The Roots are an American hip hop band from Philadelphia, Pennsylvania, formed in 1987 by Tariq "Black Thought" Trotter and Ahmir "Questlove" Thompson. The Roots are known for their jazzy and eclectic approach to hip hop and for the inclusion of live instrumentation.
Since its first independent album-length release, the band has released ten studio albums, two EPs, three collaboration albums with other artists, and also collaborated on recordings and in live shows with a wide variety of artists in many musical genres.
