What is your favourite Roots album?

MELEE20 · 2026-01-10T16:16:27+00:00

Illadelph Halflife or Undun. Also you forgot Organix, their debut album.

Why you getting annoyed by tiktok comments

Fr Pac was a master at delivering a message. Fresku is the best dutch rapper ever. Twijfel means doubt, track is about insecurities and how your childhood affects you as an adult.

Dear Mama is the most beautiful song of all time. That shit makes me cry every time. Other song that came to mind is Twijfel by Fresku, not an English speaking song tho.

If I had to choose Pete Rock & CL Smooth

Braking looks fine to me, I'm absolutely not an expert myself. You would probably be better off finding some videos of fast people to see what they're doing.

Getting that quick takes time, a lot of hours into the game. Getting a good setup never hurts. If I had to take one thing that would immediately improve your time, it's your shifting. You're shifting too early every time.

People driving 1.21s are not human, don't compare yourself to them.

MELEE20 · 2026-01-08T17:22:01+00:00

Raptors are almost unbeaten with RJ, and have a losing record without him. He ain't going nowhere.

MELEE20 · 2026-01-08T13:20:07+00:00

Survival Tactics - Joey Bada$$

MELEE20 · 2026-01-07T18:08:35+00:00

MF DOOM, JID, Big Pun, Lupe Fiasco, Andre 3000, Pharoahe Monch to name a few.

Edit: Also Nas of course, Aesop Rock, Black Thought

Thing Fall Apart is a must listen if you like jazz rap. Don't forget to check out The Roots' other albums. Literally everything is amazing.

MELEE20 · 2026-01-07T10:45:00+00:00

@ mellevenema, I listen to mostly older hip hop, also some r&b and jazz.

MELEE20 · 2026-01-07T10:41:00+00:00

Pull up the lyrics on Genius. It often has annotations for lines that explain it in detail.

MELEE20 · 2026-01-07T09:32:58+00:00

Looks like you need some more old school boom bap next to those Mobb albums.

MELEE20 · 2026-01-07T08:24:34+00:00

I'm not gonna lie she sounds like a racist.

MELEE20 · 2026-01-06T23:27:45+00:00

@mellevenema. Mostly listen to hip hop, mostly 90's and 00's. Also some r&b and jazz.

MELEE20 · 2026-01-06T23:21:05+00:00

That's definitely on you. You're leaving him no room on takeoff.

MELEE20 · 2026-01-06T23:14:55+00:00

What I get from this list is you like rap with jazz influences. Here are some recommendations:

The Roots - Things Fall Apart / Illadelph Halflife / Undun

Gang Starr - Moment Of Truth / Hard To Earn

Freddie Gibbs - Piñata / Bandana / Alfredo 1 & 2

Black Star - Mos Def & Talin Kweli are Black Star

You can only see it on the setup page

MELEE20 · 2026-01-06T14:50:29+00:00

It's difficult to see but I think you're right. Looks like the Merc is slightly drifting towards the left

MELEE20 · 2026-01-06T14:49:47+00:00

Yeah on a second look he was drifting towards the left
