On Saturday night, A Tribe Called Quest was inducted into the Rock & Roll Hall of Fame. And to celebrate the occasion, a number of people spoke on the group’s impact, with figures like André 3000 extending praise to them in a pre-recorded video, while others, like Dave Chappelle, were present to take in the honor with them.
“Tribe, I want to thank you for your service,” Chappelle said during a tribute speech for the group. “What you’ve done for our culture means the world for me, but what you did for me that night changed my life, because that night you shared your platform with me and invited me to be on Saturday Night Live with you, and it brought me back to television after 12 years in the cold. And I will always, always be grateful for you.”
We loved Dave Chappelle’s speech to induct A Tribe Called Quest into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame! 👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾
