We tried to tell you that The Jimmy Fallon Show wasn't going to stop The Lengendary Roots Crew from bringing you and yours the best live show money can buy. First there was Rock The Bells, and now you can catch The Roots on the 4th annual Hennessy Artistry Tour, alongside Common. "Hosted exclusively by Hennessy, each show will feature a unique blend of performers and collaborators ranging from up-and-coming talent to cameos by iconic special guests." Says Common of the tour: "The Roots and I are really collaborating to create a musical blend of talent that will do Artistry justice. We are planning some surprises as well, it should be quite an experience and I am thrilled to be a part of it." Good hip-hop meets good cognac… it gets no better. Follow me after the jump for the tour dates.
9/12 – Chicago – The Shrine
9/19 – Atlanta – The Velvet Room

Common is having a concert at the Palladium in Hollywood. It’s called Common & Friends. Check out livenation.com for tickets.
No Philly date damn! We ain’t get no Rock the bells this year in philly…. thanks god for the annaual ROOTs picnic!
Who has an invite-only concert? This is some bull$#!t. EPIC Fail, Hennessy.
Com Sense and Roots get MUCH LOVE in Los Angeles. And no stop in LA?!?!?!
I just purchased an album on itunes from Bobby Treacherous called “The Highway”. It is incredible if you like lyrical hip hop
Chicago is invite only?! Questlove “Can I get some help?!!”
This show is going to be crazy.
I was just at a show in Tampa, FL at a place called the Crow Bar and this dude named Bobby Treacherous took the stage and killed it. I bought his record on itunes called The Highway and it is great. Kind of reminded me of Common or even Black Thought with his style.
Darryl what’s up man! I see you have good taste in music too
How do I get tickets to the ATL show. I got to get in!!! its on my birthday
CHITOWN – HOW can I get invited???? PLZ
I know its invite only. So how do I get invited to this.
chicago….tickets?
Chicago is invite only and the guestlist is closed.
What’s up Okay Fam…
Does anybody know if tickets can be purchased in Atlanta for the show on 9/19 at the Velvet Room? I can’t seem to find tickets at the usual spots…
yoooooo!!!! Wheres the CALI-LOVE!!!
In Houston is this an invite only also? I have seen them everytime that they’ve been here but im guessing by the lack of ticket info and the posts from others here that I cannot purchase tickets? somebody lemme know please!
Houston. Guest list is closed.
the Houston event was incredible! Hype crowd, tight sound and the Roots held down every performer with unbelievable flow. Black Thought and Common did their thing along with special guests Big Daddy Kane & Al B. Sure!
