The Roots Release 9 Minute Video Inspired By Their Concept Album Undun


The Legendary Roots Crew released a mini movie on the strength of their latest album Undun. There's word that the Late Night house band are contemplating turning their hip hop concept album into a full on stage production (Note to Black Thought et al.: Don't go idlewild and try to make a feature film with your own dough...it could prove disastrous) and this is a great way of testing the waters.

The video is directed by Clifton Bell and features the fictional protagonist of the Undun story, Redford Stevens. It's a story of a kid that becomes a victim of his environment, which is not far from reality. Enjoy the vid and drop your thoughts in the comments.
