I haven't listened to a Roots album since Rising Down. Where should I pick back up?

How I Got Over is the last classic hip hop album, as far as I'm concerned.

I didn't really fukk with GT like that. I just remember that the production felt a little too clean/shiny for my tastes but I might have to revisit it. Undun is just starting and I have feeling I'm about to start the summer in a legendary way.

Game Theory for me was the beginning of them having the harder edge that they perfected on Rising Down. Rising Down was the perfect followup to it.

Illadelf HalfLife
Things Fall Apart
Game Theory
Rising Down
How I Got Over
Undun

In that order. Just to get a gist of how consistent they are. I think that's they're more focused conceptual lyrically shyt. My top roots albums. But I would say Undun was some life changing deep shyt for me. Touched a nygga soul.

Then visit

Organix
Do You Want More
Phrenology
The Tipping Point

Those are the albums that have gems here and there and a more laid back feel.

That's basically their whole catalog. Ima big Roots fan sorry lol.
