Malik “ Phife Dawg” Taylor Street Dedication Ceremony

Someone in the crowd yells, “Can I Kick It?” The crowd yells back, “yes, you can!!”

Words cannot describe the energy of the crowd. I overheard one of the Politicians

say that they have never seen such a large crowd at a street sign dedication

ceremony. Nothing but love is what Malik “Phife Dawg” Taylor was shown at the street

dedication ceremony on 192nd  and Linden Blvd where he grew up. Represent, represent is what the remaining members of the Tribe did. Q-Tip and Jarobi spoke to the crowd and took pictures with the fans, as they anticipated the unveiling of the new street sign. Hundreds of family members, friends, and fans packed the street as the dee jay played A Tribe Called Quest  music.Celebrities on hand included Craig G., Consequence, Busta  Rhymes, Curt Flirt, Hurricane, Cool V, The Disco Twins, Pow  wow, Kangol Kid, Big Jeff, and Mr. Walt (Da BeatMinerz).  Memories of Phife were shared by his mom, Cheryl Boyce-Taylor , Senator Leroy   Comrie, and Peter Rosenburg of Hot 97. Some people laughed, others cried, and we all prayed. The show of support for the family was overwhelming.

“See, I’m not the one to be taken advantage of, and if you really think about it, I got nothin’ but love.”

“Linden Blvd represent,  represent

 A Tribe Called Quest represent, represent.”
