15065, ?UESTLOVE ACTS SHADY
Posted by guest, Fri Aug-10-01 12:24 PM
what up...i just have to let somebody know about my disappointing encounter with ?uestlove. as with most of us, the roots are our group. naturally i had to be there to represent last tuesday here in phoenix at club rio when they performed (and they really fuckin performed) with dilated peoples. i waited sidestage for an hour to show love as they all got off the bus and on stage. black thought came through and said what up and i paid my respects. scratch came through and said what up and i paid my respects. but when ?uest came through, i had my hand out to let him know how much i can't wait for that philly experiment to come out and he responded quote "get out of my way" without even laying eyes on me. i was surprised at his attitude toward a long-time fan, but maybe i shouldn't have been. so big ups to the roots for a tight ass show, but fuck Questlove for actin so shady.

I'm sure there are hundreds of people on this site with positive stories about meeting ?uest...I'm one of those people...now what is the point of coming up on this board and saying fuck ?uest when you have only come in contact with the man once in your entire life? that "i'm surprised he treated us badly considering we are big fans" crap is getting old. I've seen so many damn posts about that over the last two years on this website...it's a topic that has been beaten to death people...get over it

First of all, Fuck Yall!
If ?uest or any other artist that I support tells me to "Get out my way" when I pay to see his ass and buy his records.... I tell you what, try that shit we me and get that ass served. If you don't want you fans to holla at you then find a new fucking job! As for you punk ass Okay Dickridders or should i say SHEEP. A real Oaky Player knows to speak his or her mind, regardless.

ps. To the person who posted this..next time punch him in his damn face or slap him with a CD. That will wake his as up or yull get your ass beat-hehe Either way, he'll think twice about it next time.
15071, Have you...
Posted by TurnstyleHopper, Fri Aug-10-01 01:06 PM
...ever not wanted to talk to someone?!? I mean fuck you got your performance that you paid for, your CD(s) that you paid for, and, unlike most artists, Questlove keeps it real with you and his other fans via his website for FREE!!! But just because you get/bought that shit, doesn't mean you bought Questlove and his fucking kind treatment. Damn! Since when did the rules of a concert state that you were supposed to hang out with the artists afterward.

God! I'm a moody ass person, and I'm sure alot of y'all are too. If some punk fan came up to you after a show and said some shit eqilavent to, "I can't wait for your next album to come out," when it came out a couple of months ago, what would you say? "Get out of my way!" I'd add "dumbass" to that.

Brothers always act like he (or any hiphop artist) should get a pass for treating someone like shit cause "he's a hard working artist" Fuck That! ok then, I work hard 5 days a week to help support they ass, so if I punch him in his face, I want be wrong then, right?

...you can punch him in the face if you want to, but, chances are, you'll get rushed and bodied. Look. I understand that fans deserve appreciation, but I think Quest goes out of his way to do more for his fans than most artists even consider. Smell me? Also, how do you "work" five days a week to support "they" ass? Just curious.

You think wrong!! Ahmir's head has gotten as big as his ASS! He does not go out of his way to do anything for fans. He's never done anything to me personally but I've seen him provide alot of shade. There isn't any reason in the world to be rude to fans. If he's having a bad day he needs to control that shit. That's part of the job. His ego is way out of control. I'm not going to front like he isn't a good musician. He's the shit when it comes to the drums. Love his work (especially on Erykah's album) but his attitude sucks ass to the pink part. Stop making excuses for him.

...it should be called the "fanatic" board because every crazed fan, who doesn't get treated how they expect they should get treated, throws a pussy fit. Fuck it. It should be called the "pussy fit fan board." I mean do you have a fucking right to Questlove's kindness? And like WallyChamp said, you did fucking say, "I can't wait..." when that shit came out forever ago. I'd be pissed if I were Questlove and you said that shit to me. Think about it. Do your research on "your" group before making dumb statements like that.

maybe it's just about people being kind. i don't really expect people to be nice all the time but it makes me happy when they are. it shouldn't really matter if you're favorite artist was not kind to you, but as a person it should.

people should also remember that sometimes people are going through other situations that put them in bad moods. you can't always help how they're feeling and you also can't fault them

he didn't say that he actually spoke those words to quest, he said that he wanted to: "i had my hand out to let him know how much i can't wait..." So I doubt that's the reason he was treated the way he was. Either way, it's still not a big deal.

Posted by Jaharrah, Fri Aug-10-01 01:47 PM
But wtf would you do if u went to the supermarket and the cashier said that to you?- he/she has prolly been through hell all day and rarely hears that they are appreciated and I would snap, cause u know what I pay to be treated well. And i do not give a damn if I am in the store to buy a 50 cent candybar-let alone a $20 cd $60 concert tix. Certainly being paid to do what you love should be motivation enough to treat people kindly. I do understand that he is human and has bad days but I am a nurse and worked on labor and delivery getting cursed out, kicked, and spit at on occasion but I was there and paid to confort those women so my personal shit had to be left at the door. I stay away f/folk when I feel angry especially those I know will want to hold long conversations.

People including myself admire ?uest and should not have to apologize for wanting to express it to him on what may be the only time we ever get to meet him. I find him to be very handsome and well spoken but short tempered and egotistical-it's ok ?uest it's a Capricorn thing-I know. ?uest is a "big boy" and can defend himself.

I had a similar experience and it was backstyage after a concert and even Mr. L looked shocked at how ?uest responded to me. I wanted to ask him to sign a cd for my little girl who is 9 and absolutely in love with him but I was so surprised by his tone that I left it alone.

Venting here is the only realistic way the person can tell him how they felt. Damn don't you think he gets enough ass kissing to confort him after a little kick? ;-)

...aren't those service related professions where you are paid to be kind? I guarantee that not all of the owners of those hospitals and supermarkets are nice. They provide the demanded product and don't have to be. Questlove's music is more of a product than a service. Nahmean? Anyway, you got where I was coming from. I understand that it hurts your feelings, but, sometimes, that's just life. (That came out way more pessimistic than I had intended for it to.)

Okay good, i thought it was just me, but i don't usually post to his threads cause i think that there on some "insiders only" type vybe. He usually writes his shyt all in some coded secret society type flava so i can't respond to some shyt that seems like it's an inside joke.
But to stay on topic, let's all cut the fuckin bull shit here. I don't give a fuck if you sold 2 million albums or if you sold 1 album (the one your mama bought) there is no reason to talk to someone like that. I don't think the original poster is a fanatical fan but that shyt really sucks when you simply want to show dap to your favorite artist and they treat you like shyt. Now i remember why i rarely to never compliment artists or pay their asses any mind when i see them cause them muhfucaks really be feelin themselves, YEAH I SAID IT !!! Take it how you want it !! :) (That's for all the phony ass quest fanatics who act like he's fuckin Hailbob and shyt !!!)

I gotta say that hen he was in san Diego he was MAD BUSY backstage but I still saw him being VERY couterous to pople and signing autographs.

I have to say that the Quest that i've seen (and I've been to MANY Roots shows) has been BEYOND couterous. And EVERYONE else in the crew too. These are some NICE folks. If you got dissed coz you were laying in wait to "get some love" you got off easy.

I KNOW how hard it is when someone who you like and respect their music turns out to be a human with having a bad day. But you DO NOT know what is going on in his head. Maybe he had to take a shit real bad. Maybe his dog died. Maybe he was tired.

So I'll give you the beneift and admit you aren't Stan, or some crazed stalker, but you gotta give Quest, the MAN, Ahmir Thompson some slack too.

You are an unreasonable person with a small brain and less time to use it.

Artist do not owe you SHIT.

The artist in question here even pays BILLS so you can rant your codewords without providing any sort of logic or evidence supporting your cause.

What I'm hearing is one guys ying Quest treated HIM impolitely.. And I see at least 5 others saying quest treated them with respect and love. Why would that be DICKRIDING or an unreasonable defense? It sounds like people sharing there experiences. sounds like many more people got love from quest. Sounds like Quest was in a hurry that one day. He didn't SLAP the dude, or shove him, or spit on him. He didn't say FUCK YOU DUDE, then turn to some women and chat for an hour.

Sounds like you are just a punk bitch who feels he has a RIGHT to complain . And your premise that people on this board are so brainwashed that no matter what happens they will never be able to see the INJUSTICE that has occured is ultimately self defeating. Your premise supposes there will never be a solution. Doesn't sound like you even have a solution. You just want to defend the meek and defenseless who have been so terribly wronged and the blamed for being the victim.

1st of all, the show had nuttin but "Jitts" there or you don't know what a Jitt is well it's short for Jitterbug, youngins, kids, chillren, snot noses that should have been at home.

2nd of all, if you were standing side stage you were in the wrong place. I see that you don't know proceedure for shows. walking past half of the crowd is out for security purposes ANYWHERE. Security at that joint was lax when they walked in that's why he didn't stop.

it's funny that after the concert I walked right up to him and asked him to sign My Philadelphia Experiment Cd you know the one that you are waiting to get the same one that has been out for two months now. He said straight up "Follow Me" thanked me three times for buying the joint. See that's what happens when you're in your 30's and you know how to act. get ya shit right youngin.

I bet you didn't know that it is traditional jazz aaaaah nope not your speed!

Okay they weren't at home and fact remains they paid to get into the show just like you did and therefore he could've at least gave the person a pound and kept shyt movin, shyt not even a pound at least a fuckin head nod.

I mean shit, I get in bad moods, I dont wanna see people sometimes, as long as they still make tight music I dont really care whether they give me dap or have time to listen to me say thanks or whatever.
It's nothing to get hurt about.

Posted by Chike, Fri Aug-10-01 08:58 PM
It is the weaknesses of human nature that people get moody and that's why a buncha people on here are quick to defend ?uest for his actions. I cannot defend his actions. Because it is also human nature to be offended when someone disrespects you. WHY CAN'T PEOPLE UNDERSTAND THAT?

If someone says "Get out of my way" to you, it feels bad. Maybe you have skin of steel, but I don't - you say that to me when I come to give you props, I will feel like you are not a nice person. I, Chike, do not suddenly feel that ?uestlove is a bad person contrary to my previous beliefs, etc, etc., because I read this post. But I understand where the guy who made the post is coming from.

And that is the FUNDAMENTAL problem with most people who have responded to this post in a disagreeing manner. They want to school the person on the hardship of life as an artist and concert etiquette and common sense and so on and so on... but they have not even thought about whether they appreciate people being rude to them. If they did, they would sympathize with the guy instead of attacking him, even if they did follow up their sympathy with "however..." and info about the hardship of life as an artist, etc.

Posted by qoolquest, Sat Aug-11-01 12:19 AM
not that i get this all th---


hang on.

do y'all really really really think i told someone "GET OUT OF MY WAY?!"

come on now.

i'm not even touching this one.
15107, then again on second thought........
Posted by qoolquest, Sat Aug-11-01 01:03 AM
i just read all the responses.

this is some serious shit.

for starters, i'm kinda glad that this wasn't a 300 vs. 1 beatdown to the original poster. i guess you had to give this person the benefit of the doubt.

...but then again i'm kinda pissed that most of you assumed that "i was having a bad day" and "that's just how it goes". call it a flaw, or god syndrome or something scientific...i can't call it. but in the history of my professional career i can go for the record in saying that i have never dissed a f..i don't even like that word--a person.


period.

i break my ass for people. sign til i get arthritis in the freezing cold, smile for the camera no matter how bummy i feel, not to mention most of the favors/etc that at least 300 of you can vouch to at one level or another.

---actualy i think the post that dissapointed me the most was the person who called me an egomaniac.

where the fuck did that come from?

i will be the first to admit that i am the world's biggest aloof person. straight up mr. magoo shit goin on here. i could be thinking about changing the show, recording differnt strokes, did i leave my key, will riq like this beat? anything.

i am not stuck up. just pre occupied.

or sometimes people mistake shyness for some arrogant shit. and i am more shy than aloof. if i go into the supermarket and know that all eyes are on me, then maybe i do look at the floor too much.

but please....what y'all thinking im saying? this?!!!!!!

"these dickhead motherfuckers....the fuck they want?"

now back to the matter at hand.


when are the 3 times when i prefer to be left alone?

only 3.

-i do not like it when people interrupt me while i'm djing. i'm working and quiet as it's kept....this is the only time of the day (besides drumming) that i get absoulute relazation.

so was it here when you spoke to me?


-15 minutes before the show i'm in deep space 9 concentration. show has to be great. i'm studying audience, show, what my solo will be, the humidity, air, how much water i'll need....etc.

was it here when you spoke to me?


-right after the show. i need 15 minutes cool down. blisters, splinters, and cramps. for 2 hours plus this is what i feel on stage. not to mention every itch that i can't get scratched, all the sweat that goes into my eyes, all the heat....i need a cooldown period. now since we had no dressing room i ran straight to the bus. made a beeline.

was it here then?

again. don't wanna get long winded. if your feelings got hurt, sorry. i try to take time out and do all that i can. perhaps i didn't hear you (oh god...am i quoting "stan"?) or see you.

but for god's sake.

i swear. i would. and have never ever ever said "get out of my way".


come on now.


ps. and before the "awww bullshit quest, don't act like you all above being rude and shit!!!!...just last week...." shit comes. mind you i said i would never say or do this....

now...if you try to provoke me or fuck with me.....

that's another story.

...thanks for clarifying that ?uest. Damn dude you go through a lot while on stage! Didn't know so much went into your half of the performance(s)((...excuse my ig'nance)). Well at least we half something in common, we both don't like to be bothered while dj'ing!!!

...My girl and I read what the original poster wrote, and was like "...damn that cat Ahmir must of had a bad bus ride..". She was like "...Maybe one of his many twelve inches got stolen!.." jokingly of course. Well what ever i'm venting now....

This guy is out of his mind.

I went to the Boulder show a couple of days after the Phoenix show. ?uest was running some errands before the show and getting something to eat and saw me waiting outside the club. He came up to me and put HIS hand out to me to say "what's up?"

He's the man when it comes to being a real person...that original poster was a nut.

Anyway, I was wearing a ring and didn't realize it until after we hit fists...I hope I didn't cause any discomfort...

big up to ahmir and the crew for giving us their best, even when it's 2AM and they're playing on the slot machines in Vegas after a show (hehehe).

I don't know man. ?uest never seemed that way to me. When I was leaving Filo's one night he was on the steps. I was trying to look at the steps so I wouldn't bust my ass. He was like what's up in a friendly tone. So I replied yo and kept climbing the stairs. So from one experience when we came face to face, he seemed pretty friendly to me.

Posted by LaDieMeCCa, Sat Aug-11-01 10:41 AM
After that Chuck Berry story, I don't think ?uestlove would ever be rude to someone who admired his music. Period. Maybe you mistook him for Skee-Lo who's probably still very angry after not making another "I wish I were a little bit taller" track. I confuse them all the time.

Posted by chyne, Sat Aug-11-01 01:27 PM
TO EVERYONE OF YOU ON THIS BOARD WHO HAD THE AUDACITY TO DEFEND QUEST DISRESPECTFUL BEHAVIOUR, GO STRAIGHT TO HELL!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

How can you sit up there and justify ill treatment? And to the JACKASS who said that Q don't owe anyone shit, when did the author say that? It's like when you say good morning to some one, you would like them to respond. Any self respecting person with pride and many of you on here lack that, would not be pleased with being ignored, or in this cases brushed off harshly as was in this case. The time he took to say, "Get out of my way", he could have said, "Thank You" and kept on walking. That was three words less. Like someone said if you don't like the business because of the people then you don't need to be in it. This goes with the territory. Music is a communicator. When you make music that pleases people, they want to meet you and know you.

When D'Angelo was doing a signing in Macy's in New York, I was very interested to go. Before I went, I asked the people if I would get a chance to speak to him because I did not want to jut get an autograph, infact, an autograph was of no interest to me. What was of interest to me was meeting the genius behind, "Brown Sugar" and "Voodoo". When I got to meet him, he was very gracious, and it made my day for months and months. I talked about to my best friend so much she had to ask me if I did something with him that I keep on talking about it. For that D' will forever have my respect, because not only is he a master, he is a master who took the time to talk to me. I will say, in observing him, it was grueling for him meeting all those people but he still kept a good front.

Why then can't Q'uest have some manners. Yes, there may be those that had good experiences with him. Wonderful for them. But this individual did not. So what should he have done, come on here, talked about how he was dissed and be very pleased???

Keep it up Q'uest. There is an African adage that says that when a lizard cuts it's tail, it soon grows another. Keep treating people like dirt, the day will come when you won't have anyone to tell to get out of your way. Why? Because there will be another group that is bigger and badder and they won't be thinking of you.

There, I've said it so curse all you want. That's my 2 cents!!!

15125, I once had a dog...
Posted by Brownsugar, Sat Aug-11-01 02:34 PM
This dog was a toy terrier. I would have to take this dog pretty much, everywhere I went, because if I didn't, he would bark up a storm and disturb my neighbors. I would get questioned and harrassed, severely, everytime I had the dog with me. I would get asked....

-"How old is he or she"
-"What's his or her name"
-"Is it a girl or a boy"
-"May I rub him"
-"Is she spayed"...If the dog took a shit or piss...people were watching. I would have a difficult time, getting where I was trying to go because of the questions. Imagine yourself...You got a headache, or the craps or you are just tired and you are constantly being asked the same questions, over and over again. I once took the dog to "The Taste of Chicago", with me; because I knew that I would be away from home for a while. I ended up leaving "The Taste" without eating anything, because I was being harrassed about my dog.

One time, I was really in a hurry, and a lady with two little girls came up and started petting my dog. I cold snapped on them!!! I did it before I even realized it. Later, I felt very bad about what I did, because I really love children and would never do anything to hurt them.

Most of the time, I did not mind the attention that me and my dog got, but at other times, it was pure torture!!! I really got a chance to, somewhat, see what celebrities go through and since then, I am careful about approaching them. If they seem to be in a good mood and don't mind signing an autograph or saying, "hello"...then I will pursue.

To "numberone"...I was not there, and I really don't know what happened; but one thing that I can say is that ?uestlove did come to your post and explain himself...he said that he did not do it. I really don't think, you could ask for better!!!

15126, Last night I ran into Quest
Posted by jefleejohnson, Sat Aug-11-01 05:06 PM
Saw him at the chucky cheese pizza place watching the animatronic puppets sing "U got me" Of all the songs in the world they be singing that?

So I had to introduce myself. I jump up on the table cuz this is Questlove right? He is chill like that. He will think its hysterical. So I stand right in his pizza and I say "WHATS up man I am so down with okayplayer can you sign my chucky cheese placemat" I wanted it signed kind of graf style So I show it to him how Id like it signed

All of a sudden Dude got mad grabbed my placemat and said "MF I am trying to eat ya standing in my pizza dude get out of my space you okaypunk" Throws the placemat almost hittin one of the animatronic puppets in the process.

I was taken aback I thought Quest was the coolest person.

I said "Easy guy I was just saying sup"



then I ask if Quest minded if I got a photo with him and Chucky Cheese.

But by that time MR Ahmir QuestSour had ticked off the fine Chucky Cheese Pizza establishment.
Apparently you are not allowed to curse and stand in somebody's pizza and throw their placemat. Thats three violations. So not only does Quest kick us out he points his finger and says "Thanks for ruining my evening"

Ya right Buddy you ruined my evening. Just trying to get a pizza.

Whether he was shady or not, I don't know. However, it kills me in general when artists act as though they don't have time enough to sign autographs or give back love. They know the minute they wake up, and no one knows their names, they will feel shitty. Just put Questlove in Hammer's shoes. Dude is doing credit commercials now. My point is, everyone has bad days, but just remember who exactly makes it possible for you to live a decent lifestyle doing what you love...the fans.

Ahmir-please do not take offense but I am Muslim and prefer to refer to you by your Arabic name when I am being "serious"-I did not call you an Egomaniac I said you were Egotistical and for that I do not apologize. Everyone can display this trait at one time or another-I have which is why I said I know from experiance. I am also a Capricorn and we tend to be career driven-that is what I was referring to. I am sure that you work your ass off for cats when you choose too-we all do-and guess what we do not all have jobs we love or a group of people who will attack others if they express dislike for something we do. I agree that the original poster has every right to vent but from now on maybe you should send an email directly to Ahmir so that you do not feed into the personality worship I see in some of these posts and he does not have to try and remember where he saw you and basicly make you appear dishonest. Although I recognize that he may be the person paying for this site-I pay for mine too and I cannot expect my cuustomers to feel indebted to me because they come to my site and buy or are exposed to my products. I am thankful to have a medium as vast as this to market from. And I get postings from people who do not always agree with my methods. I do not see it the same as if they came into my home and disrespected me. I take what I can use from the posts and if there is any validity to them I may change something.

After my experience I read the D' tour diary and saw what happened the rest of the evening and it eased my feelings of "rejection". My friend said that he actually looked at me with disgust and was backing away as he was shaking my hand and by god, someone introfuced us again which was definately a Class A felony. This introduction called for a very stern reaction that surprised the entire group. So I put my funky little cd back in my purse and got the fuck on. Reading the diary entry did not negate the experience but it made it less stinging. OK puting the drama queen back in my pocket :-). I have already said too much.

Anyhoo-I appreciate that Ahmir answers posts and definately respect his choice not to just blow the original poster's feelings. I will still enjoy his music and get whatever positive benifits there are from socializing with the nice people I have met through this site-hopefully I will contribute some posiitivity too.

Mentally noting that I will not come back into this post so I can endure insults from people who do not know me-I will save my apologies for having an opinion for my preist.

Posted by jefleejohnson, Sun Aug-12-01 04:16 PM
anything remotely funny about this post?

Not the story but the fact the dude doesnt know Philly Experiment was released near 2 months ago and he said he ran into quest last week.

The fact bro didnt see the flash ads. I dunno maybe he missed it but theres a site bro and theres soundclips at cdnow. Just so you know. I'm not gonna pass judgement on you for that. I can see how that might happen. But you said you are a big fan.


The album is out maybe you need to check this site more than once and tell us a suspect story drawing to conclusions that Quest is a typical crabby celebrity and ungrateful for his fans. Because what do you want us to say ? There is nothing to say.
He said "Get out of my way" maybe he was in a hurry maybe he was carrying gear or maybe he wanted to go sleep. I dont know.

okay so maybe i am a little biased
but i remember the first time i met quest, it was in the basement of the bowery ballroom in ny, and he was so cool to me even with a million people trying to talk to him

and it was not because i am an absolutely beautiful black queen :-)
because he was also nice to my brother and cousin

even in the pouring rain he stopped to pose for a picture

and even in a foot of snow he made sure no one stole my autograph pen

he even gave me the drumsticks he used at the bowery shoe ( when they were recording for "the roots come alive")

so i have to disagree with him not being a nice guy
he is really cool and has never been rude to anyone i know

peace

Posted by guest, Mon Aug-13-01 06:10 AM

As are the rest of The Roots. I've talked to just about every single member (except Malik B of course) and they are always talk to me like i'm exactly what i am....a person that digs their
music.

A few weeks ago i saw Hub standing outside the Park West trying to catch a cab. He had just got finished doing a set with Jag as we pulled up. I looked over and just said whats up to him. He came over to MY car and extended his hand to ME. We talked for a minute and i went on my way. My point is, is that they are just people that get paid to do what they like. Their not gods and they know this.

Quest puts out for his fans (not like that yous perverts). I have never seen him give a half arsed show, or be rude to ANYONE. Then again i might have blinked for a sec and missed it....

Of course i'll be accused fo dickriding, but so what....

Our deepest fear is not that we are inadequate

You are a child of God
Your playing small doesn't serve the world
There is nothing enlightened about shrinking so that other
people won't feel insecure around you
We were born to make manifest the glory of God that is within us

It is not just in some of us: It's in everyone
And as we let our own light shine
We unconsciously give other people permission to do the same

As we are liberated from our fears
Our presence automatically liberates others

Posted by Superwit, Mon Aug-13-01 07:35 AM
I have met the roots on more than one occassion and each time the group has been more than friendly, especially ?uest. When I chatted with ?uest, he introduced himself as Amir, and then introduced all of his friends to me. Never has anyone been so nice and respectfull when they have people around them trying to shake their hand.

I am not trying to make excuses but everyone is entitled to a bad day and people in general shouldn't take everything to heart all the time. I am a passionate person, especially when it comes to music, but you gotta realize the shit the the roots go through everyday and just brush off ?uest's passing you by as a small little thing.

everybody is entitled to be a human being. "good" or "bad" human. and the person receiving the feeling will respond/react how they feel it.

i perform, and i go into zones, too. i understand that, quest.

BUT

what you did to my brother was above and beyond bad. Yeah, this is Mindbender, from Supreme Being Unit. I KNOW he was in the wrong in the beginning, and was persistent. BUT, AFTER THAT, YOU TOOK IT INTO YOUR OWN HANDS. YOU disrespected his humanity, and love for the Roots. Did you even HEAR his music yet? I dont come here regularly, but i think i will start again. that was ONE FAN/PERSON you did treat horribly. sure, it ended his contact attempts, but that was the worst note to end on.

if yall have the OneWorld magazine with Common (i think, i havent read it in a while, it hurt my soul... its Com or Erykah) on the cover, you'll see the story in which Quest and Co. take revenge on an overbearing person. Maybe the audio (-in which you called my mom's house-) is still up on the site...

regardless... he is better now. and you'll be hearing from us, sometime soon... actually, i gave my new project to Kweli at Rocksteady... ask for it, if you want to hear SBU in 2001...

we are all allowed to be imperfect creatures, of course... but i just hope that the situation in which my twin brother and I became painfully personal with the Roots (WITH MR. TARIQ TROTTER AS WELL) is the WORST thing you have done to a listener...

your brother? the motherfucking stalker of the century?!?!
the main reason why i even fear for my safety now-a-days?
probably the reason why i run for cover after shows?
you mean the reason why the rest of my band avoids most okayplayers?
you mean the reason why i had to give up my beloved pager cause his stupid ass kept calling and raising my bill?!?!
you mean the dude that told me he would keep calling? and calling? and calling?!?!?!?
the reason why my management wouldn't accept a show in vancover for about 2 years?
you mean dude whose near suspect homo erotic psycho ass messages i had to erase (at least 7 times in spurts) off my machine so that the people in my life who matter call me could have room to leave messages?
you mean the reason why i don't give my number out anymore to cats who wanna "know about business and politic"?
FUCK YOUR BROTHER!!!!!!!!!!!!!


what? you saying it like i should be bullet proof and just give him a chance. and somehow i ruined his life. i don't know this nigga from adam! damn right he deserves every drop of humiliation. i gave dude an inch, and he invades my privacy. that is straight up wrong.

WHO THE FUCK ARE YOU??? i dont rock a backpack, i quit smoking beedies long ago, and i never have had a kuffi.

you just dont know shit.

man, in time, you too will have your ignorance blown out of your skull when you hear the music we make. it IS on a level very similar to the Roots. that's why the person was so eager to get Quest's love.

but, pray tell, what do you do with your life? anything that is a contribution to our society?

or are you one of those online, cynical, jaded, self-rigteous, know-it-all motherfuckers that plagues North American cities in 2001?

get off my dick.
you dont even know how dope our music is.

This story seems a bit contrived, I don't know...I'm not jumping to conclusions though, because celebrity doesn't make one perfect. But ?uest coming to your post and apologizing should show you that he would never intentionally hurt or disrespect his fanbase. Understand that, accept it, and keep listening.

On a side note: I love the Roots, and they are my favorite band. I have been to many a show, and I checked out this site because of them. However, I've never been compelled to 'wait sidestage for half an hour' to catch a glimpse of ?uest's glistening 'fro, or to squeal while I hug Black Thought...LOL

Point is, get a life, enjoy the show, and stop bitching. There's nothing more depressing then an emotional ass mofo. What was ?uest supposed to do? Give you a private percussion performance? Hmm? Hmm?

AAAAAHHHHHHHHH!!!!! All 100,000 posts to this thread can be summed up in the above words. I couldn't have said it better myself. Just take celebs for what they are--human, and leave it at that. Accept that bro's apology (if that's what it was) and get the fuck on...I have a sincere love and deep admiration for every member of The Roots, but unless I am somehow part of the stage crew, you will never catch me backstage, sidestage, or by the bus. If I get a pound or a dap, I'd like to know it was spontaneous (passing on the street or some shit as opposed to waiting hours in the wings for a glimpse), and not rehearsed, planned---and FANned.

By reading these posts, I must say I agree with some things and others I do not.

Alot of you have met Quest on a positive note but that does not mean that this incident couldn't have happened!

The poster said he wanted to ask Quest about the philadelphia experiement (which means he didn't get a chance to say it),
So because he didn't know about when it was released does that make him satan?

Ok, I realize that brother Quest Is busy and has alot of things on his mind but, (THIS IS HIS PROFESSION), He's gonna encounter fans whether they follow his rules or not(Three times he does not want to be approached,)So should they be mis-treated because they don't know this?

He may not remember the incident because you can't remember them all but, it's highly unlikely that he may encounter this fan again under the same circumstances and A simple "hi" or "wassup"
and moved on would've sufficed!

Quest did defend himself Or answer on his own behalf(And that's the way it should be!) So, that seems honorable to me!

Hopefully, questions have been answered and we can all move on!

Posted by guest, Tue Aug-14-01 07:36 PM
I am so sorry that you have mistaken Quest for being shady he probably said "hey" to you and you mistook it for "get out of my way", some people just hear what they want to hear, cuz I doubt that he said that to you.
All of my encounters of Quest have been very pleasant after his concerts when I know he was very tired from his performance.

But it is not like he needs to explain himself to anyone, You just be you boo!

Here is my remix to the hook You Got Me that I made for the hater!
Baby don't worry bout-what these lames have to say-cause I got your back-they can just go away,
Baby dont worry you know that you got me!

Posted by Apostle, Tue Aug-14-01 10:31 PM
That perhaps that's not what he said...
That he was talking to someone else...
That you were standing in his damn way...

Whatever the case may be why do you bring this shit all up in his website. Are you trying to warn others form trying to meet him? What is your point. Did you want an apology? I understand that your feelings were hurt but to go to somebody's crib and shit on thier lawn is not cool. I think that is just as foul as what your saying happened to you. I have met ?uest and I can say he treated me like fam. I don't think what you say really happened, nor do I think you're lying, I'm just thinking your speaking on what you percieved.

You all cant expect anybody you dont know, celeb or not, to just act completely normal and buddy buddy when they have some random person come up to them and say hi. At the same time, I wouldnt think it hard for them to be kind in return, but we shouldnt go all extreme one way or the other. Just like anybody else, famous people do have bad days or just times when they dont know what to say. I met quest up at harvard early in the year, and thought he was a very nice guy and completely accomodating. There is only so much a person you dont know can do to act like they are really interested in everybody they meet.
