Finished Questlove's autobiography - Mo' Meta Blues - and loved it. Now I better understand why I dig The Roots: they are both a group - a musical collective - AND a hip-hop group dedicated to the spirit of the blues, soul and the best of rock and roll. That is, they are an anti-consumerist, populist hip-hop band in an era of greed. Freakin' brilliant.
