C H I love ATCQ and we do get very exciting looks at the birth of hip hop as a creative force of nature. And the iconoclasts, in their attitude, how they dressed, the topics they addressed in their lyrics. We also have the painful moments of the more toxic by the day band dynamics that lead to the breakup until they get back together to release a brilliant swan song album in 2016. Rated 4/5 Stars •  Rated 4 out of 5 stars 07/05/23 Full Review Audience Member focusing not only on the music but also on the personal relationships between members, this is a documentary that will appeal not only to fans of the band. Rated 3.5/5 Stars •  Rated 3.5 out of 5 stars 01/24/23 Full Review Audience Member I submerge myself in ATCQ albums, inject the samples in my veins and wonder in those realms for days... Rated 5/5 Stars •  Rated 5 out of 5 stars 02/11/23 Full Review Audience Member I sound like a broken record but yet again this feels like a DVD extra not a feature length documentary. I love 'Tribe' and it's interesting to hear them analysing their rise to fame and the complex group dynamics. Watching them bickering and fighting as middle aged men over money and inner squabbles is infinitely less interesting though and a little sad. Rated 2/5 Stars •  Rated 2 out of 5 stars 02/04/23 Full Review Audience Member Ignore if you are not hip hop followers at the very least but for all those who are this documentary tells the tale of 'A Tribe called Quest', duly allowing the members themselves to express their personal accounts of how the influential hip hop group came to exist and prematurely disband. Rated 3.5/5 Stars •  Rated 3.5 out of 5 stars 02/06/23 Full Review camille l Avec la présence de Michael Rapaport à la réalisation de Beats, Rhymes and Life, on pouvait avoir peur que ce documentaire sur A Tribe Called Quest se transforme en hagiographie à la gloire des quatre membres du groupe légendaire. Pourtant, après deux premières parties intéressantes mais pas transcendantes sur la musique et le rayonnement du groupe, Rapaport s'attaque au gros sujet du film : leur séparation. A ce moment-là, le film prend un tournant extrêmement dramatique et les deux instigateurs de la brouille, Q-Tip et Phife Dawg, ne mâchent pas leur mots. Edifiant, émouvant et passionnant, Beats, Rhymes & Life est un documentaire remarquable même pour les non-fans du groupe.
