After listening to that audio....I felt like Black Thought really played the bitch move. He made it so clear that he wasn't there for the taping of the Jay-Z Unplugged, and that it was a project he wasn't involved in.
But the thing is....that's your fucking band. How the hell are you gonna get on Hot97 and half represent your crew? True, YOU weren't there...but the Roots were. Whatever decisions your family makes, if they truly are with good intentions, back that shit the fuck up!
And I understand that with "What They Do" the director basically distorted the premise of the video to make it seem like a direct dis towards artists, but YOU WERE there. You sat on that bed with the chick a la Notorious B.I.G.
It's not like you DIDN'T know what scene THAT was from.
?uest would have been the better person to speak on this situation on the radio. Cause for real....I don't even think Black Thought was feeling the Roots in his commentary.
Gotdamn shame.
