Clones by The Roots. this is one of my favorite Roots songs of all time. Dice Raw gives his best collabo verse, and this beat is pure fire. My favorite Roots album is Phrenology, but Illadelph Halflife comes reeeeal close, mostly because of this track. lead emcee, the under-appreciated Black Thought is in rare form, and like i said before, Dice Raw doesn't get any better than this! cop Illadelph Halflife any which way you can (like by clicking the pic on the left), but right now just take a few minutes to peep Clones! -ghettoManga.com comics.hipHop.news.art.culture
at the time, i thought "Illadelph" was the best Roots album. although "Phrenology" is not better at what THIS album does, i felt it was better over all. "Illadelph" is the record i would recommend to would-be hip hoppers who wanted a prototypical hip hop banger... "Phrenology" is on some OTHER ish...
Illadelph is my favorite Roots joint. It was that significant a step up from the second album that I was like "whoa."
ReplyDeleteThat and the Fugees set my college tone.
