The Roots - The Fire (Feat. John Legend)

[Destin4Life]

this track is so underrated every word that comes outta his mouth is a punch line, track is sick

blows my mind,how people dont know real music anymore,and i think the problem is based on people not listening to lyrics but than again this beat is "FIRE" as well, i just dont understand ! anyways ill go about my day pumpin some of THE FIRE up in my ride peace

[TotalGamerism]

did anybody else notice that the picture keeps getting bigger and bigger?

[TheLinkMedic]

Good running song.

[ROFLMAORYSST]

ROSKILDE 2012!!!!

[GamingCompound]

I'm the definition of tragedy turned triumph.... simple as that

[cavanfamily12345]

i was close to failing my nursing school but this song gave me hope and i passed the semester... THE FIGHT GOES ON!!!

[mybig11inch]

favorite song to listen to during anything

[drewuke]

and all this time i thought it was 'Shaun White is an example of a champion'

[loniscrafontana]

let it burn mudafukaa

[EdTheDragonSlayer]

good song, but I was really spoiled by the intro of the fight night version so now this just sounds OK. Second verse still rocks though

[KrizH3]

I want the instrumental of this so bad !

[amak1093]

for some reason this song kinda reminds me of the book series hunger games

[Uncharted2]

You can't argue at the fact that Fight Night Champion helped this song out. The game remixed this seriously bad ass tune in so many ways in that game, sure it caused me to come here alongside many others. If you have a problem with that then cry me a river.

[kiki55063]

Can I say Flow???

[TheAlDuude]

Fuck. These. Ads.

[jmarrvin]

Let's get this straight once and for all. Just to clarify, I brought myself here, but there's nothing wrong if you found the Roots from Fight Night. But if you all comment "like this if fight night brought you here", it gets old real quick. On the other hand, if you ridicule fans of the game, you're being really fucking obnoxious.

For the sake of hip hop, we need these people to dig further into the crates so that the art form can gain more followers. A hostile community will turn them away.

[LJLambertAravena]

im saying i heard this on fight night coz people seem to think its a bad idea for the roots to put this song on there and for EA to use it for the games main character and basically use the song to promote there game.......how are people hating on that ?! the roots did whats good for them , so what?

[jmarrvin]

@LJLambertAravena If you got that idea from my comment, I sincerely apologize. I completely agree with you; it was great of EA to use this song in their game. I was just expressing my incredulity at how many people were posting comments like "thumbs up if fight night brought you here". It seems to have sparked a lot of heated debate.

[SKINCRAWLofficial]

man the roots brought me here

[petermuscle]

calm down everyone its just a song

[DJESR7]

Does it really matter how you got to this song? Point is all of our ears is listening to some good shit. The Roots certainly didn't have anything against the song being put on the song. hell they approved it by letting them. In the end they get more fans and help spread the art that is their music. Period, Dot, Done.

[POLChelseaFC]

@DJESR7 Yeah it does just because you play computer games like a little fagg we are sick of your comments like

"ooo I'm here because I play fight night championship thumbs up if you're a faggot like me too!"

[jmarrvin]

@POLChelseaFC No offense, but that's the most retarded thing I've ever heard. I got here by myself, but newcomers who like the song will definitely search deeper into this genre. A huge number of us got here from some outside source and gradually waded further and further into the pool that is hip hop. The rest were fortunate enough to have witnessed the art form in its glory years, and have clung on to it ever since. I'd bet good money that you're in the first category.

[POLChelseaFC]

@jmarrvin Successful troll was very successful thanks for the heart filled messaged.

[jmarrvin]

@POLChelseaFC whoops. boy, is my face red.

[AliTheGOAT]

I hate people that say "Oh you got here by playing fight night champion? you're not a true fan" wtf? because i dint listen to the song in the radio , or store etc. i cant become a fan? lol. C'mon mature up.

[TheAMHaze]

I wake up to this song. puts me in the mood to whoop the days ass!

[shiki2zoku]

1:50 n on stuck to the g code

[37Cosmin]

@shiki2zoku Hell yeah, that's my fav. verse

[ivanmatearajkov]

i got here from a bike vid

[crummy06]

what the fuck is fight night champion?

[susano85]

@crummy06 A boxing video game

[shadow86sk]

Totally fired up to fight when I hear this in fight night champion!

[royal44100]

I came here through Doin' It Again.

[MrNETOMASTER]

Roots mto loco a galera Br deveria ouvir mais isso

Nao os prego ramela de restarty da joinha aew

[fmg92jr]

I'm not a big fan of rap, but this is the kind of rap i actually like.

[Annoyingthing92]

Heard this song on Razors Game Theory...such a good beat for skating

[x13Datsyuk13X]

i came here cause its on lucas magoons playlist :)

[69Quant]

Actually I came here from a Highlight Video of Michael Vick xD

Perfect music for him I guess xD

[mistajeevs]

how i got over brought me here, the lyrics made me stay. Finding the fire within yourself and then letting it drive you to whatever it is that you want to accomplish is what this songs all about to me.

[vipersian]

I got here by accident... lol i clicked the wrong video.

[raised2killu]

@vipersian

[ALPHAHXCORE]

why is half of the roots albums(including this) are unavailable on EU iTunes

[kingwoompwoomp]

[kingwoompwoomp]

is this song slowed down?

[cavanfamily12345]

OMG THIS SONG MAKE ME TO WANNA RUN..

[TheEpicShow123]

[xH2OxLEGENDXERO]

Everyone got here from using their browser and opening youtube jeez....

[DanIrish409]

@abstrakt540 why would there be fire in your ass??? is someone raping you with a branding iron???

[vedlkin111]

@DanIrish409 or, eating something really really hot :P

[Itemno9]

Never even heard of fight night champion, my buddy just posted this on my wall and now I'm raping the replay button.



[abstrakt540]

Always thought it said "there's something in your heart, and it's in your ass, it's the fire." ? hahaha wtf

[CFMusic123]

@abstrakt540 eyes haha!

[grebur69]

Polacy ! Też sądzicie że to jest zajebiste ?

[FireWorks4421xx]

Legends...



[awesomekopi]

i work out to this song

[jmarrvin]

Oh look at that, I got a top comment. Ain't that some shit.

Man, I feel like this is the happiest day of my life.

[marvinbienaime1]

Love this song..... Never heard this until tonight, where the hell have I been. Grerat song..

[kingofthering24]

I admit, yes. I heard this song originally on Fight night champion. So what? That's not what MADE me come here, it was the fact that I liked it and wanted to hear the whole song. The game didn't force me to at gun point, and I had to get knowledge from somewhere about this song.

[CrownedMask]

@kingofthering24 The game subconciously forces you at gun point by inserting copious amounts of this song.

Not sure if thats a coherent sentence.

[kingofthering24]

@CrownedMask Only heard part of it once in the game, thought "sounds good, wanna hear the whole song"

[appleshoppe]

Not talking about 'shawties', drugs or money... This is what rap should sound like. Love this song. Here's to uplifting/meaningful lyrics.

[boredstudent]

WHERE DA FUCK IS HE?? WHERE THAT FOOL AT HUH?? he better run cause I'm ready for him. hehe sorry

[juslumba]

Thumbs Up If Fight Night Champion Brings you Here

:)

[croftipsy]

in here just for this good music and 2 keep the fire burning 

[VyperSniper]

I think the orchestral version is better.

[Denmoose712]

I'm here cause of Iain Mcleod

[jmarrvin]

Jesus, am I the ONLY PERSON HERE who got here by some reason OTHER than fight night champion!?

[wizkidentertainment]

@jmarrvin I didn't even know the song was on the game soundtrack but it's appropriate. I'm happy to see they chose it for the game.

[kingofthering24]

@jmarrvin Well...sort of no. I mean, I heard this on the game, but that's not what made me look for it, I wanted to find the full song and hear it, and since I have I feel much more...inspired. :)

[tindololo]

@jmarrvin ur not the only one

[coolbadboy786]

@jmarrvin U AND 25 MORE PPL

[ivanlazarovski]

@jmarrvin Because the roots are the best maybe :D and of course John Legend!!! He's the man :D

[Oldschoolhockey91]

@jmarrvin

I was watching highlights of the great Randall Cunningham with a faster version of this track being played. I dug it and went to the main source.

Boss song

[egganbert]

@jmarrvin Yes lol

[lokip0000]

@jmarrvin yeah ima long running roots fan, they are fantastic

[OneWonderfulSunday]

@jmarrvin not ONLY :)

[chivas7569]

@jmarrvin stfu wanna be hipster for all we know you did.

[jmarrvin]

@chivas7569 It's not that. It's just that when I made that comment, both the top comments and the vast majority of comments all said the same thing: "Thumbs up if Fight Night Champion brought you here." It was incredibly annoying.

[can0mark]

@jmarrvin

It was actually annoying? How so?

[jmarrvin]

@can0mark I wish I could explain. Maybe I'm just a very irritable person.

[can0mark]

@jmarrvin

Ah well, at least you've got a great song to listen to, to counter the annoyance.

[cosmose102]

@jmarrvin never played the game

[POLChelseaFC]

@jmarrvin I guess so, I don't really search up rap, hip hop, pop or whatever genre this music comes under but either way its good.

[SuperYankeefan21]

@jmarrvin yes

[LJLambertAravena]

@jmarrvin the roots dont care if people heard this beat on fight night champion or they heard it somewhere else and then the people who hear it go and buy it , there gettin payed no matter what

[ThePolarpack]

Love to listen to this before a boxing spare or match gets me pumped...

[MrJmoney1293]

[zach4111]

[6angelo9]

@rotatech you call him a dumbass simply because he didn't know it was a game? cmon man. just saying.

[libertytester]

Does Any1 want 2 take me on? I have 3 EA Championship Belts waiting 2 b taken from my Knocked-out hands, And UNDEFEATED for 60 rounds! Bring it on! If u want 2 risk yor boxer, hit me up and u got a fight!

[mrkuttypandi]

@libertytester Nice.. me too. i've played 74 games and 73 of them were wins and first round knockouts, and 1 of them i lost to Rob Pryor as i forgotten to rest and i had 20 % stamina hence i loss but with pride as i fought till the 7th round and now i have 3 EA Championship Belts I am 37 in age and a light heavy weight after transfering up from middleweight ready to take me?

[trethegee]

this aint the one from fight night champions because play FNC and u will hear a kind of diffrent tone of voice when he says let it burn

[hisdudenessxiv]

@trethegee Yeah, there's an "orchestral" version. It's on the OST of the game, but if you check youtube for "Fight Night Champion Montage!!!" the entire thing is in there.

[TheZwali]

Thumbs up if u got the song from Fight Night Chapmion

Its a really good song tho!

[mics4weapons23]

It's the damn shame that I heard this song on youtube with a weak ass video, but didnt recognize it for a week and a half of Fight Night Champion demo. It was good the first time around, but I should have listened to the song this way... The Roots are WAY underrated, and i should have bought this album.

[iaredapwn]

FIGHT NIGHT CHAMPION!
