TOBE NWIGWE | FRESH AIR W/ THE ROOTS

[@euge.g]

Tobe doesn't put his family on his back, he puts his family on his front.

[@gidgetmoore-hopper2286]

Dopest move ever!

[@KenpoKid77]

Literally, and constantly. Not just for show either, Sister Fat got serious bars, and Sister Nell is too nice on the tracks. I love how brother Tobe highlights the strength and beauty of Black women as a practice, not just a feature.

Not lying

[@ryjbecker]

"Tobe is the Kobe of lyrical generations. Words combine all of us while we all face separations. I'm white and I'm 40 yet my ears still caught the beat. I was gettin' pretty hungry then Tobe told me to 'Eat'!!!" He is such a fantastic artist, visionary as well as an amazing human being!!! I've followed him ever since the first time I heard "Eat". I grew up writing poems as a young kid and then rap & hip hop hit the scene when I was a teenager. So what does a white teenager try to do? Needless to say, I'm not a famous rapper. Lol! But Tobe has inspired me now to keep writing, and I have had some poems published after hearing "Eat". I found The Roots way back when in college by accident and have loved them ever since!!! This is such a great moment! Black Thought has also been such an inspiration for me, I owe them both so much love!!!!!!

[@creativeslink]

Yes! Tobe moves Culture forward!!

[@JorgeGonzalez-sx7fk]

culture isnt an object of worship. get your head right

[@creativeslink]

@@JorgeGonzalez-sx7fk culture is the collected experience of humanity. I don’t worship it I’m in awe of it. Tobe inherits the beats the genre he inherits the strength and love of a million mommas before the one he cherishes so. He elevates us through his additions to the tapestry of human culture rejecting the big rocks and false bravado crowding out the soul from rap hip hop. My head is on straight and tobe keeps my heart open.

[@danielomolewaogunsola1942]

Well, Bro. Thank you for this suggestion! I've listened to Tobe and I must confess, the track that attracted me was "Try Jesus, Not Me! The track is so honest. As regards collabo with naija artistes, I guess he should by all means get in touch with Burna Boy!!!

Tobe definitely reminds me of that generation of Hip Hop back when I graduated high school (1994). Dope lyricist. Period. Certainly the future of Hip Hop and most assuredly moving the culture forward. Keep giving honor to the Most High, Tobe and fam. I love how you represent Him and show people that you can walk the path Yahweh ordained for you, not need to sell out, be original and unique in your flavor, style, and delivery, and still be on 🔥. Lastly, I LOVE the love between Tobe and Fat (Ms. Marla's daughter 😉) and their family. Just beautiful. Love y'all. Much love from CA!
