The Roots - Make My [Music Video]
The legendary Roots crew drop there moving visuals for the lead single, Make My, off the upcoming Undun album. Although the album version features Big K.R.I.T, the video is much better suited without his verse in terms of progressing the narrative of the concept album. Undun tells the tragic story of Redford Stevens, a man who died in 1999 at the age of 25. This is just the first of four videos that will tell his story. The album drops December 6th.
