the roots - what they do

[philhouse64]

isnt the lyrics "my delph more stealth" not "ive dealt more stealth"

[FRESHCOOLAIDE]

Love this joint.

[QubaLibre1]

OLD SCHOOL SHIT!

[lukelibunao]

Right after I heard the first verse, i favorited it.

[dreamsmoneybought]

the person who disliked this took this song too seriously... just this once do what they do and like

[HipHopIsDead0603]

They should remake this song and release it for all the new rappers out today

[shahara1985]

im like'n dis !!!

[Macfierce1]

given the state of modern music, this is probably the best band on earth right now. And i emphasize the word BAND!!! They are amazing.  They blend all kinds of genres of music. The play better live than they do on the record.

The Roots are utterly incredible.

[JBrewer4386]

The perfect example of Blending Hip-Hop and Jazz in the best way possible.

[DOCTOROFLUVV88]

Ah, real real music, the best there can be....HANDS DOWN SON!

[mottik123]

GRENADE..

[TheInfinite33]

Great sounds and beats, but most of all exposing those that sellout for money.

[afrikanthug101]

[Soul0705]

[jeiidjs]

[SlyVillin]

thumbs up for this song having no dislikes

[brion2010]

sadly,pimp c missed his mark in dissin these cats.what you are listening to here is a rarity in modern black music. Living,organic music,replete with the soul of its creators.This feels like music humans would make,not some pasturised program from a machine that has no intuitive feel for soul.

[cjack80]

Pimp C dissed the shyt outta these niggas....."what they do what they do/was corney as fuck you gets no play in Texas yo shit don't bump in the trunck"

[DoesNotExist305]

@cjack80 and exactly how many dope rappers come out of Texas? NONE.

[akaTRAP91]

@cjack80 Apparently, Texas doesn't know what real music is.

[djchuckdee12]

@akaTRAP91 More like san antonio on the real, man i tell you, they are so late in music. I been there way too long.

[akaTRAP91]

@cjack80 wait a minute, ain't that nigga Pimp C dead?

[vjvallance]

the guitar solo is impeccable, one of the greatest hip hop tunes of all time!

[streetthought]

this is not not "real" hip hop, its *HIP HOP* there is no other.. all that other shit out there has no relation to the principles of true hip hop like this work of art.

[FallenSpirit808]

@streetthought big up man, you said it right =o)

[jackkkkkkkkkkkkkable]

@streetthought wordd

[BeeSon80]

To I remeber buying this album from Avatar Records (R.I.P. Ray) in Radcliff KY. Been I real ever since I can remeber!

[696969696920]

Now that's real music.

[Luv2Sing8737]

Never doooooooooooooo what they do what they do what they do ooh

[shaudaci]

absolutely raf zemo.. you said it best ..'this is excellent music' got you on this 1

[lowendfella]

Listen-up! "Black-Thought" is holding a brainwashing session. Those of you who desire too free your mind of those ill-thoughts step-up, and allow the lyrics to wash that garbage away from your mind. It's time too utilize your own thinking; with pure positive energy flowing from the depths of your inner-visions. (Let's start creating once again!)

[master117gta]

real hiphop homie

[Kaydee07]

Check out an artist from Toronto by the name of Kaydee. He flipped The Roots "What They Do" and turned it into a crazy concept. The song is called Quick Plug
