    1. shit is dope but it has been done before check out “Warp to World 6-9” by Benefit. from mid 90s i believe dope track off a dope album not a very well known artist.

      1. i remember hearing that shit 12 years ago when i was in 11th grade, that song about mario tryin to beat the level so he can fuck the princess lol

      2. yeah shit was dope
        if i recall it was on dudes self titled album Benefit. which had a bunch of other dope tracks like “If I owned a Midget” and “Garbage Pail Kids”…i think my favorite track was “Supreme” (real sick samples) it also had some sick sesame street and disney samples for interludes. great lyrics and old school 90s hip hop feel to it. def check it out if you can. But enough about others Tariq definitly did kill this flip of the mario song with a dope mario history track.

    2. Cocoa Bothers did first…..hip hop 101 and Black thought killed it with the roots on the altered Mario beat. Jimmy Fallon was blessed with an orchestra.

    3. that shit was dopeeeeeeee! i knew as soon it started it was gonna be crazy.. honestly if anyone can do this, its black

      1. Why are you people so stupid to think this was made up on spot. I guess they just threw the pictures of what he rapped about next to him on spot too? I like the roots and i know they have talent but this was not made up on spot and stop believing it was. even most freestyles are pre-written lyrics they memorize.

    4. BLACK THOUGHT…THE LAST LIVING MC…

      …I DONT KNOW OF ANY OTHER RAPPER OR MC LIVE THAT CAN EQUAL THIS DUDE…IF YALL KNOW ANY PLS NAME DROP THEM COZ I NEVER HEARD OF THEM

      1. why? its a band and hes the mc its not like their other niggas rhyming on roots albums apart from guest appearances and their older shit

    5. That is serious skill, that is the reason why I own every Roots CD that has ever came out, True Hip Hop.

    6. Word up to #KOOLHERC. I like that Saafir song Smart Bombs where he did something like this.

    7. sounds like his normal flow over the mario beat. that higher power-fire flower couplet was dope tho.
