The Roots (Literally) Light It Up

With no chorus, a disorienting Black Thought verse smothered in mic fuzz, and a video where the band douses a kidnapped white dude with gasoline before lighting a match, the forbidding “75 Bars (Black’s Reconstruction)” will sadly not end up toppling Flo Rida from Billboard or Chris Brown from TRL, but the band can take some comfort that their latest anti-pop offering moves to one of the nastiest combinations of bass and drum you’re likely to hear on a major label record this year. Especially the bass. [OnSmash]
