Illadelph Halflife is probably my fav, but I have to admit Tipping Point is fire.
Why is this one the board four times?

Although Illadelph is their best IMO, Things Fall Apart is my fav.

I love all the Roots older stuff but the last one The Tipping Point is fresh and I love the direction of their music
1. Things Fall Apart
2. Do You Want More!!??!???!
3. Illadelph Halflife
all are 10/10 though, imo
the roots are pop music
Illadelph Halflife is my favorite but Things Fall Apart is great too. Other than those two, I don't really think any of their other work is even on that level but it is still good.
tipping point.....tight
1-Illadelph
2-Things Fall Apart
3-Tipping Point
4-Do You Want More
In the world I see, you're stalking elk through the damp canyon forest around the ruins of Rockefeller Center. You'll wear leather clothes that will last you the rest of your life. You'll climb the wrist-thick kudzu vines that wrap the Sears Tower. And when you look down, you'll see tiny figures pounding corn, laying strips of venison on the empty carpool lane of some abandoned superhighway.
What a fuckin queer this guy is..........ROOTS are on of the dopest groups of all time you fuckin herbOriginally Posted by brahma

2. Do You Want More??!!!!?!?!!?
3. Things Fall Apart
yeah! like "you wonīt belive the things iīve seen far beyond your wildest dreams... LALALALA" thatīs POP to me doe!Originally Posted by tical2000
same pocedure with
" i pushed my seed in the ... LALALA" thatīs simply POP/wannabe RoCK BS!
okay.. i see your points -- but what about " Donīt say nothin... LALALA" Damn brovas! the roots are even more pop to me than black eyed peas ...
ok.. we have different views on real rap music.... my opinion is... they donīt have real street flow, credibility, no true skillz and the voices of the chorus singers are just toooo comercial.... what about wu tang girls singing the chorus.-- THAT`S SOME REAL VOICES FROM THE STREET AND uhhhhhh i feel that... the roots is pop too me.. maybe cause i only heard around 15 tracks of em yet... but DAMN - i donīt try to hear more .... SORRY! i canīt really respect rappers who put a female singer/chorus in so many songs.
but donīt beef about different views... i respect ya opinions. i for personal like dipset much and half of you donīt like em-.. so... peace
Do you want more!!!
because this was the album that introduced me to them, its so jazzy, funky and has so much replay value.
But illadelphalife is probably their best work especially BT lyrically, but has'nt got much of that live vibe that Do you want more and Things fall apart have.
Just beacuase they're music isn't about killing, guns etc. or isnt grimey doesn't mean they're pop.
Black Thought is the most underrated emcee in existence and Do You Want More, Illadelph and Things Fall Apart are all classics. Organix and Tipping Point are both very good too, even Phrenology is more than solid.
