Q-Tip has three albums in the works
Q-Tip has revealed that he's been working on not just one, but three new albums.
A Tribe Called Quest's Q-Tip has announced that he's been working on three new albums via a new clip on Instagram.
He shared the one-and-a-half-minute clip on Friday (10 April), coinciding with his 50th birthday.
In the video, Q-Tip plays a bass riff and shares the album titles in text - Algorhythms, Riot Diaries, and The Last Zulu.

As Pitchfork notes, Q-Tip's last solo album was 2008’s The Renaissance. He hasn't been quiet since then though - in 2013 he teamed up with Busta Rhymes on The Abstract and the Dragon, and in 2016 A Tribe Called Quest released their final LP We got it from Here... Thank You 4 Your service following the death of their co-founder Phife Dawg.
