I don't get Kevin Hart. Kinda reminds me of a black Dane Cook.
I'm not saying you're right or I agree with you, but you're onto something.
I think Kevin Hart is funny sometimes, but what he lacks I think is any kind of potency. The potency that many great comedians have when it comes down to the social commentary of our society.
Kevin Hart just does his storytelling thing.

Yeah also that's another stand up comedian I'm sure the dude would love.
And Kevin Hart sucks ass. All he's useful for was a couple vine soundbites. It hurts to see him be the rocks new sidekick.
definitely

he's like martin lawrence....without the funny tv show, or bad boys franchise, or do the right thing.
hell i bet if he dressed as a fat lady he'd be the worst to do that as well.

People go super hard on Kevin Hart but I don't have a problem with him. His storytelling is pretty good and he's funny more for the way he says things than what he's saying. Very little substance but as junk food comedy goes, you could do a lot worse.
Plus I thought him and The Rock did a good job in Central Intelligence tbh.

Are you saying he is the Thugga of comedians?

I'm listening to O.C. World....Life right now.
This seems to be an underrated gem of an album. It's got a mix of Boom Bap bass, but a very jazzy sensibility. I dig it. A lot.

Gonna check it out, in the mood for something smooth while I'm studying.
Personal classic.
His movies are shit, but some of his standup is actually pretty funny.
He also used to be funny at all-star weekend, though the NBA's starting to milk that a bit too much.

One of the GOAT time travel movies yes.
Man, why doesn't Netflix Germany have the The Art of Organized Noize documentary :/
Nice so far, thanks.

Do you know The Roots' Do You Want More?!!!??!, btw? One of my absolute faves. Gonna bump it again after this O.C., been a while. Had a huge impact on me as a kid.

While we're at it. Let's rank Roots albums, brehs.
Do You Want More?!!!??! > Things Fall Apart > The Tipping Point > Illadelph Halflife > Game Theory > Phrenology > the rest

+1 to all of this.
But I do have a special place in my heart for the incredible excess that is Bad Boys 2, and how Martin and Will play total assholes in that movie.
His TV show is still absolutely classic though. I can still watch 95% of it and laugh. Doesn't fall off until the very end when Martin and Gina weren't on screen together anyone

Lakers fan, so no. I think he honestly should have stayed put in OKC, would have been best for him. I don't know.....I think the lineup will somehow be deterred by his presence...I have a bad feeling about this.
Eh.....sort of. I know it's considered a classic, but I've listened to it a couple times but usually flicked it off. Black Thought is one of my favorite MCs ever. Maybe I'll listen to it again sometime down the road, but I haven't even heard Game Theory yet and I'll listen to that album down the line first.
Halflife and Things Fall Apart are both brilliant, though.
I bumped his one tape from awhile back, really enjoyed it.
616 is such a banger, goddamn
also, anyone who liked Do You Want More? should peep Organix...it's even jazzier and gets overlooked

Game Theory was the last time The Roots did anything interesting instrumentally. I like undun but overall it feels kind of safe outside of the concept.
It's a shame. I may not like Kendrick but instrumentally TPAB is brilliant. That's the type of stuff I'd love to hear Black Thought rap on. Or Thugger.

Illadelph, Things Fall Apart and Game Theory are all on the same level to me, maybe Game Theory shades it given A Clock With No Hands is one of my favourite tracks ever.
Then it'd be How I Got Over or Rising Down, then the rest.

Wooord. Loved the album. I was listening to it all day while I was playing Dragon Quest VIII back in the days, good times...

I was listening to the Roots for quite a while until I realized that Malik B was their second rapper. I always thought he was featured on their albums.
LOL, I was just listening to the song on Organix where Blackthought says "Scott Storch y'all, he on the keys right".
Ye for sure, someone else can probably explain it better but I'll try.
So Kevin Durant is like a top 3 player in the world that was on Thunder, a team that was one game away from making the Finals this year. The team is already really good and was up 3-1 against Warriors (the team that just broke the NBA record for best regular season with 73 wins and only 9 losses)
The Warriors rallied back and beat the Thunder in the end. Kevin Durant then became a free agent this summer
And today he decided to go to the very same team he was up 3-1 against, and lost to. A team that was already a championship caliber team. It's basically a superteam now.
Hmm we'll see, and yeah being a Lakers fan rn sucks
I have faith in Russel, Ingram, and Randle tho
