3034338, Verzuz was never really meant for the mainstream

It's for the culture. So MTV spins is not the determinant.

I haven't even gone deep into Roots albums since Phrenology, so I KNOW I'm missing shit, but DYWM, IH, and TFA have A LOT of bangers, with Tribe, Com, Mos, Kweli, Beans

Roots deadly advantage is of course Tariq Trotter.


Guerilla Monsoon Rap
Respiration Remix
Super Lyrical


It cannot be overstated how he has only gotten better and better. His 10 minute freestyle has 14 million views. Streams of Thought have ridiculous fire and dope guest appearances. His series of guest appearances are verse of the year caliber, often making great rappers look fucking average.

The Imperial
Bird's Eye View
Crowns for Kings
Rap on Steroids
Wishin' (remix)
Rapid Eye Movement
Roman Candles
Ishkabibbles
Education

Catalog is too long too strong.
