The Roots - Things Fall Apart

review: The Roots are phenomenal, (cerebral) the most musically gifted hip-hop group, This record jives and grooves (uncompromising) like very few ever have, especially hip-hop ones. (smooth) "Things Fall Apart" could be a avant-garde (street-smart) jazz album, if the vocals were removed. (provocative) But MCs Black Thought and Malik B are like instruments themselves, (confident) deftly flowing along with the rest of the group while (Laid-Back/Mellow) displaying incredible lyric dexterity.
