Musings: Black Thought Dominates

Have you guys checked out that Roots Mixtape trey put up? I've been listening to that a bit and one thing is clear: Black Thought is a beast. He's straight up eating people alive on their own songs. I was listening to the Clipse "Grindin", feeling it because it's what played at every frat party I went to freshman year, and then it happened...Black Thought started rapping. I thought to myself "he's not on this song, what's going on here?" What was going on was he was bringing the HEAT. I think even the Clipse were kind of pumped with how much he was rippin it. Watch it again and peep their faces: they love it.

I was never that into roots until the last few years, but i'm making up for lost time. Good music.

Musings: A New IIIrd World Feature

Sup readers,

My name is Tom and I will be joining IIIrd World to add some sick ass insight and hilarity. It looks like trigga trey and MTAk47 are more than holding their own when it comes to finding beastly mixtapes and thought provoking environmental content, so what's an additional blogger to do? Well I spent some time thinking about it and I decided I'm gonna hop on this train and serve some occassional and (hopefully) entertaining analysis of all things IIIrd World. So look forward to me discussing hip hop, the environment, well...mostly hip hop.

And if ya don't know, now ya know!
