''Midnight Marauders'' is a Hip Hop album by A Tribe Called Quest , released on November 9 , 1993 (see 1993 In Music ). The album was a critical and commercial success, especially the hit single "Award Tour", though its Jazz Rap fusion and intellectual songwriting were subdued in comparison with the previous record, '' The Low End Theory '', leading to some criticism. The album still contains important themes, like the use of the word Nigger . But does not forget to have spirituality. The listener is guided through the program by a robotic voiced woman played by Laurel Dann.
