The Roots are a music group which integrates all styles of music into their show. I saw them live at the Showbox in Seattle WA, and they surprised me with each song. Their main genre is hip hop, but they also switched it up with reggae, blues, alternative rock, classic rock, and oldies. There have been rumors that they might stop touring for awhile, so if you get a chance I would suggest to catch their act. They are also currently the house band for the Jimmy Kimmel Show, where they get to "play" with their music and use their unique style in skits and to interact with Jimmy and the audience. It's really fun! In my opinion The Roots are the best part of the show and seeing them would probably be the only reason that I would go. I believe that The Roots have a sound that everyone can appreciate, and would recommend their album to anyone.
