no dope beats. no dope rhymes. great music. great songwriting. frustrations I relate with. one of a kind. hard drums. guitars you can hear. funky bass. getting kicked in the teeth with timbs keys. menacing. bright. dismal. The Roots sounding like a band ON RECORD. great display of rapping from established emcees. promising display of talent from up and comers. great display of talent. music I always wish The Roots would've made. hip hop. if you dont get that its hip hop then let me point you to the door. JAM!.
