They've been doing Fallon for a decade now, and in that time they've dropped:

How I Got Over
Wake Up! (w/ John Legend)
Betty White: The Movie
Booker T: The Road From Memphis
Undun
Wise Up Ghost (w/ Elvis Costello)
...And Then You Shoot Your Cousin

plus two Black Thought EPs...plus the Money Makin' Jam Boys mixtape...

...plus consistent touring...to say nothing of the jam sessions they were doing heavily early on in the gig...

...plus they had already done 10-12 albums (depending on how you wanna count 'em) BEFORE the Fallon gig.

It's not like they haven't been active. They may not be making the Roots albums you might prefer, but let's not act like they've gone ghost since they got jobs.
