In response to Reply # 0


  

          

Greg spits, but this track just comes alive when Thought comes on; it fits his tone better...
not to mention he rips shit lyrically.

Good mood music, but it's like the mood isn't fully realized until Thought appears.
No slight to Greg tho... just not his track, imo.

Everything's turning out perfectly

The music does seem tailor made for Thought's voice and would probably be even better with an additional verse from Thought.

I think it's cool.

The "Fucking sucks" thing was because someone posted a song that was not by The Roots to trick people into listen to it on Youtube.

(And it was a shock post title)

41. "& The You Shoot Your Cousin is supposed to be another concept album?"
In response to Reply # 0


  

          

if it is, then I could see how this could be a song that sets up a chapter of the story.

the song itself is okay. solid, but if it were on the Undun, I wouldn't name it as one of the better songs on the album.

that being said, the lead singles from the albums of The Roots are rarely the best song on the album - the exception might be 'Proceed' from Do You Want More??!!?.

I'll be at Waterloo Records in Austin on the Tuesday it is released. (are albums still released on Tuesdays?)

Beat isn't bad by any means, but it's very run of the mill. Black Thought is every reason to listen to this and he alone makes it worth your time.

In response to Reply # 46


  

          

beat sounds like something that wasn't good enough for Undun

Porn is okay

Black Thought's verse is crazy.

The only reason I listened that long is because I'm such a fan of The Roots.

Anyone else I would have cut this off in the middle of the first verse.

still looking forward to the album though, I don't think they care about trying to hook people with a first single anymore.

It's a great feeling. I used to play basketball in college. I think that some people get addicted to it. I think that it make a person or a group feel really good.

When are they gonna utilize their BAND on a record?!?

I've been nice and defended them for YEARS!!

I OWN EVERY RECORD...

Seen em 20+ times live

That shit is over--enough for the predictable blah blah beat and hipster half hearted hook with BT ripping the shit a new asshole...

Talk about out kicking your coverage!!

Make a radio1, 6 music masterpiece where you utilize the individual talents of the band members..

When have you heard Kirk or Tuba or James get funky on a studio album??

Never...

If you play the shit that they like, the people would come...

62. "The video is dope as fug"
In response to Reply # 0


  

          

is dope as fuck... and is one of those that made me like the song more. Or maybe its just that I haven't heard the song enough yet and am still taking it in. Or maybe I am just hyped after coppin the preorder.

Regardless, the video is the kitties titties and for whatever the reason - I dig the song more now than I did at first.
