Talib Kweli and the Roots, two of the best conscious hip hop acts out there. Man, now I'm doubly bummed that I'm missing this game.
ReplyDeleteOAR as well is one of my top FAVES!!! Jer, I have a feeling The Roots wont be going on till late...or I HOPE SO! If not, I may start singing in the middle of the field!
ReplyDeleteI saw the Roots on the Colbert Report last night. They're pretty good - at least the Colbert anthem.

so that was the same Roots on the Colbert Report....cool...(they smashed up their guitars and everything!)
ReplyDeleteI'm too old though, I don't recognize any of those names.
See you at the next Police reunion tour ;)
