The Roots
They are the best hip hop band out there. Nobody could come close to these guys.

I haven't listened to them in a while, but I heard them a few days ago and was mighty impressed with their material. I think I am going to download some songs when I get home today!

I saw them live in San Francisco a few years back and it was one of the best concerts I've ever been to. I never get tired of "THE ROOTS COME ALIVE"...it's always playing in the car.

I've seen them with Rage Against the Machine way back. They were totally awesome.

The Roots!!!!
Now, I'm a d-load fanatic, but....
When it comes to the Roots, I say, buy the CDs -- and go the concerts.
In college, I volunteered for security and stagehand duties for their concert on campus just to meet the fellas. They were extremely cool and quite patient when asked to pose for pictures.
Wished I was in Philly for the MTV $2Bill concert.

roots
I think certain members carry the group a bit more. But I'm still a pretty big fan of the whole Okayplayer thang.

--I actually got to meet with them twice...they were kinda cool.

I've seen them a few times, in Dallas a month or so ago with Cody Chesnutt and Skillz, and on a couple of different tours.
They're definitely one of the best bands out there right now!

I must say, Spearhead comes very close to the Roots. Although I don't know if I would call Spearhead a hip hop band.
