The Roots released the first single off their forthcoming concept album, undun, that chronicles the life of one Redford Stephens.
According to OkayPlayer, ?uestlove said “Undun is the story of this kid who becomes criminal, but he wasn’t born criminal. He’s not the nouveau exotic primitive bug-eyed gunrunner like Tupac’s character Bishop in Juice… he’s actually thoughtful and is neither victim nor hero. Just some kid who begins to order his world in a way that makes the most sense to him at a given moment… At the end of the day… isn’t that what we all do?”
Seems like quite the story, and indeed, something we can all relate to. The album is set to drop December 6.
