2K Sports Reunites A Tribe Called Quest for the 2nd Annual 2K Sports Bounce Tour; A Tribe Called Quest Embarks on First Tour in 6 Years.

NEW YORK -- 2K Sports, a publishing label of Take-Two Interactive Software, Inc. (Nasdaq: TTWO), today announced the reuniting of legendary hip hop act, A Tribe Called Quest, to headline the first leg of the 2nd Annual 2K Sports Bounce Tour in 15 cities. This marks A Tribe Called Quest's first tour in over half a decade. In addition to headlining the tour, an exclusive track from the group will appear on the upcoming 'Dan The Automator Presents 2K7' soundtrack with Phife Dawg appearing as a playable character. Joining A Tribe Called Quest on this historic national tour is Rhymefest.

Comprised of Phife Dawg, Q-Tip, and Ali Shaheed Muhammad, A Tribe Called Quest is known as one of the most intelligent and artistic rap groups of the '90s with four solid albums and a string of hip-hop classics prior to their 1998 break-up. This heavily anticipated reunion marks one of the top hip-hop happenings of the year.

"I'm excited for me and my group to be a part of the 2K Sports Bounce Tour," said Phife from A Tribe Called Quest. "It's a win-win situation for Tribe because we get to be a part of such a dope game, and we get to reach out and touch our fans in these 15 cities. I couldn't ask for a better opportunity. Also, I'm excited because everyone knows I am a sports nut, so being down with the game and also being a character in the game is crazy to me."

The 2nd Annual 2K Bounce Tour is the latest addition to 2K Sports' series of annual live events that bridge hip-hop, sports and video game culture by featuring renowned music artists, sports gaming kiosks, projection vignettes and celebrity and professional athlete appearances. The tour will take place in more than a dozen top markets throughout the month of September, with details posted at http://2ksports.com/go/bounce/.
