...I didn't drop the ball, just bobbled it a little bit (lol). The Roots dropped this past Tuesday. Going for more of a Hip-Hop Appeal this month! Rumor is that "Rising Down" is their last album as a group. I'll remain a nonbeliever to that though!
Guest appearences by Mos Def, Talib Kweli, Common, Styles P, and Chrisette Michele.
Do peep and blog as soon as you can! Happy Listening!!!

First off, I'm assuming that all of you music connoisseurs on here have ventured to a Roots concert and have seen them put on a PHENOMENAL show (your "bucket list" should include attending at least 15-20 Roots concerts).
What consistently amazes me about this group is their versatility on stage and on their head-banging albums. Although "Rising Down" has it's dark moments, the Roots never let you down with innovative tunes like "75 Bars," "I Will Not Apologize," & "Singing Man." They know how to bring the complexity+simplicity of music to the forefront and they do it with an audacious attitude. They extend beyond the narrow confines of the hip hop musical classification and present pure & genuine music.
Add "Rising Down" to your collection immediately!!!
