The Roots have been at it for 19 years. They've been hip-hops premiere live band, they were the house band in Spike Lee's Bamboozled, they scored monster hits with Erykah Badu ("You Got Me") and Cody Chestnutt ("Seed 2.0") and are now the house band for Late Night with Jimmy Fallon. Some footage surfaced this week of The Roots' first live show ever from 1993. Check out the clips.

Feel Good Fridays:  Re:Generation

DateFriday, November 4, 2011 at 9:00AM

The Re:Generation Music Project is an effort to pair up unlikely collaborators and see what happens.  Not necessarily a new idea (anyone remember the Judgement Night Soundtrack?) but a good one.  Peep the trailer below and then listen to Mark Ronson with Erykah Badu, Mos Def, Trombone Shorty, members of the Dap Kings and drummer Zigaboo Modeliste.  Fresh.
