    Questlove is an exceptionally musical human being. He's one of the tightest drummers who ever walked the earth and a pretty amazing DJ as well.
    Questlove sat down for fresh words of wisdom at the 2005 Red Bull Music Academy, from his family's extraordinary record stashes and De La Soul 's debut to the evolution of The Roots'...

    It's not just readers of his OkayPlayer website who respect this man as organic, straight forward and blessed with sharp wit and deep knowledge. If the music world has to be played like a game of chess, Questlove adopted some of his strategy from studying the most luminous African-American writers and critics from jazz to rap. With The Roots he experienced the ups and downs, twists and turns of a journey to reach that elusive combo: critical acclaim with commercial success.

    His choice of words were very impeccable. I love Quest's energy every time he gets interviewed. This was a treat to real soulquarian fans. Since he was living, it would have been the shit to see Dilla up there with him, but obviously, he was very sick at the time, so it's more than understood y he's not. Overall, dope ass interview!!!!!!!!!!!

    There are people (die hard fans) that look for those details that he's supremely focused on though, is there anyone else focused on the bigger picture to create balance for the group as a whole? His ear is so honed as well to where he can hear the samples, breaks, beats, etc (brilliant)
