The Roots have fleshed out some additional details concerning their forthcoming studio album, Rising Down. In addition to guest appearances from the group's self-described "crew regulars," including Dice Raw, Truck North, P.O.R.N. and Malik B, the live hip-hop group has recruited a cross-section of heavy hitters for the project. As of press time, the album’s guests include Mos Def, Common, Kweli, Peedi Peedi, Styles P, Wale, Patrick Stump, Mercedes Martinez and Chrisette Michelle to appear on the guest-heavy project. In other collaboration news, The Roots recently recorded a track for the project Soundtrack For A Revolution with Brooklyn indie-heroes TV On The Radio. The paired performers are expected to cover a Civil Rights-era freedom song. The Philadelphia-bred hip-hop collective will appear at Columbia, MO's Jesse Auditorium this evening.
