The success of Outkast combined with the mythical commentary of the southern swing of the Okayplayer tour will surely grant the Roots the room to explore. (Mofos are still talking about the rock version of you got me)

The masses are growing…I think the music(mainstream) has pushed the limit of misogyny, dullness, non-visionary music to a point that people will begin to turn the ears away from the norm.

How many different ways can we talk about killing each other or how phat your leased BMW is the people will speak.

Blacks folks have never been monolithic…hence 3.billion dollars for BET.

The people are ready…hell my Moma even knows who the Roots are.

They should push on.

Having a record label is similar to enslaved Africans having fruit and veggie stands on plantations.
