i'm in the painstaking process of trying to put together discographies for the okay artist sites, but i know there's stuff out there that i don't have on the list yet. so i'm gonna post what i have for each artist in a new branch under this post.
if you have anything to add for that artist, post it up.

note: i'm not messing w/ all the stuff ?uest/soulquarians produced right now. so for the roots section, just roots stuff. damn, now i need to explain what that means. eff it. we'll sort it out later.

"This is the kind of show people listen to in a more perfect world." - McSweeney's

There's a french hiphop song by the French Group IAM that features Rahzel, named "Dangereux". Akhenaton, from this group, produced also "Prime Exemple" from Talib Kweli. There's also another french group La Relève who did something together with The Roots, but I've forgotten the name of the song, maybe I find it somewhere..

The name of this EP is "Retour aux Sources." Roots crew members appear on 2 songs - "La violence (remix)" and "Phillystyle." Consequently, this is the only time that I've ever come across this French group (for any French heads who give a shit).

With regards to Razhel - he is not on the original album version of IAM's "Dangereux" (album - "L'ecole du micro d'argent"); he is on a live version that you can find on Napster.

Lastly, while were talkin' French hiphop, I know that Common did a song with a frog named Alliance Ethnik. THIS GUY IS A WACK ASS BITCH for those who don't already know. Nique sa mère. Peace.

uhm, look at the credits in "L'école du Micro D'argent", Rahzel is also on the original version, didn't he do the scratches in the refrain?

Vraiment? Hmmm...maybe I'm wrong, but I can't seem to find my liner notes. Merde. I'll take your word for it man. Sorry about that. Peace.

They want your name in the system,
I need to mention the death penalty is

People listen, they got teenagers up in

To fill the new facility they built,
they need the crime up
Please, the war on drugs is really war
on the youth
War on the people
War on the truth
The violent crimes rise,
the silent dies as sirens cry through
the night
People fight for what's left and not
what's right"

Actually, "Bend Ova" was the A side of that single, it was on his album (the B side was indeed just on the single).

But you're right, "Car Horn" wasn't the only one not on the compilation. I stand corrected.

"Police don't sweep to get the dust out
They want your name in the system,
I need to mention the death penalty is
legal lynchin
People listen, they got teenagers up in
the line up
To fill the new facility they built,
they need the crime up
Please, the war on drugs is really war
on the youth
War on the people
War on the truth
The violent crimes rise,
the silent dies as sirens cry through
the night
People fight for what's left and not
what's right"

-Talib Kweli

Peace,

VOODOO SOUL ESSENTIALS...

There is a group called Twice consisting of two sets of twin that recorded a version of Sparkle that was produced by D'Angelo and Angie Stone. It was distributed by Silas/MCA in 1997 and contains 4 versions. D is all over the joint, contributing background vox and it sounds like he's playing all of the instruments. (Has his signature rhodes/organ sound) There were promos of this single that surfaced before the album's cancellation. I have an extra cd copy and an extra 12" copy if anyone is interested.
