The Legendary: A Film About The Roots

During the latter part of 2010 Jeff Baraka and I had the opportunity to cover a number of concerts on the Hennessey Artistry Tour with the Legendary Roots Crew.
I have always been a huge fan of the music created by the best band to ever grace the Hip-Hop genre. In this film I wanted to not only highlight the versatility of a group that has played with most everyone in the industry. But also capture candid moments of real human beings just trying to share the gifts they have been given to the best of their abilities.
In addition to the Hennessey Tour, we got an chance to sit down with drummer ?uestlove at the House of Blues in Chicago as the Roots gave the audience a glimpse of why they are considered by many the hardest working band in show biz. All and all the Roots have proven time again that they are indeed Legendary.

Joanna Newsom: dos duetos improváveis

A Joanna Newsom e os The Roots juntos? O que podia não passar de uma exótica fantasia, tornou-se realidade (e uma bela realidade) com "Right On", nona faixa de How I Got Over, o novo álbum dos The Roots.
É ouvir para crer!:




"We should shine a light on, a light on
Book I write on, write on, it's right on..."

Não um, mas sim dois novos singles da Legendary Roots crew. Colaborações com artistas como Dice Raw, Peedi Peedi, Phonte e Truck North. Embora estas duas musicas não sejam das que mais me agradam...estou com uma boa expectativa em relação ao próximo trabalho de ?uestlove e companhia :)

"During a Boogie Down Productions and Public Enemy concert, a young fan was killed in a fight; galvanized into action, KRS-One founded the Stop the Violence Movement.

The Roots – Dilla Joints (Mixtape)

"The legendary Roots-crew pay respect to the late and great J Dilla as they offer their renditions of the producer’s greatest hits. Easily the most sublime tribute to J Dilla we have seen to date. Great musicianship and the highest form of appreciation. Enjoy."
