    Good Job! This is how it’s supposed to be done. It took me back to classic collabos like how Salt N Pepa/E.U., Kurtis Blow/Trouble Funk, Redman/DJ Kool. Big ups to Wale for representing OUR hometown DC very well. What can I say, the ROOTS have done it again. Be on the look out for these other cats DJ S.E. & DarnGood collabo with DJ Kool (DC hittin em hard this year). This single is going to tear the clubs up!! PEACE.

    That was “Dyn-o-mite!!” as qouted from JJ. The Roots have cranked out yet another Hip-Hop classic!! THE ROOTS is one of the best, exceptional, immeasurably valuable groups. They are the real deal. This is Hip-Hop what it was always meant to do: Move the body and the mind. :-)

    Rik no play. He’s tearing it up in the realm of the visual world. He’s on a roll with his renegade film aesthetics. I LOVE “birthday girl.”
    The streets better watch out for Rik Cordero. :-)

    Hmmm I am diggin’ this video and Wale is sick, but something about that Milo shirt screams Fape. I may be wrong but I don’t remember ever seeing a Milo T like that, instead of saying “By A Bathing Ape” it just says “By Bathing Ape”. I’m still feelin’ Wale just hope he didn’t know it was fake if it is.
