The Roots listening session for their latest album ‘How I Got Over’ was lastnite. I’m sure I don’t need to tell you that I replaced the H2O in my body with cognac because you already know that. This project is long awaited from them, at least on my side. I loved the ‘Rising Down’ album they put out back in 2008.
My homeys Dice Raw, Truck North and STS were in the building along with Questlove and Black Thought. An offshoot of the Roots movement is this rap band called The Money Makin’ Jamboys. Think of SlaughterHouse level lyricism coming thru with a Philadelphia flair.
Money Making Jam Boys!!! from Bee Jay on Vimeo.
This rap collective is different from SlaughterHouse because none of these dudes feel the pressure to prove themselves. There’s just a quiet confidence in their mannerisms and their style. I’m super hype for the Money Makin’ Jamboys project due out this fall. They’ll be on stage at the Roots picnic in Philly. Signup with Philly 360° for the chance to come to the picnic on an all expense paid trip.
Jamboys will mos def be in the building.
