Why Are You Obligated to "Like" The Roots(They Are Garbage)

[VladTheImpaler]

They are shyt. Always has been. It's like cool to say you like The Roots.




But, it is true.....and they suck ass indeed.

hmm I can't say I listen to the the roots current music but I never pretended to like this song:

[ame=http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=rt9IP0t6ywc]The Roots - The Great Pretender [Illadelph Halflife] 1996 - YouTube[/ame]

I never felt obligated to listen to this:

[ame="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5t7rP0TK5WM"]The Roots - What They Do (with lyrics). - YouTube[/ame]

You inadvertently started an appreciation thread on the Roots, well done for someone who thinks they are

Roots have always been dope to me but Illadelphia Halflife is overrated as hell to me.

I literally like every album they've ever released more than it

Have you seen any of their live performances?

 

[notorious8562]

You're not obligated to like them, but I have a hard time seeing how someone cannot.

The only Roots song I like, and mean this literally, is "The Next Movement"...

Some dude once gave me a free The Roots album "Do you want more?"

I chucked it after 1 attempt to listen to it...

 

[Czerka]

i like seeing them live, but theyre albums put me to sleep

 

[bangbreh]

can't wait till reps come back so this fakkit can get piru'd out

 

[ArchStanton]

I think the Roots are good but overrated. Saw their live show and there were too many jam sessions for my taste and too many instances of the band trying to show off. When it comes to live hip hop bands, the groups behind both Public Enemy and Arrested Development blew the Roots out of the water IMO. Damien Marley's band playing behind Nas on the Rock the Bells tour offshoot was better too.

how i got over was the dopest album of 2010



i'm not sure who you prefer, nor do I really care but i've never thought a roots album was wack

I'm not OBLIGATED to do anything.

I just love their music and originality that they consistently bring ot the game.

Black Thought TO ME is one of the most under appreciated MCs EVER.
