Here we go...I cant say anything good without someone coming in and tearing it down? Did my post say that Game theory would be thier best album? Hell nah..I said that I heard it and liked it. I heard like 7 joints and they were good songs. I like the song they picked for the single! As far as the Will album I still listen to it....because I believe that he's a good mc. Was back then and still is now and the fact that i can see someone put that amount of work into something that he doesnt even really have to do anymore makes it that much better. I aint the say all and end all of of what's hot. But I like what I like. The difference with me is I dont come on here and post about shit I dont like ...yall do. If I didnt like Game Theory I would tell ? & Riq. I wouldnt tell you.

Yeah I got dreams...and all of em are in my backpack.

I was reading the new Scratch issue, and "Game Theory" sounds very promising. The Roots never disappoint, so even if it's not "as good" as whatever album people wanna compare it to, I'm sure it's not gonna even be close to wack, so as long as it's on the level of quality, I'll be happy. Can't wait for the first single, do you know the name of the song Skillz?

Coz according to Scratch their first single will be a song called "Can't Stop This", which is over Dilla's "Time: Donut of the Heart" beat, but then I also hear that it's gonna be a song called "Don't Feel Right", so I'm kinda confused.

they're going to use that one?

that's one of the weaker tracks from 'donuts' imho.

i thought they were going with 'workinit'? now, that's a dope beat!

They did record a song over the "Workinonit" beat too, it's with Dice Raw. Supposedly it'll be featured on the album, but the only difference will be that Mos Def is gonna be on the track with them.

I don't know if it's against regulations to drop links on this forum, so if you want a link to "Workinonit" with Black Thought & Dice Raw spittin heat, send me a pm.

the best is Anti-American Graffiti without a doubt. But Time is my shit too, that was my favorite on first listen. And the first single IS "It Don't Feel Right"

I can say with 100% certainty that "Donīt Feel Right" is the first single... shit, the video will be coming very soon too...

for those who canīt wait to hear it, go catch them on tour... itīs comfortably sandwhiched in their setlist between "donīt say nothin" and "next movement", probably for the long-run....

"children working, weapon producing, natural disaster got the planet in a panic!... we all gotta make that living... sex, drugs, murder, politics and religion... forms of hustling..."


damnit, i canīt wait for the studio version....

every interaction between two or more individual can be mapped out as a game with all possible outcomes that are determined in the playing of this game shall return a winner or winners and a loser or losers. A winning strategy or system can be created to find the correct steps to earn a W and avoid an L by forcing a stalemate.

it's not how you play the game...it's how the game plays you.

I'm just hoping it's my bag, because just because something is a well-done album doesn't mean I'm going to like it and I'd love to hear a brand new Roots shit that I can have on repeat all fall.
