The Roots have got some videos out for new song "Birthday Girl" featuring vocals from Fall Out Boy's Patrick Stump. Let me say that I thoroughly enjoy this song upon first listen. HOWEVER, I get the uneasy feeling that this is going to turn into "Cupid's Chokehold pt. II," albeit with better lyrics. I'm afraid it will wear out its welcome before its time. I can just imagine places like Summit playing it up to four times in a single summer night. This song will not appear on the Roots' forthcoming album, although I'm sure it'll make its way into some sort of separate digital release. Either way, watch the video and enjoy while it still feels fresh.
