Real Talk With Questlove Of The Legendary Roots

[Sentinel2k1]

damn I never knew Questlove was so wise, Illadelph Halflife was their best album in my opinion I'm not a fan of the roots but that album made me a fan of Black Thought, very impressive mic' skills the others just don't do it for me there to "soft" in my opinion

[QueensBey]

@Sentinel2k1 Can't forget Malik B either. He also ripped it on Illadelph

[stunna4life06]

people buy into lifestyles though it feels like your supporting a movement wen your music has a lifestyle you connect more with your fans, im not sure if people are bicariously living through artist or jus living a similar lifestyle on a different probably smaller level

[namkooc]

i love the roots to death but couple of there records are questionable so no absolutly not 10 classic timless records like quest said

[EBeBIG]

@namkooc he never said that their 10 records were timeless.

king chyldz dontplay spreading love its the brooklyn way

[LexyAAA]

Nevermind I know the song ^o^

[LexyAAA]

Whats the song in the beggining?

[sovietsentinel]

I wish Questlove would make life choices for me... he seems incredibly wise! lol

I like how he sounds like every weed dealer I've ever known... "This is quality shit right here..."

If you think about it, if any other artist said something like that, you'd groan and call them pretentious. But with the Roots, they actually have like 10 quality records to prove it! Modesty is fine but you gotta rep your shit.

[SilentBombr]

Questlove always drops pearls of wisdom.

[JEDIJAKE93]

ok,,, Ive got 7 albums...

Do you want more?!?!?!, illadelph, Things fall apart, Phrenology, The Tipping Point, Game Theory, & rising down. which ones out of the ten am I missing?

[djhart25]

none really.. they put out these two compilations called Home Grown.. or something like that, but if you have all those albums, you already got all the songs that were on those ones.. Check the Best of the Roots mixtape tho.. got some DOPE unreleased shit on that

[jrwilsonUA]

you're missing Organix, The Roots Come Alive, and Home Grown! The Beginner's Guide to Understanding the Roots.

[mrdonovan213]

organix! pretty much what djhart said, homegrown is like all of that early stuff

[Empuls]

Organix (1st Lp)

The Ultimate (Ep)

[africanmaan]

i love that record man!!! pass the popcorn and leonard 1-5 are my two all time favs for the roots

[curtisb3000]

The most genuine Hip Hop group in Hip Hop now.

[AdrianBaxter]

...ever.

[iiiMiL]

Once a Roots fan always a Roots fans. All there albums are quality! What's ironic is that they got better from their 1st album on. it's usually the other way around.

[masscommlarry]

I got to see them for free over the weekend !

[Sentraman4]

how the fuck.... haha

[capncummings]

Thats the way with music. now adays it seems people have a hunger in any type of music when they come in. but after they get signed its like they HAVE to make an album instead of wanting or making quality. Like i like metallica but a couple of there albums are in real question of if they made it because they wanted to in my opinion.

[drummtb333]

the roots are my favorite band and i have all there albums but to me...the tippinmg point is questionable i mean stay cool dont say nothin and duck down or sick but its really missing something to me. it almost seemed sold out

[misMITU]

long live the LEGENDARY roots crew. questlove and thought are the illest. period.

[StinsoC]

ask yourself this Dollaboy 667...what can you do in any field or profession for more than 10 years and suck at it? These cats are 10 albums deep and I would put their live show up against any artist out today. Music is about growth and the Roots continue to do this at each outing plus they are a band as well.

[iokona360]

You talkin about The Roots?..

[iiiMiL]

Do ya homework, The Roots Bang everywhere!

[YaDigg999]

[getmoneystayreal]
