The Roots. Thank God there is still real hip hop. I just picked up their new album, Rising Down...fuckin' amazing per usual. I highly recommend it. Black Thought has got to be in the discussion for top 10, maybe top 5, lyricists of all time. And how many hip hop groups do you know that have a live band? C'mon...fucking awesome. Go pick up the record.



Any other fans of The Roots?

Me but not a massive fan. I love the song "In The Music." It's just so insanely epic.
I have a love affair with ?uestlove though, and I'm not entirely sure why. Probably a mixture of hip hop having a great drummer and his name.
