I've been to a lot of shows of bands that I've liked longer then the roots but the roots put on the best live show I've ever seen. it is magic schronzel!!! pho sho !!!
I wouldnt say underrated, they might not have consistent radio play but they're widely recognized by the music (not strictly hiphop) community as legends. They've been making their mark for years and years.

they always were against the daily mainstream and in my opinion on in the best to ever be in the game..pure true and beatiful hip hop nothing alse just stop talkin and listen
I think the roots didn't wanna be defined as jazz/funk/alternative. They never wanted to be, but possibly with the first few albums it possible that still began to happen. and so, they changed the game with the phrenology and the tipping point. They want to keep on being considered a hip-hop group, and so they changed the game to not be defined as anything alse but a hip-hop group, although to me they aren't your average hip-hop group.
hey krushman don't talk about phrenology, the tipping point and game theory because, even if still being good albums they ain't got shit with the first ones, I mean Organix, Do You Want More and most of all Illadelph Halflife, one of the best hip hop albums ever to me!
the roots are the best rap group around and still remain underground and not played on the radio and i like it that way...buy any cd i own game theory, phrenology and the tipping poing and they are all great cds
Black Thought- You know I'm certified sick/I came from the corner where nobody got shit/Took the cards I was dealt, turned it into hot spit/Now I'm not only a passenger, I'm in the cockpit. sick line from one of the most underrated
I guess there ok if you like that original sound that know one else has in rap. O yaeh they also play instruments instead of playing with there balls on stage.

i love my years of growin up on hiphop
1980 at age 8 - SUGAR HILL first album "RAPPERS DELIGHT"
1984 at age 12 - THE PEAK OF THE BREAKIN ERA & RUN-DMC arrived
1988 at age 17 - RAKIM, KOOL G.RAP, KANE, & KRS-1 was out
1993 at age 21 - WUTANG arrived
1995 at age 24 - EAST & WEST COAST RAP was at its peak, & the NEWYORK club seen was HOT
2003 at age 31 - G-UNIT & EMENEM was on FIRE
but now in 2008 at age 37, HIPHOP IS DEAD, but im fortunate to be young in its best years :)
