View Full Version : The Roots' new album...
Phrenology
Anyone picking this up today? Have any of you sampled it yet?
I'm going to let it marinate for a week, then I'll post my official Phrenology review.

it just wasnt as afrocentric as their earlier shit, like "do you want more"... TFA was lacking progression IMO, although it did have a couple songs that were good... i miss rahzel!!!
Roots - Phrenology... kicks ass, I like "Break You Off." :beer

i was really disappointed with this album. it seems like they've lost their soul and become too rock-oriented... don't get me wrong i love the live instrumentation.. but there's a difference between hip hop on live instruments and just rock with somebody flowing over it. it by far wasn't up to par with the previous releases.
