Review by Ridiculoid Sep 14, 2006 (edited over 3 years ago)

referencing Game Theory, CD, B0007222-02

G-R-E-A-T release by The Roots, probably the record they were trying to do since 'Phrenology' and without any of the dull moments that made 'The Tipping Point' such and unfocused, so-so effort. Long time past the boundaries of Hip Hop, 'Game Theory' blends the social consciousness of all their previous efforts with an approach that has more in common with Funkadelic than, say, Beastie Boys. Soulful and joyful, it delivers the funk, soul, rock and everything in between, showing an incredible amount of talent, musicianship and production skills wether to build hard hitting rants or intimate atmospheres. And the rhymes are ace too! Fantastic, a must
