Rizoh Says:
I don’t think it’s that excessive. These are mostly Roots members (Dice, Malik, etc) and there are some repeat guests (Kweli, Porn, Truck North).

Hey, Riz, been watching the news? How come you haven’t posted about the latest on your boy Obama? Normally you’d be right up on this.
Obama is done.

AC Says:
Nevermind damn Mos Def sounded like Black Thought the first time I listened to it. Or maybe I didn’t expect him to be that good, so I figured he was someone else. His verse was money.
