Seattle Theatre Group (STG) presents The Roots on Thursday, April 9, 2009 at 8:00pm at the Paramount Theatre.
Though popular success has largely eluded the Roots, the Philadelphia group showed the way for live rap, building on Stetsasonic's 'hip-hop band' philosophy of the mid-'80s by focusing on live instrumentation at their concerts and in the studio. Though their album works have been inconsistent affairs, more intent on building grooves than pushing songs, the Roots' live shows are among the best in the business.
