Grammy award winning hip-hop trailblazers The Roots releases their new album RISING DOWN. Known for their prolific lyrics and live instrumentation, the Legendary Philadelphia crew have firmly established themselves as a band with uncompromised artistic control and integrity. With RISING DOWN, the band's 10th album release, The Roots continue to take bolder steps adding new depths and range to their repertoire. This darkly funky, politically charged release is the product of more than a year of recording and includes a slew of complimentary guest appearances by Common, Chrisette Michele, Talib Kweli, Dice Raw, Peedi Peedi, Mos Def, Styles P and Fall Out Boys Patrick Stump.
