Organix is the debut studio album of American hip hop band The Roots, released on May 19, 1993 by the band, independently. It was originally sold at the band's shows in Europe. The album earned enough industry buzz to earn The Roots offers from major record labels, after which they signed with DGC Records, which at the time was better known for its grunge music releases. Organix was re-released in 1998 on Cargo Records.

The Roots presented their most recent – a raw, head-fuck – album And Then You Shoot Your Cousin in 2014. A short album in length, this album is no less thought-provoking than anything else they had done previously. Much like a jam session within a garage, Organix shows the (no pun intended) roots of the creation, and it’s a very fun listen. Plus, how often do you get a chance to hear Quest on the mic? Evolving into an underground classic throughout the years, this is in the same league of Kendrick Lamar’s The Kendrick Lamar EP and Eminem’s Infinite, in terms of self-released albums that sparked the brain of what would come later.

This is the classic Roots sound that put them on the map, long before the slick major label production and Jimmy Fallon. Black Thought's dope rhymes over live instrumentation-it doesn't get better. I've had this on vinyl since back in the day-I'm happy to purchase here again so I can rock it on the iPhone.
