mai sus sunt 3 linkuri (linkul de la F Forge merge sigur) de unde se poate descarca noul album Roots, care se pare ca a ajuns pe net mai mult sau mai putin intentionat. nu stiu daca e sau daca va ramane varianta finala sau nu, acum ca e pe multe torrente, desi tracklistul arata 'official'. dar in cel mai rau caz sunt piese roots noi, si asta nu are cum sa fie rau.

release date-ul oficial este 29 august


edit: si acum ca in sfarsit si ascult, gadem cum poa sa sune piesa #3, Game Theory. this IS hiphop!

bump that

Game Theory is the 6th studio album from Philadelphia Hip Hop group The Roots, their first on Def Jam Records, scheduled to hit shelves on August 29, 2006. The first single, "Don't Feel Right", was released online in May 2006 and is available for free download on the group's MySpace page (link). The album features guest appearances from Peedi Peedi and former Roots MC Malik B., who will be performing on 3 songs. The album closes with a song titled "Can't Stop This", an eight minute tribute to the late J Dilla.


Described by Ahmir "?uestlove" Thompson as "very mature, serious, and very dark". Unlike their two previous efforts, Phrenology and The Tipping Point, Game Theory combines The Roots progressive tendencies and lush, jazz influenced hiphop into a more homogenous and cohesive recording than past efforts had shown. In what could be a salute to a fellow progressive band, The Roots sample Radiohead's "You And Whose Army?" on the track "Atonement".


The subject material for Game Theory follows the more serious tone of the album, with topics ranging from the war in Iraq to violence in music. ?uestlove was quoted as saying ??€?There was too much going on that we couldn??€�t just sit back and not speak on it.??€?


Quoted from Rollingstone.com: "In this day and age, I'm kind of noticing that nobody in urban music really has the balls to just stop partying for one second," says ?uestlove. "I mean, partying is good and whatnot, and it's cool to get down, but I really think that 2006 called for a very serious record. This ain't the Debbie Downer record, or the political, save-the-world record, but this is definitely not the MC-based, battle-themed album that the Roots have been known for. This is our most serious record to date."

This album has been leaked online on July 14th, 2006.

Imi pare oarecum rau ca a scapat pe net asa de timpuriu. Nu-mi pot explica, decat daca a fost cu intentie. Sunt curios ce se va mai intampla pana la lansare, daca va ramane in forma asta sau ..

Pai fac badjucura de rapperii astia care apar peste noapte si isi fac clipuri numa cu femei, masini, etc....dar ei in realitate nu au nimik... deci mie imi place la nebunie...mai ales cand fug aia prin cartier si la un moment dat scrie "running from what?" :wink:
