Can we go ahead and agree that Black Thought is severely underrated??? Him, Mos Def and Ludacris don’t get enough “Top 10″ love IMO.

Yeah, funny how DIME needed to put (The Roots) next to Black Thought…he’s ill and always clean on the mic, live or not…kind of fucked up he’s wearing a Yankees hat when the Phil’s are set to take them on though–does he think he’s Lebron or something?

three of the best mc’s of all time, for sure.
eminem’s rhymes are on another level though. maybe only pharoahe monch can get close in terms of just pure rhyming and assonance.

Who are those lackeys in the background just chilling? Why they need to be there? If they were spectators, then wouldn’t the people performing be looking at them instead of having some group of guys stare at their asses?
Eminem is the best…

BlackThought killed this… sounded the most natural on the beat… They’re all sick though, nice to see Em still has it in a semi-live setting.. and Mos as always is the bizness!

I never realized until this vid, but Black Thought with a hat and shades = Baron Davis’ clone.
