It shouldn't even have to be said because it's

Common sense but I'm glad he put it out there.I won't even plug in with you if we can't be friends or hangout...and stop trying to steal your bandmates girlfriend...and look beyond your city for gigs...the world is at your feet...embrace it!

Thanks for the reality check, cause I was about to wriggity-wreck myself. I practice daily, and can delve in a groove, canyon deep, but i'm not surrounding by all-stars and descendent of a moneyed player. Muchos Gracias. One beat, many dreams.

LOL Robotic, Soulless Imitator... Playing drums is not all about solos my friend. When you can keep time, stay in the groove, and get as deep in the pocket as Questlove can, then I'll take what you say seriously.

Until then, keep on practicing.

Everyone in the latter portions of this comment board need to chilly, chill. And allow me to lay it down for you. VampireYouth raises some very salient points, while the QuestLove rump kissers are confused children. The man is a robotic, soullless imitator whose solos are not so much improv as they are pastiche, or medleys of something he once enjoyed. A quilting of silky beats laid down by true pioneers. Fans of the quest should exchange their sticks for knitting needles and get off my Ill Tip.

I love Questlove but his voice always throws me off. I always expect it to be huskier, and, I guess bigger, like his size and his 'fro, but it's just always mad chill.

YESSSSSSSSS!!!!!!!!!! NO DISLIKES!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

?uestlove performed with john paul jones of led zeppelin at bonnaroo in 2008. that should answer any questions about his credibility as a drummer. he may not be flashy, but there's no way someone like jpj would play with him if he wasn't solid.

anyone who's ever been in a band knows that the time you spend offstage with your bandmates is just as important (if not more so) than the time you spend onstage. if you take what he says too literally you're missing the point.

watch raging bull, serve turkey sandwiches... perfect advices ever
