In a interview with Billboard, Questlove and Black Thought shed some light on what to expect from the next Roots album that was rumored to take on a more orchestral feel.

Questlove says:
This is going to be our first full-fledged narrative concept album,” ?uestlove told Billboard.com at New York’s Buddakan, where he and frontman Black Thought hosted an event Wednesday to promote two upcoming events in their hometown of Philadelphia: this Saturday’s (June 4) Roots Picnic festival, and Philly’s Fourth of July Jam. “It’s going to be a challenge to figure out how to get from point A to B — or in this case, point B to point A,” he hinted, “and have it seem natural.
Black Thought Added:
Conceptually, the album will stem from the “same idea” as “How I Got Over,” but “kind of flipped. Instead of from dark to light, it’s an album that goes from light to dark.”
Black Thought also said in ideally the album would drop in November but sometime next year seems more realistic.
