Insert some white dad named like Jacob:

oh my son really likes that real rappity rap, his favorite group are The Roots. They are from the jimmy fallon show, I listen to them sometimes too, though I'm more of a Will Smith guy :smugbiden:

I’ve always thought their music was boring and that Mos and Common made much more compelling and interesting music as far as “conscious rappers.” Having said that, on a purely technical level Black Thought is one of the greatest emcees of all time
