It is a shame that many of their own can't find the value in their music and message. But it just shows how far down the gutter the bad in our culture has taken some.
Keep up the good work Roots! There are some of your own that have love for ya and get every CD you make!

I copped "Phrenology", and as soon as I can find a legal copy for $10 or less, I'm getting "The Tipping Point" as well.

It seems that the hip hop group Black Eyed Peas is another group that is not well accepted by the black audience. They had a hit song during the summer of 2003 called "Where Is the Love?" and they are currently scoring well with the hit "Let's Get It Started." I never heard an urban station playing any of their music. I only hear their music on CHR stations.
