Apple releases posthumous Phife Dawg song, “Nutshell”

At the time of his death last month, A Tribe Called Quest co-founder Malik “Phife Dawg” Taylor was working on a new solo album Muttymorphosis; he was also preparing to Give Thanks on an EP back in February, for which “Nutshell” would have served as a single. The song, which was teased earlier this year, has now been released by Apple Music with the consent of Taylor’s family. Here’s the full video for “Nutshell,” which opens with tributes from his hip-hop contemporaries, including Tribe’s Jarobi White.
