Would The Roots go gold without Questlove?
NOPE!
Would The Roots still get shows and be on late night without Black Thought?
YEP!

I just don't like the utter disrespect 40 gets around here.
He ain't pissed on no kids.
He ain't beat no women.
He ain't dated no white girls.
40 gets MAAAAAD love from Marshawn Lynch
REAL NIGGAS
TOWN NIGGAS give Earl Stevens love

this nigga been puttin out HITS since before Todd Shaw came out rappin bout betty givin blowjobs.

And again, if you search all most posts on this topic no one has come and given a list of credible BT bangers.

But let annnnny other artist be debated and you get LISTS ON LISTS ON LISTS
check the george clinton vs quincy jones post....LISTS
check the kanye TLOP post....niggas break out college dropout, 808s and all his other shit
drake?
they go back to so far gone

jay-z?
cmon yo!

in the movie Top 5 chris rock shouted out The Roots in his Top 5
but why?
yeah they brought live instruments to the game
but what about LYRICS???

every other PERSON in the Top 5 had LYRICS
it's cool that you teach a History of Hip Hop online course at Bowdoin and you're the hip hop somollier at 1Oak/Momofuku
but do your shit BANG???

anyhow, Top 5 shouldn't consist of only CHEESE TOAST rappers
didn't snoop already kick over enough of yall buildings?
