Thirty years after The Roots revolutionized hip-hop with their groundbreaking debut Do You Want More?!!!??!, the legendary Philadelphia collective returned to their roots in spectacular fashion. The Roots Come Alive Too: DYWM30 Live At Blue Note NYC captures the magic of their historic 2025 residency at New York's iconic Blue Note Jazz Club, where they performed their seminal album in its entirety for the first time in decades.
This essential Record Store Day release showcases The Roots at their most vibrant, featuring special guest appearances from longtime collaborators Ursula Rucker, Dice Raw, and Rahzel, the Godfather of Noise. The intimate Blue Note setting allowed the group's signature live instrumentation to shine, blending hip-hop, jazz, soul, and funk in a way that many fans consider even more dynamic than their celebrated 1999 live album.
