damn son. black thought one of the livest emcees ever. he can rock 365 days a year, no sweat. smoke 30 blunts and still rhyme 8 hours a night, its nothin to him. emceein is light work for BT, hes a natural.
masses might sleep on BT but the emcees know what time it is. black thought can go toe to toe with anyone. i wanna buy this roots album then i wanna see black thought drop a solo album WITHOUT the roots. get kanye, just blaze, primo, pete rock, and let him work.
ever heard “the Professional” or “Mona Lisa” by Black Thought?
I think they were tracks for a supposed solo album that hasn’t happened. The Professional is 3 minutes of flames, no hook.
The Roots are popular, but somehow people still don’t realize Black Thought is one of the deadliest MC alive and ever. A solo album with production of that caliber would have to wake em up.
Word. I agree with that. I would like to see thought drop a solo joint. It would be nice to hear him with different production. He straight murdered a Kanye beat on Kweli’s album Quality on a track called “Guerrilla Monsoon Rap” Vicious Flow
Just because the track is slow and dude at rapping about swag and money doesn’t mean it aint hip-hop. Some of the greatest hip-hop songs of all time are slow (ex. Common’s I Used To Love Her). You gotta expand your mind beyond Drake and Wayne, because they may be king of the mainstream, but they aint touching the underground scene. Black Though talks about more real shit on this song than Drak prolly will on his whole album.
Peep game, I’m a fan of GOOD MUSIC it shouldn’t matter who the artist is as long as they have somethin to say. You can’t even compare Wayne to Thought cause they’re two completely different mc’s.
This is hip-hop you can’t spell. Clearly dumb ignorant pussy…. You like whatever the radio n media tells you to like. Come on Calling out fags because truly inside You are One. I mean look how you Dick Ride lil wayne. I bet you get real Handy on that shit. Your deaf. Everyone has an opinion but this shit is the TRUTH. Don’t spread your H.I.V. n Hate, keep that shit to yourself…….~Endo~

I still like how the Lil Wayne buffons still come to listen and check up on these tracks.
You don’t see me bitching on the tracks.
Oh wait,that’s right,I’m more of a grown ass man than most Wayne/Drake/Wacka fans will ever be.
Black Thought has always been a first rate monster as an emcee…He has the total package: Fluid flows, ill cadence, varied subject matter and substantive verses for days. He definetly demolished everyone in that BET cypher. I agree with Kush Nap, if he got Kanye, Just Blaze, Premo and Pete Rock beats, he could smash the game as a solo artist…As much as I love The Roots, Questlove can be bit pretentious and flaky as a producer.
The Roots are the best perfomers in hiphop period though. I do think Black Thought needs to do a solo album. He’s proven loyalty to the Roots for mad years, what’s the harm in goin solo for one album?
Hip Hop proficients, don’t fall into the trap of these ignorant kids, trying and defend why this is real hip hop. Honestly, if they really could break down why they think lil’ wayne is the GOAT then it would be worth a debate. But they can’t, they are the “hive” mind we are the thinkers, and appreciaters of a quality track.
Dope track. Black thoughts flow is infinite. He never stops. I have literally never heard a wack rhyme from Black thought. EVER!!!! He really is the most underated emcee of all time.
damn i swear i get tired of bitch niggas saying blacc thought is underrated,damn are y’all gonna say that shit everytime you hear the equal spit? fucc just jam to the shit and yellavate the equal for his skills stop worrying about what everybody else like,with that said another grade a tracc by the roots yell
I expect nothing from the greatest hip-hop crew to grace the universe. This is a hard hitting song about the lows, so I can’t even begin to imagine how amazing the uplifting tracks are going to be. I hope that this album beats Drake aka Crippy Boy.
1st verse prob the best verse probably in the past 5 years..definitely the best one in 10
that one verse slayed anything wayne has ever and will ever write.
IM FEELING WEEZY-DRAKE-WAKA & BLACK THOUGHT SO FUCK A HANDY MAN CUZ YA LADY IS GOING DIRECTLY TO THE PLUMBER BIOTCH!!!….AND OH YEA…IM FEELING MYSELF TOO…G-CLEF!!!…WWW.MYSPACE.COM/GCLEF3000
I got to ask you then:
How is it that you can tolerate Wayne when you hear this?
Just out of curiosity.
Because a good amount of my friends listen to Wayne.
And when I hear the most awful lines from Wayne,I’m like that’s why he isn’t something I hear.
Wow… hahahaha.. lol now that’s what I’m talking about..
Common, Lupe and Eminem are my favorite rappers..
But I’m not dumb and I think it’s pretty arguable when you look at the body of work…
Black Thought is probably the best rapper of all time..
lol
hands down…
if you haven’t listened to most of The Roots’ albums than don’t argue with me.
not that i wish to argue with the great mr thought being the best but DOOMs back catalogue has as much and ever more to it i think and if you look at eminem back through all d12s stuff back to infinite and then to the outsidaz you got a legac there too, and rakim back to erik b and krs one back to bdp. mos def all the way back through UTD blackstarr solo studff you know there room for people to argue that , although is we ever get the dangerous thoughts album from though and dangermouse and its as good as his other stuff i might just have to say ok no doubt, either way how great is it we can discuss artist this good
The Roots always sound so nice. They’ve been correct for over 15 years. Black Thought and ?uestlove know what they’re doing. This is real music – actual professionals, artists and intellectuals behind the power of the all-mighty Roots crew.
i expect nothing less than A++ from the roots… the solo ablum from black thought will be great indeed…. yo i love the way thought jus oozes through beats and lyrics easy indeed
REK GEEZ! Black Thought you are my favorite emcee! Damn that breath control and cadence is not to be messed with. Anyone let me get to this song, Dear God 2.0 is one of the realest I’ve heard in hip-hop since the Mos Def album. THE LEGENDARY ROOTS CREW CAN’T BE TOUCHED!
well y did u listen 2 this if u like that type of music. grow up or i guess you cant understand what he’s talking about. Wocka and them dudes aint really gangsta. gangsta is when u stand up for your people not help them destroy each other. who cant shoot a gun or sell a drug? but how many of those type can get up and become productive to the world. none they tell stories not the truth wise up buddy.
yeah dude like i think lil wayne is good like he can say some dope stuff, same with 50, but, all because this isnt talkin about killin an shit its not good music? wrong
this is that real hiphop. im so feelin this
Dear riq,
I tried to reach you but you a star. Tried to be sincere in all my questions but there you are.Thinking that someone’s frontin justly to try n dim a star.I told you, i edifyed you in my speach to you. tellin you you inspired me to rap but donnie taught me too,., man ay yo tiriq, i got nothin but love. Erey tine you seen me it was nothin but luuh., i let you go without even thinkin bout uh, how you got a record deal and my family scraping meals.Except that time in the book store when i told you i got skills, and was graceful and offered you a gift to lift. what you say naw i’m good all by my self, not knowing that this gift was from no one else. But What you was praying for by the one you adore.I meant it “concern” when i asked about your toof, when mine split, it,was like aww shit., shit hurt like the truff. Sooo in close i expose the one who comes from heaven 215 till the sky open up for the kingdom of heaven signed the angel in revelation 3 paragraph 7.
Brilliance! I can’t help but smile when I hear this. Black Thought is so underrated as an artist. The Roots deserve much more respect than they get. Thank you Tariq..give us more food for thought your fans are starving
if you think flocka is better than this u are out of ur mind…Im a flocka fan but im also realistic and flocka couldnt do a track like this if he took a year to write it…all he is good for is gettin hype, he cant rap tho, wouldnt even speak his name in the presense of black thought
The subtle concepts in this beat are crazy, epic stuff…Black thought always comes with that serious thought provoken rap that keep focus from start to finish …ILL production as usual from the roots. The Two tracks from this album so far are definatly diggable…and wacka flacka ? your a fag, that some dance routine rap
yo i really been listening to this daily since it first came out black thought goes every time never slips never stumbles and he really speaks when he raps hes in my top 10 of all time yeah thats rite i said it he is in my top 10 of all time.
Classic Roots
Beautiful.
damn son. black thought one of the livest emcees ever. he can rock 365 days a year, no sweat. smoke 30 blunts and still rhyme 8 hours a night, its nothin to him. emceein is light work for BT, hes a natural.

Amazing…simply Amazing

Amazing ! Black Thought is the man. Consistent.
The Roots are ill.
Peace.
and u compare this wack shit to that real shit from lil wayne!…niggaz are u deaf or something?are u 10 or 90 years old?
i bet anybody says this shit is real is a faggot ass nigga
We dont expect Drake fans to understand this kind of Hip-Hop.
Ignorance is motherfucking bliss.
niggaz this’s hiphop?
i thought it was soldier of love by sade…
lil wayne! is da goat hate it or love it

im feelin the lyrics. wish the harp was louder. overall this is a very good song.
That’s the Roots baby…Classic Black Thought. I’m depressed though. That’s not the most uplifting song…
Black Thought = Underrated MC
I say it everyday
black thought = the best mc. i say it everyday
