Video: Q-Tip “Gettin’ Up”



I would have been completely content with the unofficial video for Q-Tip‘s song “Gettin’ Up,” but The Abstract does us one better with this version. This is some real smooth two step music right here. Q-Tip’s album The Renaissance is due out on November 4th.

Bonus: Q-Tip spits an a capella at the Pac Div show at Love in NYC last night.

    Man… I TRIED to warn y’all a few months back. ‘Tip ain’t playing this time around. He’s about to show y’all why he’s the good shepherd of this shit we call: Music. Word!

    That made me smile…

  10. avatar Word em up

    love the vibe…. yo, Kanye… if u wanna sing, this is how you go about it. I think Tip’s knows now to keep it to a minimum. Still like the unofficial version better though.

    Can’t wait for the album to drop…but I swear, if I hear a vocoder just ONE TIME on this joint…..so help meeeeee!!

    *clenches fists, looks to the sky, drops to knees* I HATE YOU TPAAAIIIINNNN!!!

    I hereby declare Q-Tip is no longer The Abstract. He is now The Ambassador. This is the second time the Natives Tongues change the game. (In my opinion, of course.)

    DOPENESS has abounded here. i am pleased
    can’t wait for the record. it’s been a up and
    down year for hip hop. some really good shit
    has come out that nobody has paid attention too
    and some really wack shit has come out that
    has gone platinum *coughfucksouljhaboycough*.

    i just hope people actually go and buy this record
    instead of downloading it.

    big up to Qtip.

    The Red Jacket he is wearing is from a Mountie(RCMP) uniform. He’s got mad style.

    That’s good sh*t right there. Once I heard the music from madlib’s joint “understing”, and the first 2 lines of the song, I was locked in. I did say to myself though, “what in the world this bamma got on?” lol

    Can’t wait for the rest.

  22. avatar Dante.

    Fucking Greatness.
    I see Mr. Robert Glasper on the keys.
    YezuR!

  23. avatar Xeventhson

  30. avatar Tony Blends
