  • what a tune!!!!!!! brilliant and timeless...

  • i'm trying to expand my knowledge of early hip hop. i like beats like this.... as well as a tribe called quest and biggie smalls. any suggestions?

  • Comment removed

  • @teriseopotamus bel biv devoe, de la soul eric b & rakim, and naughty by nature are good to start with

  • @teriseopotamus run dmc, grand master flash's the message is probably the earliest socially conscience hip hop song

  • man i think i love my wife

  • Awesome band

  • i listen to this at least 6 times a day.

  • one of the most talented live acts I have ever seen... for any genre... fucking brilliant they are live

  • @jwheyer22 agree....I've seen them three times

  • Wish there was more of this :(

  • NICE NICE NICE

  • tought this was a Simply Red.. so FAIL for me lol

  • @Italynine2 you silly cunt. this is a modern day classic. fucking simply red. knobhead. i aint even gonna dignify you by giving ya a thumbs down.

  • Hip hop is the worst, most talent less put together bullshit to ever hit the music world and it gets worse and worse. It was ok back in the day but it is played out and a mindrot today. Polka is better than hip hop. I like THE ROOTS cuz they see this fact as well. FUCK HIP HOP! WE HATE IT!

  • @samfrompasingtime Bra...wat chu talking about?...hip-hop use to be the dopest shit ever...hip-hop unite people in the world...it bring peace, freedom to people...dont confuse hip-hop with people like 50 cent, lil wayne etc -.-

  • @thespecialguy12 once upon a time. Yes. Sadly, no more.

  • @samfrompasingtime The roots = true hip hop. There is a clear distinction between this and radio shit although they both fall under the broad category of hip hop.

  • @GuramCracker It is a big difference. THIS is ok. Radio hip hop makes me want to kick a kitten though a house fan.

  • @samfrompasingtime strange....i also feel like doing that without any reason at all.

  • awesome

  • Loved this song since I was a kid, genuinely a masterpiece. My 12-year old little brother also loves it

  • ME ENCANTA ESTACANCIONNNN!!!!!!!!!!!!! TIENE ALGO QUE TE HACE MOVER LA CABEZA, LOS HOMBROS, LA CADERA Y LOS PIES :) y los brazosssss con alegria :D

  • @illalu14 blow me

  • 24 people don't know music...

    

  • sick

  • I heard this on a movie. I think it was takers.

  • i dont understand lack of views and any ONE person who dislikes this gem let alone 24 foo's......craz mon!

  • I remember the first time I listened to this. My mind was blown. Haven't looked back since.

  • please ppl, stop comparing hiphop to weezy!!!

    hiphop is the sun, everybody sees it arise at some point, pick your artists. To me the roots are still the illest to ever do it, big up to black thought who never forgot his roots. I am wondering where they and scott storch stand though?

  • god this song reminds me of so mcuh

  • i LOVE this song :)

  • i'm looking for a song i used to listen like 2 years ago and i only remember few things.. they were mentionning jesus in it ( in a funny way ), and it was a jazz - hip hop thing... i know their are not much infos, but if anyone figures what i'm talking about.. let me know :)

    thx !

  • can you talk more about that music

    ?

    i found many musics that i want.....

    maybe if you tell me something else i can help you....

  • if only i could .. when my mind is confused about a song, it generally don't give me many clues.. i only remember jazz guitars, a hip-hop which sounded like the roots style, and i think there was Jesus in the title of the song..

    not many clues but who knows .. youtube can do miracles

  • great shit !

    the roots know how to combine jazz an hiphip an make it sound great

    10/10

  • how can u not like this

  • This is awesome.

  • very nice song

  • kickass song

  • 1 of my fav song,it is so great by musicians,cody chesnutt is excellent to and the roots did his always great performance

  • The roots piss on loads of the mainstream and underground alike...

  • Are you serious? Your a fucking idiot.

  • How is this not music?Just because it's popular doesn't make it suck. I mean how else would it get popular stupid fuck. I listen to underground music too..O I get it your one of those faggots who create their image by listening to bands that nobody has heard of so you seem more diverse. Yeah your not lame or anything.

  • I understand that, none the less I still think this is a good song. Definitely not their best but I mean, It's still a good song. It's not horrible shit like you claim it is.

  • don't listen to him he's probalby the only one who doen't like this song

  • alright now, nothing is wrong with liking what you call "mainstream"... it is ALWAYS up to your own taste in this stuff, dont come here calling this "crap" because you simply dont like it, i hate fuckers saying something is crap when they dont like it themselves. "avoiding mainstream" would just backfire at you as well, wouldnt it? as if thats just trying to follow some kind of line there as well...

  • really? are you jokin'?

  • ♪i pushed my seed somewhere deep in her chest..♪

  • Perfection, They are legends after this.
