Props I'm joking it's that I never seen him in the hiphop circle before.

Theres an actual video they shot for the just blaze remix…. He walking around the city and stuffs (jay not in the video, but they play his verse and i think lenny recites a couple lines from what i recalls).



Personal fav.

This is a feel good. I don't know why I find his voice funny he is a good vocalist just softer than I thought.

The beat has that 'change clothes beat' bop sound. Jay's bars were dope again but yeah boy does he love to self-praise lol. I like the 'Lucky Lefty' reference since Donnie Brasco is a classic to me.

Good joint though, it was good music. Props.

That line was ridiculous. If they fukk up today I’m hittin Amex for a chargeback

 

[Stick Up Kid]

This just the Roots name. The person who was paid to promote and manage don’t give a fukk. Took all the bread and bounced

Fyre Festival was a scam, this shyt here was just bad business…hopefully

lol it’s Live Nation bruh

This ain’t a local janky promoter

They delayed letting people in earlier, pushing entrance and everything back by like 2-3hrs But i think they only announced it like a couple hours before hand. Caused a bottleneck.

[Ol’Otis]

So The Roots didn’t headline a roots festival in Philly? I’m confused

It's an all day music festival. About 50+ artists perform over 2 days...2.5 to 3 performance stages and a podcast stage. But they have a headliner. Sometimes they back up the headliner and collaborate, sometimes they sit it out. But they do perform throughout the days. Thought comes out several times during the different performance. But in true Roots show fashion, there's always special unannounced guests that pop up and perform.

The problem is that they moved it to a park about 10 years ago. The main stage is built on top of a parking lot, surrounded by dirt and grass. It's rain or shine, but they've canceled or delayed during severe ththunderstorms. A lot of the out of towners didnt know these things about the location.
