>Will the ROOTS be around after whites <BR>>no longer find it hip to like our culture?!? <P>I'll put it like this, I dont know if there would be an okayplayer.com if it wasnt for the switch to mca, but they survived 3 albums without gold sales before "you got me". All that matters is that they continue to make good music, not who sticks around for the ride, and who was just on the band wagon. Judging from this site there will always be a group of us who know the time. Ive been down since illadelph halflife (yes, clones was my "you got me" but ive been down ever since) I respect anyone of any race who can feel the music like I can, who gets a certain rush when they hear a song that they love to death. But the damn coffee shop cats, who just show up to be hip, and dont even get into the music and dont know a damn lyric who have too much money and time on on their hands, they get the bozack.
