i've been a fan of the legendary for some 15 years..

a friend of mine, not a big hip-hop head, asked me to make him a Roots mix cd.

3 factors were considered:

1. a little from each album (organix didn't make it)

2. handful of essentials (Clones, What They Do didn't make the cut)

3. my personal favorites (many of my favs didn't make the cut like

Water, Ain't Sayin Nothing New, Rising Down, Respond/React, Star
