the legendary roots crew
my order from okayplayer finally came in. i've anxiously been awaiting the new album from the roots. though game theory had been "leaked" onto to the internet awhile ago, i haven't heard any of it besides the lead single, don't feel right. i decided against popping the new album in at work because i felt i wanted to be able to actively listen to it, which doesn't really happen at work. instead i decided to listen to j.period's best of the roots mixtape that was included in the order. oohh ... this thing is HOT! it's not just a compilation of past good roots songs. there's a lot on here that i haven't heard before, including new songs and remixes with zion i, stevie wonder, and rakim ... to name a few. i CANNOT wait to get off work and toss the new album in ... though it'll be difficult to resist the temptation to listen to this mixtape for the rest of the day.
