The Roots is model music that will be legendary, but may never gain "bling bling" profitability. I am sure though that they will reach multi platinum status sometime soon =).

The Roots is that kind of music they will play in the backround cause its soothing and real. One such case is when "You Got Me" was sampled for a bath product commercial in France. I'm sure there have been other occassions as well.

The Roots is music for the "intelligent and innovative".

You can look at The Roots as being professors. Students are turned into billionaires at Harvard with the help of the professors, but those professors themselves may never achieve such wealth. Hope ya'll get what I'm trying to say.

Adios,
