From Philly street corner buskers to perpetually touring live to late-night television house band, legendary hip-hop group The Roots have never been one to rest on their laurels. After more than 15 years the critically acclaimed, award-winning band continues to reinvent themselves as their ninth studio album, 'How I Got Over', clearly shows.

Indeed, 'How I Got Over' features contributions from My Morning Jacket's Jim James, Joanna Newsom, Monsters of Folk, Little Brother's Phonte, Dice Raw, P.O.R.N., John Legend, and Jazzyfatnastees' Mercedes Martinez.
