Video Music Box with no introduction.
The scene set for the video is very creepy and attention grabbing, I was glued to the screen waiting to hear something.
Tariq comes on and he has the vocab, he has the clarity, he has the confidence, and he was changing rhyme patterns effortlessly. It was pretty intense hearing him for the first time, I wanted to be that nice one day.
I was taken aback by the level of polish he had, especially since I was under the impression this is the Roots debut single.
