So i think The Roots are like the most slept on hip hop artists ever. Black Thought is the coldest most slept on lyracist. Their production is always amazing with ?uest Love on the drums. Black Thought and former member Malik B never let me down on lyrics. With collaborations with Mos Def, Common, Talib Kwali, Styles P, and P.O.R.N I gotta give the album a 9 overall. Favorite songs Rising Down and Lost Desire another one would be Rising Up ft Chrisette Michele.
Anyone else listened to the album?

man its not like this i mean the rating system its not from one to then check the models that others used so u can make one for yourself it looks more cool and relevant IMO
Menace, it's all good. we will make an official rating section when we get the actual site running. don't trip. yeah, Rising Down is in my top ten albums this year. here's the list in no particular order:
Elzhi - The Preface Invincible - Shapeshifters Metaform - Standing On The Shoulders Of Giants Clutchy Hopkins - Walking Backwards Q-Tip - The Renaissance Reef The Lost Cauze - A Vicious Cycle The Roots - Rising Down Atmosphere - When Life Gives You Lemons You Paint That Shit Gold EMC - The Show Johnson&Johnson - Johnson&Johnson (Blu & Mainframe)
I swear, the Roots have 10 albums under their belts. All 10 are classics. This isn't up for discussion. It is a fact. They are the most consistent hip hop act of all time. prepare to be X'd out!
