They're Going. Goin'...

Advantages: Lots of big tunes
Disadvantages: Nothing specific

“The Tipping Point” came out in 2004, and was the sixth album to be released from the Philadelphia Hip Hop band, The Roots. Led by ?uestlove on the drums and Black Thought as the MC, this sees further developments as Ben Kenney and Scratch had left the group.

Before then, The Roots had been making albums that never hit big except within dedicated hip-hop circles. In my opinion, the earlier Roots albums were revolutionary and it's a shame that with Tipping Point, they have started to lose their unique sound. The title refers to the point at which change is manifest in different ...
...Having said that. the Tipping Point is not as revolutionary as the others. Some have said that Tipping Point is too commercialised and too normal. But I later realised that Tipping Point wasn't about revolutionising hip-hop but rather a tirbute to the history of hip-hop.
