Song of the Day

The Roots feat. Patty Cash - "Never"
I'm embarrassed to admit that I haven't gotten ...And Then You Shoot Your Cousin yet, but every review I read says that Black Thought is barely on the record and that just doesn't sound like a Roots album to me. I'll end up getting it regardless because The Roots have never disappointed me, but Black Thought and ?uestlove ARE The Roots, so less Tariq is not a good thing. Anyway, this song is really dope. Patty Crash's vocals to open and close the song work really well. She is the star of the show on this one, with a Black Thought verse interspersed. I do like how the track changes its feel when Thought starts rhyming. Really, it's vintage Roots. What am I waiting for? Time to go get ...And Then You Shoot Your Cousin.
