30 Minute Classic Freestyle Session

The Roots provided the live music for this freestyle session on WNYU sometime in the mid 90's.

The sound quality isn't as good as it could've been, being that I'm sure there weren't enough mics to properly set up and record. But still,this session is illll!

I'll do my best to list who all are rhyming here- 

Sadat X, L-Swift(Natural Elements), Lord Tariq(Money Boss Players), 

Dice Raw, Brotha Jeff X, Black Thought, Half A Mil(RIP), Dutchess,

After Dutchess,I can't call it. I know The Roots get back on the mic, but that's all I can say for sure. The cats are pretty amped and yelling a lot at this point. If you can name everyone after Dutchess, leave a list in the comments. The beat changes up 4 times throughout the session. All Roots renditions of classic beats we all know and love.
