[Emelec18]

For some reason every time someone asks me to list my top 5 MCs the first one that comes to mind is black thought.

[KidZiLLah]

What is this called?

The first time i've actually heard the roots. I've always heard Black Thought though.

[blackkeychucktown]

@KidZiLLah Dont Say Nuthin' off the TIpping Point, check out Do You Want More!??!!?! for classic the Roots

[aiFresh96]

The Greatest of all time. They deserve to be called The Legendary Roots Crew. There is no other like them. I miss seeing Scratch with them though.

[KBoogs719]

i thought this was the don't say nothing remix, no wonder i couldn't find it forever

[fengrr]

?uestlove is the truth

[BCLrecords]

@fengrr get off quests dick..its a band

[fengrr]

@BCLrecords ?? I said quest is the truth... what?? are you on crack sir??

[ganjaplanta650]

@fengrr naw, u know whos THEE truth??? the Roots.

[nicky32290]

I can't believe this was in Electric Lady studios...I love The Roots, I love Dave Chappelle, and I love Jimi Hendrix...it's the perfect combo

[lecookdenyc]

Sick beats. I love this kind of jazz influenced hip hop.

[dbBosco1]

name?

[thebiglukebowski]

notice, no turntables, yet beatbox city, dude in red is bad, not bad meaning bad but bad meaning good, holy beatbox Batman, dude is raw

[Luckthedon7]

@thebiglukebowski OH YEAH SON HIS NAME IS SCRATCH, THAT KID IS A FUCKING HUMAN TURNTABLIST YOO.....

[thebiglukebowski]

notice, no turntables, yet beatbox city, dude in red is bad, not bad meaning bad but bad meaning good, holy beatbox Batman, dude is raw

[BAGAKOOS]

damn that dude in the red is a beast son!

[bjbjbzz]

Love these guys, it isnt a fake computer beat, it's real guys with real talents

[drummerboy74]

Couldn't agree with you more!!!!

[farbrorblo]

@bjbjbzz There is no less talent involve just cause people work with samples. Thats how hip hop was created. It was DJs looping is how hip hop began.?uestlove is king, but both him and me acknowledge the talent in producing, sampling and DJing. Do you? Im so fucking tired of people saying this is good and that is bad. Cant just people realize that talent and dedication comes in many forms?

[bjbjbzz]

@farbrorblo Hey hey, I can also take someone elses talent, push a few buttons, turn a few nobs, go "wiky wiky" and make a killer beat. And shut the fuck up about DJ's having talent. They are a RECORDPLAYER PLAYER. They take others talent mix up and call it art. Fuck that, Henry Rollins is right about you DJing losers, go out and play a guitar, try and keep a fast beat on drums, or try to slap bass. You fuckers will by crying for your faggot records back because you dont have enough real talent

[farbrorblo]

@bjbjbzz I am no DJ. I am a drummer though, Been playing for 9 years. I can play a fast beat. But i cant produce beats, and i cant DJ. I just think its funny that you praise the Roots, but bash DJs, even though they themselves praise DJs. Jay Dee, a DJ and producer, has influenced the Roots more than probably any drummer living today, according to ?uestlove himself. Go make a beat before you say its easy. I have tried, and i know its not.

[bjbjbzz]

@farbrorblo I made one and sold it to little John for 5,000 dollars.

[xlanciferionx]

@bjbjbzz

"I made one and sold it..."

I call bullshit. Your sentiment betrays you. If you did what you say you did, then prove it.

[bjbjbzz]

@xlanciferionxI don't gotta prove shit to you. The beat speaks for itself. It's in the song called "Yeah" Idk might have heard of it, it got a little famous.

[xlanciferionx]

@bjbjbzz

"It's in the song called "Yeah" Idk might have heard of it"

Nope. Never heard it. What album is it on?

[bjbjbzz]

@xlanciferionx Look it up, Usher is in it too. Give it a search.

[xlanciferionx]

@bjbjbzz

Usher is in it? It's on his fucking album. At least you got the producer right. One little problem, I highly doubt you're one of the ones that co-wrote the song. Not only that, but Lil Jon is the one that made that beat. In fact, he had to. The one he had planned on using went to Petey Pablo. Sorry, pal. You're full of shit, and couldn't even get Lil Jon's name right.

[bjbjbzz]

@xlanciferionx No fucking shit you stupid nigger. If your dumb enough to even believe that for a second, you have to be mentally fucking challenged.

[xlanciferionx]

@bjbjbzz

So, if you knew that I knew you were full of shit, why did you choose to continue the charade? That's fucking mentally challenged. Is your own life so sad that you'd have to lie about it?

[farbrorblo]

@bjbjbzz Good for you

[Benzmusic]

Black Thought absolutely murks this. Whats new?

[ishavecats]

show your love people for the underrated roots rate 5

[macdease]

@ishavecats they the shit.

[Ardin70]

that guy in the red is awesome

[LilBlitz116]

yeah hes amazing

[frkye]

That's Scratch. Crazy beatboxer.

[Ardin70]

wow, whats the name of this song?

[releewasgay]

This is the best thing ive ever heard em do. The best part is the phat fuckin funk vamp beat with live instruments.

[sentinel488]

i wonder how long after this was made that their guitar player jumped ship and joined incubus?

[greenbeendmb]

that doesnt look like ben kenney

[Kobashi81]

Yep, that's Ben Kenney.

[FuzzyHaskins]

who are you talking about?

[Benzmusic]

this was right around the time of phrenology so about a year after. plays bass for incubus. worked out tho both he and kirk are nasty.

[joe00000000]

This is was intended to be on a Black Thought solo album. The name of the track is "Hardware". They probably never put it on an album because it's to similar to "Don't Say Nuthin' ", which was a single on a Roots album.

[wgbarnes101]

joe, I remember there was talk about Black Thought dropping something during the early part of the millenium but nothing came. You are right, this song "Hardware" sounds like "Don't Say Nuthin' ". I like The Roots.

[umiami85]

Fucking Amazing....see you March 19th

[owethornquist]

Great stuff!

[kingemac]

yeah babe, thatz da sh!t

[BPProductions]

Super Dope. This Cut Is The SHIT!
