The Roots latest CD, How I Got Over, is incredible!! It is thee inspirational soundtrack to free thinkers| artists| entrepreneurs| purveyors of life. How I Got Over is mature, refined and superbly executed. From the beautiful melodic intro, that instantly puts you in a Ramp-style trance, each song on the album builds upon the previous with dope beats, introspective lyrics and memorable choruses.
