So, maybe I’m not hip enough or familiar enough with the writers over at Brightest Young Things, but somebody please tell me Peter is being ironic when he swears he has no idea who The Roots are. Please? Someone make me feel better?
Anyway, BYT is giving away a bunch of tickets to The Roots’ show at the 9:30 Club next week, so you should enter.
Tiffany Baxendell Bridge is an Internet enthusiast and an incurable smartass. When not heckling the neighborhood political scene on Twitter, she can be found goofing off with her ukulele, Bollywood dancing, or obsessing about cult TV. She is That Woman With the Baby In the Bar.
Tiffany lives in Brookland with her husband Tom, son Charlie, and two high-maintenance cats. Read why Tiffany loves DC.
Given the stylistic allusion to Carles and reference to the meta-humour of the work in the concluding note, one can deduce that this blog post should be interpreted as a joke. As to if The Roots have released relevant music in a long time – or, some would say, a thoroughly consistent and valuable album ever – remains an open question.
