Just landed this baby home and it hit the record player immediately. It's good so far (on side b), more back to the old roots, at least if you compare it to the tipping point. I was kind of expecting them to go down some time now, and with the tipping point and this being so close together in time, I was expecting something half-assed.. however, that could also be the reason why I'm liking it thus far; I had no high hopes, but as far as I'm concerned, this proves that the roots won't ever die and that I'll be at their retirement home concert! are some samples for you bitches! |

excellent record... i can't seem to get enough of it in one spin, i'm playing it on repeat. it's my first Roots' album so far so i can't compare it to the others yet, but i'm tempted to check out more. is a pretty cool video medley of three tracks from the album. |

I've had it for a few weeks and love it. It's straight hip-hop taking it back to the illadelph era. The Roots hold a special place in rap that no-one can touch. They truly take hiphop further than any other group. |

you should get the rest of them! Illadelph halflife is classic! Things fall apart is a great listen, do you want more and phrenology are awesome listens and you can get the girls to shake their booties to it, but for the most shaking action, you need the tipping point. All are recommended! great link, thanks! |

I'm listening to it again right now! After that I'll keep on going through the roots' history backwards before I go out for some good jazz later tonight! |

THIS SHIT SERIOUSLY ROCKS! (And I have never heard any Roots tracks before!) |

because it's not tagged 'idm'? |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
no, because it was tagged hip-hop, and I'm very, very "careful" with hip-hop. It's a good way to start, I hope. |

There's lots of brilliant and awesome hip hop out and about! You need to dig up The Roots using some Common sense, maybe with a little help from A Tribe Called Quest and Pharoahe Monch, but don't forget to add some of that Blackalicious sexy shit from Talib Kweli. |

I bought "The Tipping Point" because I've herad you sayin' good stuff about The Roots. Grrrrrrrrrrr!!! I never ever spin that fucker. Is it their worst? |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
It's not my favourite exactly, no, but even as their worst, it's very good, and I still spin it quite often... they're some skilled motherfuckers, they are! |
||||||||
|
|

| |||||||||
|
|
Not for me! |
||||||||
|
