The legendary Roots crew bring their recalcitrant brand of underground hip-hop to the Forum tonight in support of latest studio album Rising Down. The gravity-defying LP proposes a new school of counter-Newtonian physics to combat "greenhouse gases and the earth spinnin' off its axis". The six-piece bring the same game-changing show that rocked Woodstock '99 and Jay-Z's historic Fade to Black tour for two nights of live-band hip-hop and neo-soul jams. Saturday's DJ battle features Ali Shaheed (Tribe Called Quest) vs ?uestlove from the Roots.
