░▓█████▓░╟─────────────────────────────────────RELEASE NOTES╢░▓█████▓░
░▓████▓░░║ ║░░▓████▓░
▄▀░████▓░▀║ One of the cornerstone albums of alternative ║▀░▓████░▀▄
▄▀░████▓░▀║ rap's second wave, Things Fall Apart was the ║▀░▓████░▀▄
▄▀░████▓░▀║ point where the Roots' tremendous potential ║▀░▓████░▀▄
▄▀░████▓░▀║ finally coalesced into a structured album that ║▀░▓████░▀▄
▄▀░████▓░▀║ maintained its focus from top to bottom. If the ║▀░▓████░▀▄
▄▀░████▓░▀║ group sacrifices a little of the unpredictability ║▀░▓████░▀▄
▄▀░████▓░▀║ of its jam sessions, the resulting consistency ║▀░▓████░▀▄
▄▀░████▓░▀║ more than makes up for it, since the record flows ║▀░▓████░▀▄
▄▀░████▓░▀║ from track to track so effortlessly. Taking its ║▀░▓████░▀▄
▄▀░████▓░▀║ title from the Chinua Achebe novel credited with ║▀░▓████░▀▄
▄▀░████▓░▀║ revitalizing African fiction, Things Fall Apart ║▀░▓████░▀▄
▄▀░████▓░▀║ announces its ambition right upfront, and ║▀░▓████░▀▄
▄▀░████▓░▀║ reinforces it in the opening sound collage. ║▀░▓████░▀▄
▄▀░████▓░▀║ Dialogue sampled from Spike Lee's Mo' Better ║▀░▓████░▀▄
▄▀░████▓░▀║ Blues implies a comparison to abstract modern ║▀░▓████░▀▄
▄▀░████▓░▀║ jazz that lost its audience, and there's another ║▀░▓████░▀▄
▄▀░████▓░▀║ quote about hip-hop records being treated as ║▀░▓████░▀▄
▄▀░████▓░▀║ disposable, that they aren't maximized as product ║▀░▓████░▀▄
▄▀░████▓░▀║ or as art. That's the framework in which the ║▀░▓████░▀▄
▄▀░████▓░▀║ album operates, and while there's a definite ║▀░▓████░▀▄
▄▀░████▓░▀║ unity counteracting the second observation, the ║▀░▓████░▀▄
▄▀░████▓░▀║ artistic ambition actually helped gain the Roots ║▀░▓████░▀▄
▄▀░████▓░▀║ a whole new audience ("coffeehouse chicks and ║▀░▓████░▀▄
▄▀░████▓░▀║ white dudes," as Common puts it in the liner ║▀░▓████░▀▄
▄▀░████▓░▀║ notes). The backing tracks are jazzy and ║▀░▓████░▀▄
▄▀░████▓░▀║ reflective, filled with subtly unpredictable ║▀░▓████░▀▄
▄▀░████▓░▀║ instrumental lines, and the band also shows a ║▀░▓████░▀▄
▄▀░████▓░▀║ strong affinity for the neo-soul movement, which ║▀░▓████░▀▄
▄▀░████▓░▀║ they actually had a hand in kick-starting via ║▀░▓████░▀▄
▄▀░████▓░▀║ their supporting work on Erykah Badu's Baduizm. ║▀░▓████░▀▄
▄▀░████▓░▀║ Badu returns the favor by guesting on the album's ║▀░▓████░▀▄
▄▀░████▓░▀║ breakthrough single, "You Got Me," an involved ║▀░▓████░▀▄
▄▀░████▓░▀║ love story that also features a rap from Eve, ║▀░▓████░▀▄
▄▀░████▓░▀║ co-writing from Jill Scott, and an unexpected ║▀░▓████░▀▄
▄▀░████▓░▀║ drum'n'bass breakbeat in the outro. Other ║▀░▓████░▀▄
▄▀░████▓░▀║ notables include Mos Def on the playful ║▀░▓████░▀▄
▄▀░████▓░▀║ old-school rhymefest "Double Trouble," Slum ║▀░▓████░▀▄
▄▀░████▓░▀║ Village superproducer Jay Dee on "Dynamite!," and ║▀░▓████░▀▄
▄▀░████▓░▀║ Philly native DJ Jazzy Jeff on "The Next ║▀░▓████░▀▄
▄▀░████▓░▀║ Movement." But the real stars are Black Thought ║▀░▓████░▀▄
▄▀░████▓░▀║ and Malik B, who drop such consistently nimble ║▀░▓████░▀▄
▄▀░████▓░▀║ rhymes throughout the record that picking ║▀░▓████░▀▄
▄▀░████▓░▀║ highlights is extremely difficult. Along with ║▀░▓████░▀▄
▄▀░████▓░▀║ works by Lauryn Hill, Common, and Black Star, ║▀░▓████░▀▄
▄▀░████▓░▀║ Things Fall Apart is essential listening for ║▀░▓████░▀▄
▄▀░████▓░▀║ anyone interested in the new breed of mainstream ║▀░▓████░▀▄
