From The Roots’ forthcoming undun LP. Video Directed, Shot & Edited by Clifton Bell for http://www.ghettonerd.com.
undun is an existential re-telling of the short life of one Redford Stephens (1974-1999). Through the use of emotives and Redford’s internal dialogues the album seeks to illustrate the intersection of free will and prescribed destiny as it plays out ‘on the corner’. Utilizing a reverse narrative arc, the album begins as the listener finds Redford disoriented–postmortem–and attempting to make sense of his former life. As he moves through its pivotal moments he begins to deconstruct all that has led to his (and our own) coming undun.
album sounds good but very down beat and bleak… Good LP for lougin’ on a rainy day…
