The Tipping Point

by The Roots

Pivoting from the sprawling, experimental nature of 'Phrenology', the legendary Philadelphia band favors a tighter, more direct approach heavily influenced by classic breakbeats. Black Thought delivers sharp, commanding lyricism over Questlove's crisp, in-the-pocket drumming, leaning into accessible, soul-drenched hip-hop jams.
