The Roots are at the top of a very short list of groups that continue to break new ground and push the culture forward. It's actually amazing to watch them do their thing, consistently, for so many years. To me, Black Thought is a top 5 lyricist and I struggle to understand anyone who would disagree, lol. To honor 'Things Fall Apart' being released on this day in 1999, I uploaded the DJ Jazzy Jeff-mixed promotional tape, 'Things Fall, A Preview' for your listening pleasure. Be sure to purchase or revisit a copy of 'Things Fall Apart' today, and give Black Thought his all flowers while he can smell them! Apologies in advance if the mix gets blocked in certain countries, ya know, restrictions apply!
