:: The Ultimate Roots Post ::
As you can see The Bootis Connection is STILL up and runnin and its thanks to all the love and support I have received through emails and the comment section in the last few days. I couldn't believe it...100+ comments in like 3 days?? Never knew headz were coming through my little spot here like that...its pretty dope to know that peoples fron the globe swing by my spot to see what I'm throwing up.
So anyway, I'm here to stay and lets continue on with the next Ultimate post...The Legendary Roots Crew!!
The year, 1987... The place, Philadelphia... The group, The Legendary Roots Crew. Whether you like hip hop or not, everyone who hears The Roots instantly gains a certain respect and admiration for these dudes. Known for their unique ability to combine the soul and rhythm of a jazz band with the raw lyrical artform of rap, The Roots have been moving crowds for nearly 2 decades now. With 9 LP's under the belt this group has had their far share of ups and downs, plus group drama, but to this day are one of the few hip hop groups from back in the day that still produce relevant FIRE!!
Joiming forces in 1987, The original Roots members included, Black Thought, ?uestlove, Malik B, Hubb, and Scott Storch (yeah thats right, Storch the producer got his start with The Roots!!). What many people don't know is that while The Roots are from Philly, around 1992 they upped and left to London England and began performing across Europe.
In order to get by they recorded and released the now infamous black album, Organix, which went on to sell 150,000. With an independant release like that you know it wasn't long before labels were bangin down the doors. The band signed with DGC Records, went back to the states and released Do You Want More?!!!??! in 1995. While it may have been one of the best Roots albums to date, it did't receive too much love as headz just weren't ready yet.
One year later, enter Illadelph...Oooooweeee...now this album was one for the ages. This was the joint that brought the crew to the forefront of rap, earning their first Billboard position. With tracks like Clones, Sections and What They Do, this album is a MUST have for any hip hop lover.
After a 3 year hiatus and rumours of a break up, the Roots came hard in 1999 with the release of Things Fall Apart. Many people will remember this album for the contoversial cover art, or should I say cover artS. Five front covers were released for this album, all depicting eye opening images of sadness and disaster, from a dead man's bloody hand to a crying child.
After the success of Things Fall Apart and lending their musical genius to Jay-Z for his MTV unplugged score, The Roots Crew were under pressure. They released Phrenology in '03 and to the dismay of many fans, parted away from the typical jazzy sound to a more rock/electronica feel. Not my cup of tea, but hey it was an experiment... either hate it or love it!
2004 brought The Tipping Point for The Roots. Not only the title of their album, but the name spoke words for what was going down behind the scenes. DJ Scratch left the group and Geffen, their label at the time, was giving them issues and demanding more album sales. The result was the most commercial album to date. While The Roots went back to their jazzy feel style, I can't say I wasn't a little disappointed with this record. It just didn't feel right.
Prsent day... Game Theory. This album touches straight on the political mess of the USA today. This is the first joint off Jay-z's Def Jam, and its a goodie for me, I love this album. I won't ruin it for ya'll so I'll just stop there... trust me and go buy this shit...its dope!!!
