News / Mike McCray NEW MUSIC: The Roots + John Legend
Posted By Mike McCray on Thu, Jun 10, 2010 at 3:41 PM
I'm sure I'm not the only one jealous of everyone who got to partake in the glory that was The Roots picnic last weekend in Philly (att, asd, assf and more) but the band is not leaving us hanging. With the release of their new album, How I Got Over, swiftly approaching on June 22, new tracks are streaming out.
"The Fire" features John Legend and will be Track 11 on their upcoming LP. Some may remember hearing it before when The Roots rocked the Winter Olympics in Vancouver earlier this year, but this inspiring jam will surely be blaring out of arenas and put to some highlight reels in the very near future. I wouldn't move over "Stronger" as this generations' go-to motivational song just yet, but it's not bad. Video in the works as well.
Check it out.
