Title: Booooorrrriiinnnngggg
Product review: I've been listening to The Roots since the beginning, and I'm just not feeling this album. There are a couple OK cuts that keep me from just throwing it out, but it's really not good. They don't do what they used to do really well, the subtle organic hip hop, and they don't do anything new that's interesting, it sounds like a series of tunes attempting to copy other artists, and in the end, it's only "different for different's sake." If you've never heard The Roots before, this isn't the album that would win you over, definitely check out previous albums. Like basically all the ones before, actually. It's great that they're stretching out, but they've proven time and time again that they can do better than this.
