The Roots - The next Movement (live version), tell me if you hate still hate hip hop after listening to that. Listen to the lyrics. It ain't about women, cars and $$$. That's hip hop, all this Ja Rule stuff you here is Pop. The sound Deeko is listening to :)


btw, it was recorded in Zurich :D

btw#2, they play all instruments by themselves.

50 cent is just another pop artist, you can compare him to Britney Spears.

Agreed, Roots write some good stuff.

For the record, I think most of us here can make a distinction between pre-fab pseudo ghetto rap garbage and real hip-hop. If you can't make a distinction between a group like De La Soul or the Roots vs. whatever the latest steaming pile Cash Money Records has released you have no business playing music critic, IMO.

Do you have a link where I can legally download this song for free? Or am I expected to pay some money to listen to it?

frankly, yes. You can talk down on pop music all you want, but that doesn't change the fact that they sing well.

Skoorb- your preoccupation with that song is bordering on obsessive. JMHO. ;)

Yes, I have. You try to sing like you do in the studio while dancing like she does.

Right, but we don't all have nice boobies like she does, so she must be talented, right? :confused:

Listen to some real artist when they sing live. Like The Roots, or someone else, they don't need to dance to sell records, they sell records with doing music.
