The fourth CD by these lyrically abstract, battle-ready MCs already has heads buzzing about the return of playful yet potent hip-hop. This time, A Tribe Called Quest tackles everything from O.J. to spirituality with trademark originality. Cuts like ''Stressed Out'' (with R&B lovely Faith Evans cooing between the crew's vernacular) and the ebullient ''The Hop'' surpass expectation. Can they still kick it? Beats, Rhymes and Life proves that yes, they can. A
