I've been looking for the song for a long time to I found it cuz it was playing for the background music on a Chevy Silverado add and I googled the add lol
This song is an absolute masterpiece. Every aspect from the lyrics, the vocals, to the rhythm is absolute perfection. I can't believe UA-cam would tamper with this excellence by censoring this song!
If most hip hop had this level of musicianship, I'd be a much bigger fan. These guys could hold their own with the best '70s funk bands and that is definitely meant as a high compliment.
Back in middle school when I was torrenting music in the early 2000’s, this song somehow found it’s way onto my computer. Never had heard of The Roots and was mainly listening to emo/metal at the time. This song completely changed my music tastes moving forward. This band is legendary.
Almost named my daughter Rock and Roll because of this song. I went with Ruby instead. I told her about it. She said she would have liked Rock and Roll too. I love you Ruby"Rock and Roll" Villanueva!!!!
This song was played without censorship when it came out on all the radio stations but now we apparently aren't allowed to hear "in her bush" or "chrome".
@@TheFilmbroad I mean, that's blatantly untrue. WAP doesn't get played on the radio uncensored. It's very heavily censored. Radio stations in the current era can't afford to just ignore FCC regulations.
@@icystorm9 I was referring to songs being censored on UA-cam. For example the song Sugar by Trick Daddy is censored on UA-cam but WAP isn't. And Sugar was played on the radio without censorship. A lot of the old school classics are censored on UA-cam much like this Roots song, but I can hear everything new uncensored on UA-cam. It is strange.
@@TheFilmbroad That's because the record label made it that way, not because of UA-cam. The new Kanye album is censored on all platforms, but none of the 80s punk I've listened to on UA-cam is censored.

But me, you & all that love this song already know the lyrics and they cannot stop me us from watching and singing it! Cus words and all.

Listen...you guys have heard it for years and this probably will fall on dead ears, but this hip hop/rock fusion joint is epic. Ive loved this track since in came out (im 43 and hip hop in the flesh). The message combined with the delivery and fusion of music...crazy. This embodies the diversity of hip hop. Round of applause again for ROOTS crew👏
I once was in Amsterdam at the centre of the red🚨🚨🚨 light district Where they played this song at real high volume at coffeeshop the Bulldog, was a surrealistic moment in time but real nice to remember when i ever hear this classic popRockSong ✌️🖤💪💪

@Alex I because he's narrow-minded and knows fuck all about music. Tired of people refusing to acknowledge that every instrument is a machine that makes noise and they don't hold any value over computers. Elitists are a disease.
The Roots, best thing to come out Philly since Tastycake, can't beat a candy cake and krimpets; those who've had a Tastycake know exactly what I'm talking bout. Love love love this track, man how can anyone not instantly start moving to this track. Much love to everyone and the Roots!

Someone said they were offended with how these lyrics were edited. Well, if that person knew what the hell they were doing, this song would remain unedited! Peace!
SKULL KRUSHER Yes, they are top notch musicians. And they are indeed very tight when they play live. But it is silly to say “they are all right in the groove the whole time” when you’re talking about a studio recording. You can pick the worst bunch of musicians in the world and make them sound tight with some computer magic. In the studio, every instrument is recorded separately. A musician can do many takes. Small pieces can be stitched together or copy-pasted. Individual notes can be moved miliseconds to be right on the beat.
@@Brinta3 Yes, but "right on the beat" doesn't groove like this. But I do get your point that you can move notes milliseconds in the studio to get them exactly where you want them.
@@skullkrusher4418 Lol, I saw the “four years ago” and “one year ago”. Never before in history have conversations been so delayed as on UA-cam. I think even letters carried by ship from colonial America to Europe and vice versa made for faster communication.
Been listening to these guys since their second album when I was only 13 by far my favorite rap group and I still think "Things Fall Apart" is the best hip hop album ever made. They have been, overlooked, and considered underrated even within hip hop for most of their career. While I knew they were on Jimmy Falon I've never really watched the show and didn't realize what a boost this has given the band. I haven't checked out this video in a while and tonight seeing that it has nearly 17 million views almost made me shed a tear. I had no idea they gained that level of popularity. Congratulations guys you all worked damn hard to get where you are and deserve every bit of your success!
The Chosen One Hard to chose but probably Next movement, Dynamite, and Adrenaline. I also think Return to Innocence Lost is my favorite out of all the poems on their albums.
What you wrote basically described my experience with the roots. Got into them at the same age, what they do is probably still favorite rap song. I would heard everyday from age 13-20, I'm not into music in general as I was back then. But you echo my sentiment regarding the recognition they're getting, it's well deserved and about time. Peace...don't know if rap heads even say that anymore.
I could be wrong but I believe the lil girl is the child of one of them. Great song and video. First time I saw it I was in the 7th grade. It still feel the same.
I still remember the first time I heard this song. I was chilling and drinking with some of my friends and the video came on tv and within 30 seconds it just completely killed all conversation through its sheer dopeness.
This is one of their greatest hits! The crossover that finally put them on the map everywhere! Saw Cody Chestnut in 2010 solo in Denver. AMAZING. I will forever love this song!!!

This is rap or hiphop, whatever u consider it, i call it the soundtrack to my teen years I loved this song so damn much when it came out Thank you guys!!!!!!!!! Impossible to not rock to this
This was the first song i heard from The Roots. When you fall in love at first sight for whatever it could be, you know that, that thing is dope! and yeah, I've heard others songs from The roots and I did not regret myself
named my twins after this songs lyrics...."I would name her rock n' roll..."; my twins are Halen and Acey.....two rock n roll bands who are undeniably considered Rock...Van Halen & Ac/Dc.....can't deny thier guitar riffs...so I named them Rock n' Roll!;)
So...I guess I'm naming something great that I do "Rock & Roll"... always gaining a new perspective. The beat reaches me on a molecular level. I just ran through some book club picks and got to the end and just started feeling this beat but couldn't figure out what my brain was trying to say. I used my inner voice of compassion and within 3 minutes and a restroom break... I got the whole song then pulled it up in here. I love this song!!! TY Roots. Shout out to Animal for going to ALL the Philly concerts and reporting back to us "elders" the good, good vibes!
The bartender where I used to work played this on house speakers off her iPod. I couldn’t remember who played it and I saw the GMC commercial. Great song!
I’m an old millennial. This song kicked ass back in the early 2000’s and still kicks ass today. I don’t care what anybody says.
Really?
Still bangs every week on my playlist 😎 reminds me of an old flame 🔥

Agreed. Jimmy Fallon lucked out on having both The Tonight Show and The Roots.

This was the first song i heard from The Roots.
When you fall in love at first sight for whatever it could be, you know that, that thing is dope!
and yeah, I've heard others songs from The roots and I did not regret myself
Music was so much better back then.

bro, the way this dude just seamlessly string together so many figures of speech is brilliant, man.
named my twins after this songs lyrics...."I would name her rock n' roll..."; my twins are Halen and Acey.....two rock n roll bands who are undeniably considered Rock...Van Halen & Ac/Dc.....can't deny thier guitar riffs...so I named them Rock n' Roll!;)
That is just fuckin amazing made my day.

That's phenomenal
Mega man did it first though.
that is seriously the coolest thing I have ever heard
I love the drums 🥁 can you dig it 🎶🎶. I know you can 🎵🎵🎶🎶🎶🎵🎵
So...I guess I'm naming something great that I do "Rock & Roll"... always gaining a new perspective. The beat reaches me on a molecular level. I just ran through some book club picks and got to the end and just started feeling this beat but couldn't figure out what my brain was trying to say. I used my inner voice of compassion and within 3 minutes and a restroom break... I got the whole song then pulled it up in here. I love this song!!! TY Roots. Shout out to Animal for going to ALL the Philly concerts and reporting back to us "elders" the good, good vibes!
I hear this during a lot of sporting event commercial breaks on tv. That riff is the catchiest thing ever. Lyrics are ice cold.
This song is fire, even now. We ran this shit out when it first came out! It's such a good song!
I can see how good is Rock n Roll when it is mixed with real hiphop!
The bartender where I used to work played this on house speakers off her iPod. I couldn’t remember who played it and I saw the GMC commercial. Great song!
Daroots - Seedstorm
Damn.
Death Season Good game.

Collin Dao This video.

Somebody once said that BlackThought is among the top 10 MCs of all time. Yeah. I concur. He damn sure is.
....and "Questlove".. is....badass..... like no other.
This will never get old period! Philly in the house …
Hustle just brought me here, this song brings me back to happier times! Love it!
Questlove is such a crazy good drummer, even his simple beats sound amazing
Always found him a drummers drummer, nothing flashy just solid groove
so solid. i'm a drummer and whenever i try to keep up to even his simplest beats, it's always a challenge to get the groove just right.
This track right here proves The Roots are one of the best rap groups of all time & not even just that, it also showcases in other genres like rock.
Nice to hear this banger finally in a car commercial. Lol
This song is like chips: I can’t listen just once.
OMFGGG I FINALLYYY FOUND THIS SOONGGG!!!!
IVE BEEN LOOKING FOR IT FOR 5 YEARS NOW!!!
Regards from 2019....wtf
