THE ROOTS Schallplatten & CDs

Review: Questlove's legendary The Roots have put out some of hip-hop's most crucial albums, with socio-political wordplay and timeless live grooves. It is those classic instrumentals that now get served up on four sides of vinyl for this limited pressing, and all have been remastered since last time. 23 years after this album first dropped, these beats are still hard to beat and range from dusty boom bap to more sunny neo-soul and plenty in between. A vital addition to any hip-hop head's collection.

Review: Sometime sis feels like The Roots is one of the most underrated yet important groups in hip hop. Musically and lyrically they were always cut from a different cloth. Do You Want More?!!!?! was their second full length and it landed in January 1995 on DGC Records, It was their first outing on a major after the success of their debut and is often talked about as a classic of the genre. This newly remastered trifold, triple vinyl repress has been remastered from the original tapes. It comes with bonus tracks curated by Questlove, plus rare photos, essays by Questlove and Black Thought, and even a track-by-track commentary.
