Anyone else excited about that new Roots album?
I was never a huge fan, i liked some songs here and there, i really liked some songs of game theory, but I feel like this new album is going to be monumental. dare i say, a classic. Its really effective because it takes popular aspects of mainstream hip hops like the synths and metallic drums and fuses it with boom bap. I feel like more of the "strictly clubbangerz" fans will be open to it and at the same time its still real ill music. They also got a bunch of guests on it this time, which changes up the sound and kinda shows how dope blackthought is too. Im really happy to hear mos def rappin again and its not about some silly stuff like bush knocked down the towers or rewindin video tapes. Im also feeling the theme for the album which is basically ni66as takin over black america. The album cover is supposedly an allusion to obama winning the white house. and the music videos are just clips of them beating up whiteys. clearly i approve. so anyway, my question, your thoughts on this album from what you've heard so far. (oh and im not counting birthday girl, lets not speak about that).
Here are some samplers --
The Roots f. Mos Def, Styles P - Rising Down (Hum Drum)

I look forward to every new Roots album. Which is a bit odd since I don't think that they release *GREAT* albums. I mean, don't get me wrong, they are among the best. But their albums cannot possibly compare to their live shows. After you've seen them live, hearing a studio from the album is almost like a tease.

haven't listened to any previews cause i'd rather just hear a brand new album all at once.
But im sure it'll be dope like any other roots album

Have to listen to those later. I've got every Roots LP except their first and last.

sound good.much better than game theory & their abstract rock sh*t. However nothing will compare to illadelph halflife imo.
