one and The Low End Theory as ATCQ's best record for me. In a pinch I might go with this one just because I like the laid-back, chill mood it creates, making it a good listen for late at night.

Totally agree with SimonePerrota, I could have wrote the same comment. I'd choose Midnight Marauders over The Low End Theory anyday.

Hey, my name is theoctothorp and I spent like seven years in college and while I was there I listened this album like all the time. My neighbors loved me!

Better than Low End, imo. Low End is one of the best hip-hop albums of all time, but I think the jazz sound gets kind of repetitive throughout. Whereas, on Marauders, the samples and sounds are fresh and different for each song. Plus, sounds like they are having more fun on here. Also, the Tour Guide beats anything on Low End, hands down. This really says it a lot better than I did.

no-one's debating that their first two aren't, this is just their most complete and concise for me - for a variety of reasons... the thoughtful interludes anchor the album and whilst the jam-oriented tracks are decidedly laid back and less blatantly thematic than those of TLET, they offer more insight and replay value than any other album of theirs - the more you listen... The whole thing just plays beautifully, kinda like Redman's Muddy Waters... It's a cerebral album in every sense of the word - perfectly crafted beats, smooth and upbeat yet forward-thinking and deep...

I respectfully disagree with you guys on "Midnight Marauders" being better than The Low End Theory. Why can't you just say the debut, Low End Theory and this are all classic hip-hop albums? I don't see what's the whole point about which one has more lyrically content about hip-hop/rap, etc. The Tribe Called Quest are very gifted hip-hop/rap group.

I'm glad I'm not the only who thinks this is superior to The Low End Theory... Every track is a celebration of hip-hop and how many vibes it can transcend whilst simultaneously covering immense ground lyrically in a sort of thoughtful, rambling manner... Flawless from start to finish...
