The Roots in their pre-Jimmy ~~Kimmel~~ Fallon days, and even now, are my favourite musical group. Black Star is another duo I would raise to that level as well.
Taking a look at this page, for the Last Poets, who influenced Saul Williams, it's a veritable who's who of artists I love: Wu-Tang, Public Enemy, Brand Nubian, KRS-ONE, Guru, Mos Def & Talib Kweli.
e: I stand corrected.
Fallon, not Kimmel.
I stand corrected.
I knew they were on late night with one of the Jimmies. The band they are is not tied to how they pay the bills. Funny thing is, I can imagine Fallon's face, but not Kimmel's.
The band they are is 1987 - 2007 for me. The last album of theirs I picked up was Undun in 2011.
I think heβs right, itβs his favorite group!
Yeah, I'm still a fan of the group. Not too attached to their host.
