wow shy you're beautiful!!
Deadprez are my favorite group in a long time and The Roots are a long time favorite. Its hard to slam either of them based on a moral decision that they decide to make. In the end, the art they create is theirs to distribute in whatever way they wish, they created and it is therefore a part of them. It is not for any of us to say how they should share themselves. Emotionally speaking I would love to see deadprez get together with artists like Talib, The Roots, Me'Shell, etc, but I won't stop listening to any of them if they decide not to work together. I hope, however that The Roots, Mos Def and Talib start recognizing groups like The Coup and start doing some projects with progressive cats like that.
