Black Thought can sing

[trulypimpinhard]

Original song is by Bobby Womack...Later covered by New Birth..Get it right folks

[iaintmadatcha]

Black Thought is that nigga! mans got talent to burn !!!!!

[djzaire]

The Roots definitely should do a full cover of this song or I hope they include it on a future live release album. Great stuff!

you know it would be less effort for both me to read and you to type if you would just type like a normal person.

[hassinklaker]

They're great, I got the drumsticks from Questlove!

[ThaOriginalJ]

does this song have a title?

I am lovin' it!

[nukki1]

2nd that....i just been callin it the "funky $hit" ?uest is hurtin those drums!!

man this is so funky

[Akinwale1]

its a james brown tune, somethin like put it on a love or soemthin

[Andromaches]

This is a cover of I Can Understand It, written and originally performed by Bobby Womack. New Birth did a cover of it and The Root's version is based on THAT cover.

[ericsaywhaat]

they do this song on vh1 soulstage, its really good. check it out if you can

[leshaun99]

I saw them in concert. They're the best Hip Hop act...hands down!!!

[TheBootCamp]

agree 100%, the Roots were the best performers I have ever seen live, not just playing their own tunes, but all the covers and random jamming makes it so great. True talent!

[texasaggie85]

check out his cover of Kool G Rap's 'Men at Work'.. he kills it

[mashakira]

Noone can touch the roots live!

[mhaze210]

The Roots live is unbelievable. 1st time i met Knuckles and Cptn Kirk...so it was a huge bonus. the 2nd time i was 3 rows from the stage, and when they were done i walked up and somehow got to shake Black Thoughts hand....later that night, Erykah Badu walked into audience while singing....and she walked up to me, and took my hand so i could help her stand ontop of my seat lol....it was great. very cool show.

[nyggadyma]

MAn i was there too...

That was NICE

[belmie]

damn i gotta see the roots live!

[lilmartmar]

best concert i've ever seen in my life. So much fun. My brother knocks me cus i've seen them 3 times but i say fuck it. It'd be stupid to pass them up when they come to town.

[illavibez]

Best live performers in hip hop, hands down. nuff said. Would see them a million more times.

[italia10588]

im pretty sure all the dudes in the roots can sing/play whatever they want.

Either way this is a damn good jam. This is why I love the roots. They live up to their name.

[Applebaum]

yeah they can do anythik they like! I saw them play abit of Led Zep and then when into some 70's funk one of the best bands live

[Drewb18c1]

dude, this is exactly what i love about the roots so much. their studio work has produced one great hip hop album after another...and then you see them live, which is when you realize what geniuses they are. i saw them at bonnaroo 07 and it was indescribably amazing. theyve created this wonderful jazz/hip hop fusion that i know i'll be seeing again

[kehhoagland]

all the Roots went to a performing arts school here in Philly. no doubt he can sing.

[toast1985]

Without a doubt, the most talented on stage rap performer, although that isn't saying much. Definitely a top MC though.

[Yatoo77]

i saw him in paris with talib kweli..no doubt he can sing

[nikkiscarfo]

damn, musical genius

[bdcmc]

lol someone saying that is bobby womack! dude is like 64 years old, and those who say its not black thought obviously haven't seen the roots live, that is BT come on yall!

[bigshawnnn]

no.. that is black thought.. hence ?uestlove and the rest of the roots in the background. i seen him sing a few lines at the roots show this year in australia.

[wootrox]

that was definitely Black Thought.

[KingNaphtali]

That definitely is Black Thought. I was there. Pre Grammy performance at the Key Club in Hollywood. Craziest Hip Hop show I ever seen.

[CR00K]

Sorry to bust you guys bubble...but that's not Black Thought. It's Bobby Womack.

But yes, Black Thought is the greatest of all time.

[rtask]
