This shit leaked awhile ago, but I havent seen a thread on it in here. Dudes at an underground hip hop board are fiending off the shit, but I'm just thinking its ok. Granted, I have only given it one listen.

Anybody else have this and got some thoughts on it?

worst Roots album so far. I love the Roots, but their last 3 have been consistently doo doo. Organix through Things Fall Apart are all classics, but Phrenology, The Tipping Point and Game Theory dont do anything at all for me.

I changed my mind, Game Theory is tight as fuck. Bad first impression I guess.

I was gonna say ...
cus the album ain't that bad
I think its actually pretty tight..
good flow and trnasitioning of the tracks and tight beats if you like roots type ah beats..
I like how they sampled a part of the beat from "i got 5 on it" in that "don't feel right" song...pretty sick!

this album is aight, i guess. Whatever that means nowadays. I'm just not feelin it. Its great that they do live instruments, woopy doo, but they r talented as fuck. For some reason i never felt the Roots. Outta 5 i'd give it a 3.0. Only because they're not talking about crack, slabs and jewels.

thats an interpolation from the horns on Jungle Boogie.

It's far from "aight". LOL! ROFL!
