LMFAO. You so confused you don't know what the fuck to debate.

Where's the lie? YOU said You Got Me was mainly a hit cuz of Badu's feature

Like I said, where's the lie?';;lll

 

[5 Grand]

I gave you hits. You just don't wanna except it, cuz you ain't got shit else.

I can't "except it" because it's impossible

 

[Goldie]

Yeah he on that bullshit comparing Tariq tonsome no name battle rapper. And the Roots got hits.
You got Me
Proceed
The Next Movement
What They Do
Clones
Love of my life
Etc.
The Roots have impacted the culture!

The only hip hop band! The only late night talk show hip hop band! Foh!

Those aren't "hits". Again, we've been doing the "best songs from __ year" and The Roots been mentioned once and we've done 10 of em. These mfs are an after thought.

You take these niggas out of hip hop history nobody would notice. He's not even close to 10, let alone top 5.

So let's get this straight; We've done the best song from every year since 1988 and You Got Me is the only song that got a nomination, but The Roots have hits?

If they have so many hits, how come they don't get nominated for the best song of 93-2000?

They don’t get listed by me because I know when and if I do you uncultured degenerates will vote them out against some dumb ass **insert trash song/artist/fake goat here** because y’all don’t respect great MC’s LIKE REDMAN AND BLACK FUCKIN THOUGHT/THE ROOTS!!

Melle Mel had a bigger impact in his era than Black Thought had in his era.

That’s because he was a pioneer of a genre bruh...I’m not taking anything away from his impact on tha game and his or any other pioneer...not dope artist but pioneer....and yes he has some dope songs and lines....but just like tha niggaz who invented basketball had a big impact of tha league we have now...John Havlicek or Dr. Naismith or whoever from back in tha day is not better than MJ, Kobe, LeBron...shit they not even better than tha nigga not dressed out wearing a suit clapping for tha niggaz on tha court...tha craft evolves and people get better tha the originators...playin and simple...

 

[grYmes]

What the fuck y’all niggas even arguing about now... sheesh.




Oh yea, Black Thought a top 25 alltime MC.

Your analogy doesn't work.

Black people have been rapping over music since the beginning of time. I don't know if you're familiar with The Last Poets but you should check them out. Melle Mel wasn't no John Havelchik of Hip Hop. His A Child Is Born verse from The Message stands the test of time. The Roots have at least a dozen albums and they don't have one song that had as big of an impact as The Message.
