The Roots bevestigen volgende plaat

De opvolger van '... And Then You Shoot Your Cousin' is bevestigd. Questlove (The Roots) heeft verklaard dat ze maar liefst tweehonderddrieënzestig nieuwe tracks hebben voor wat voorlopig de titel 'End Game' heeft meegekregen. 

Tekst en uitleg:

…Usually when we get to 100 songs, he’s like, ‘Guys. You have 100 songs. There’s 14 really good songs in these 100. Let’s stop and concentrate on the 14.’ Right now, we’re at 263. But ideas keep coming. I made the promise that by November 1, we are stopping. And we’re just going to pick a good 14. And I’m certain by then, it’ll be 400 songs.”

En passant liet Questlove zich ook uit over zijn nieuwe boek dat, als alles goed verloopt, in mei 2018 verschijnt : 

“…my fourth book deals a lot with creativity and silence because I feel like the one element that we don’t utilize that’s necessary for creativity is silence and boredom…Because now we can just entertain ourselves at the click of a button. The problem with that, with always stimulating your mind and your brain, is that there’s no downtime. Some of the best people we had in life had silence and thoughts and boredom to create things. And so, my book editor was like, ‘Put that in 20,000-word form.’”
