  • absolute rarity of a song this, it seems to be timeless...

    music is not made like this anymore....

  • ohhh lord why music is so beautiful...

  • blackthought went off on this joint, one of my favorite roots song and d'angelo is always nice...erykah badu too

  • I heard this back in 97' and have been looking for it ever since! Thank you so much for posting!!! Thank you so much!!!

  • Absoloutly flawless track, questlove is an awsome producer!

    What album is this off?

  • was looking for this but kept typing in hypnotic remix

  • Klassik! love this jam...Timeless.

  • This song would be so much better without the chick singin in it in the background. That part sounds like she was added at the last minute and tried to sing the best she could in just one take lol.

  • the whole men in black sound track was good. 90s were the best... so glad to be alive then

  • Love makes everything grow......

  • Apostrophe...not comma.

  • am in love with black thought

  • My Shyt! Gimmie some heels and a wet suit. I can WORK this piece!!!

  • Shining Star lyrics by D'Angelo. Amazing stuff

  • A classic, one of their best! The Tariq is so underated.

  • doesn't get any better than The Roots

  • I NEED THESE CHORDS

  • @dlight247 ask james poyser;)

  • @showdeez dont judge me...but i dont know who that is o_O haha

  • @dlight247 no i'm not :) hes the composer of the song...

  • Thanks SoulBrother for Share this! I put it in My Playlist and listen it everyday, from this day on. Peace

    Bring Hip Hop back on track

  • Good song but I don't think it can touch the original Hypnotic. That's my favourite Roots song

  • black thought is a true lyricist, he's got a gift from god

  • MADDCLASSIK

  • dangelo inspired 

  • This is rocking we need more.

  • Sweet fancy moses!

  • d'angelo is amazing, the roots are amazing..an interpolation of EWF's shining star on the chorus..quality song

  • the vibe is beautiful no Doubt

  • Blackthought's rhyming is on a whole other level.

  • anyone got this instrumental? im trying to make a smooth/mellow/chill instrumental cd for those car rides ...thx in advance!

  • They revisted an older Roots track with D'angelo called Hypnotic. If you listen to them together you will start to understand just really how ill Blackthought is as an emcee.

  • @NyleRaps shit all i had to do is have my neighbor play thelesson pt 1 for me when i was young boy to know how ill thought is

  • @NyleRaps Thought will be underrated until he leaves this planet, my man. It's a real shame. The man's birthed so many styles and showed MC's how to come proper over live instruments. Been following The Roots for more than a decade now and probably caught like two dozen shows already. I can't express how incredible Thought's improv skills are and how he keeps shit movin. It's like watching Miles Davis orchestrate a three piece band. If any of ya'll haven't seen them live yet, DO IT.

  • This is my favorite song by The Roots. <3

  • Guys, what is that song, when J pushes the RED BUTTON, and they going on the top of the tunnel with K in the black car, and K is putting that music in the radio? Anybody knows?

  • The Roots with D'Angelo & Erykah Badu! It's just too much! I Love it!

  • cool..
