It’s amazing how talented The Roots are.. They can play literally ANY type of music…
Every time they come out with something they just leave me floored with how good it is… I can’t wait for this album..
Holy Cow!!! this is comparable to a Hendrix track straight up!!! and coming from a group that started out hip-hop/jazz. wow you know youve crossed over when you can perform any genre of music!!! many people who dont know you guys are gonna know you based on this one track.
black thought is one of the best ever, the whole top 5 top 10 thing is arguable but id probably put him in both and probably even close to the very top of my top 5. Dude is a monster. Original, lyrical, never sells out, stays true to the roots. dude is a genious.
Lists of top 10 or top 5 are questionable themselves…there’s so many artists you can’t possibly fit it all in some stupid top 10 list…only hip-hop fans do this and its hella lame.
This isn’t from UNDUN! According to their Facebook this is just a track they did for fun. If you even look at the tracklisting for Undun, this is no where in it. HipHopDX needs to get their facts straight.
This sound like sum ol’ white boy headbanger heavy metal type shit!…we good over here on this shit homie…shit gives me a headache!….stop this shit! go back to the old conscious Roots….

they are supposed to be a band…they used to have some good beats….but now all they have mostly to me is lyrics…the beats are suffering!
Not what I was expecting….Sounds like a Lenny Kravitz lost track.
C’mon man …. the track is coooool ! And I’m smilin thinkin about Tha carter Rebirth …
2 Stars. I’m not feeling this shit at all.
roots are ill!!!versatility is amazing…

Dopeness!!!!
that was cool
Its not on UNDUN, its the Captain Morgan campaign “life, love, loot”

You dumbasses need to know where hiphop came from before you try to be “smart” and comment on this.
If anything, this sounds like some Jimi Hendrix shit…
fair effort
nah, i know they on jimmy falon and all, tryin to appeal to those fans but, what about us??….weak
lol.. they have 12 albums for “us”… Besides, why does hip hop only need to be for “us”? “We” can’t like other sounds of music?
It’s not bad, i like it !
It sounds like some Lenny Kravitz shit! i expected better
I feel betrayed by them,their music is crap now.
Hey Lil Wayne it’s over there, at gay porn shop
I give it 1 month and this is gonna be in a commercial for a car, or cell phone, or some shit. It has that sound.
captain morgan rum actually but yea it is for a commercial. not their cd
This song actually is the new theme song for Captain Morgan and will not appear on their new album UNDUN.
Evolving smoothly
