Jurassic 5 (rap, album, the roots, songs, youtube)

~~TheUsedToolguy~~ · 02-22-2007, 09:28 PM

I really like this group, they're a little like The Roots who are a good rap group, but personally I like J5 a lot better. Their album Power in Numbers is off the hook, w/ the song A Day At the Races being one of best hip/hop songs I've ever heard. Coincidentally, it's my fav. song to listen to while driving. Anybody else like them? I'm trying to get an attachment for this 1, but I don't know how.

they're done, they broke up.

I thought they just came out w/ a new song w/ Dave Matthews.
If it's true all I can say is I had fun while it lasted, they had a really new sound.

Old thread but I was playing Power In Numbers the other day. What a damn fine album. What else should I check out?

I quite enjoy putting their debut on from time to time, if you dont have that one.

I only have Power In Numbers. When Hip Hop is good, it is REALLY good and I forgot how good they were.
