Phife Dawg live in Paris
It always bums me out to hear an artist discuss the songs in their catalog that they don't like to play, as those songs are typically the ones that I (and most other fans) get the most excited about. Prior to watching the above video of Phife Dawg performing in Paris, I would have guessed that the Tribe members were most tired of fulfilling requests for Scenario rather than Can I Kick It. Surely that's got to be the most requested by fans, a mandatory inclusion in any Tribe concert, and I would be surprised to find out that Kick It gets requested even half as much. De La Soul's dislike of Me, Myself and I is equally sad to hear, as it's one of the greatest hip hop cuts of all time.
Nevertheless, it's great to see Phife Dawg out performing. He seems to have made a dramatic recovery since his kidney transplant and has mentioned plans to release a solo album at some point this year called Songs in the Key of Phife.
Shout out to Love On The Beat for the video. And for those who need it, here's the playlist:
