Análisis (en inglés) - :
Continuing with the subdued, mature stylistic flow of {^Beats, Rhymes and Life}, {^The Love Movement}, the fifth album from {$A Tribe Called Quest}, is the group's subtlest album yet -- which may just be a polite way for saying it's a little monotonous. Throughout the record, {$Tribe} mines the same {\jazz}-flavored, {\R&B}-fueled beats that were the hallmark of {^Beats}. Although the "love" concept provides a thematic cohesion to the album -- almost all of the songs are about love, in one way or another -- the overall effect is quite similar to its immediate predecessor: the music is enthralling for a while, but soon it all sounds a little too familiar. Part of the problem is that {$Tribe} functions on a cerebral level, a point made painfully clear by {$Busta Rhymes}' and {$Redman}'s roaring, visceral cameos on {&"Steppin' It Up."} On their own, {$Tribe} favors craft over raw skills. That means there are plenty of pleasures to be had from careful listening, but {$Tribe} has reached a point where it's easier to admire {$the Ummah}'s stylish production and the subtle rhymes of {$Q-Tip}, {$Phife}, and {$Ali Shaheed} than it is to outright love them, which is ironic for an album bearing the title {^The Love Movement}. ~ Stephen Thomas Erlewine, All Music Guide
