We were all pretty down on "Walk Us Uptown" back when this first came out but man do I love that song now. The whole record has held up really well, and is one of many I'm long overdue to revisit.

I can understand this feeling, they have always had a bit of an English class vibe to them (especially on their first few albums, I'd say), but I just love Black Thought so much as a lyricist and ?uestlove so much as a drummer that the stuff in between is almost immaterial to me (literally in some cases -- one of my favorite Roots tunes is "Web," which is just drums and vocals and a tiny bit of bass). How I Got Over is one of my favorite records of the 2010's.

I was blown away with the album when it came out, then totally forgot about it. Found the cd and it was such a joy to listen to.

And yes, i could get why someone would think The Roots are vanilla these days, with them working with fallon. It wasnt like that back in the day...they seemed a really cool indie band that made hip hop and funk. They talked about politics. Questlove is one of my fav drummers from all time.
