Release Date: 13-07-2004

Details: Amazon.ca On their sixth album, the Roots backslide a bit on the creative promise they showed with 2002's Phrenology. Instead of expanding into more ambitious and experimental areas--the way Outkast has, for example--the Roots tends to fall back to basics with vigorous, but ultimately conventional, lyricism. There are definitely some truly great moments here: the album opens with near-magic on "Star," a mesmerizing song that is one of the finest of the band's career, and Black Thought is a one-man tour de force on "Boom! " where he mimics Big Daddy Kane and Kool G Rap down to their velor sweats. But The Tipping Point also has some of their blandest production ever, and, at 10 tracks (plus two hidden cuts), the compactness of the album makes the problem spots stand out more than usual. "I Don't Care" and "Duck Down!" in particular seem derived and commercially tailored. The main thing missing here is an overall guiding concept, something the Roots have never lacked before. --Oliver Wang Product Description Philadelphia's popularly regarded as among today's most innovative, adverturous and influential bands, return with their highly anticipated 6th album. With contributions from Jean Grae, Martin Luther, Devin the Dude, guitarist Captain Kirk Douglas, producer Scott Storch, and comedian Dave Chappelle.
