    "comment": "Black Thought is the longtime MC of The Roots. Released in 2006, \"Clock With No Hands\" is considered one of two favorite verses from Black Thought -- \"You ask me my two favorite verses that I’ve written, and it’s one of these verses and the first verse on 'Dear God 2.0.' I was able to articulate everything that I was feeling when I’m not always able to do so. Historically, I’ve had to just settle for being able to approximate what it is that I want to say, because I can’t find the words. But with this, I was able to get it all off of my chest\" \n\nCheck out the rest of this Rolling Stone interview with Black Thought where he describes 20 Roots songs that define his life including \"Clock With No Hands\": https://www.rollingstone.com/music/music-lists/roots-black-thought-songs-1107397/proceed-1995-1107402/",
