Led by MC Tariq \"Black Thought\" Trotter and drummer Ahmir \"Questlove\" Thompson, the group built a reputation for dynamic performances and a sound that draws from jazz, soul and funk traditions. Over the years they have been acclaimed for pushing the boundaries of hip hop by incorporating a full band approach rather than relying solely on sampled beats. Their work emphasizes musicianship, improvisation and socially aware songwriting.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eDo You Want More?!!!??! captures the group at a formative moment, showcasing their transition into major label release territory while retaining an earthy, jazz-inflected approach. Recorded and released under Geffen\/DGC in the mid 1990s, this album features extended arrangements, live horns and percussion and tracks that highlight both lyrical dexterity and instrumental interplay. The record is often cited as a defining early example of jazz rap and alternative hip hop, and it helped broaden the audience for bands who make hip hop with live musicians.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eExecutive Producers: Richard Nichols and A.J.
