"Tribe" is a song by American rappers Bas and J. Cole. It was released on August 22, 2018, released as the second single for his album Milky Way. It was produced by Childish Major with additional production from J. Cole. The song contains a sample of "Zum Zum" performed by Edu Lobo.[1][2]

Background

On August 18, Bas was on Instagram live previewing songs from his album, which was due on August 24. One of the snippets was from "Tribe" showcasing "an up-tempo, percussive instrumental," and later revealing the release date of the single.[3][4] The song is ninth collaboration between the two Dreamville artists, including "My Nigga Just Made Bail", "Lit" and "Night Job", among others.[5][6] When talking about J. Cole helping with the post-production of the song, Bas said:

I learned a lot with this project just you know, really taking the time leaving no stone unturned. Especially nowadays, people are conditioned to hear things a certain way like trap drums are so popular. So it’s like adding some hi-hats and switching the snare there, and throwing the 808 is going to make the difference some kid connecting or not connecting with it.[7]

Music video

The music video for the song was released on August 22.[8] The video was shot in Miami's Little Haiti neighborhood.[9] Sidney Madden of NPR said, "like the song's message, the video celebrates the timing of life's blessings."[10]

In other media

The song "Tribe" was featured on the soundtrack to 2018 video game FIFA 19.[11]
