The Truth Of The Tonight Show's Band The Roots

As it turns out, the doubters could not have been more wrong.
From a music standpoint, Uproxx reports that the band released six new albums since joining the show. In addition to that, The Roots stayed with Jimmy Fallon when the comic earned the highly-coveted gig hosting "The Tonight Show," which, in 2014, was rebranded "The Tonight Show Starring Jimmy Fallon."
The team has been unstoppable, and The Roots contribute, not just musically but also within skits and bits.
Black Thought, Questlove, and other band members aren't shy about the occasional costume. They are central to recurring segments "Freestylin' With The Roots," "Slow Jam The News," and the "History of Hip-Hop," which features both Fallon and Justin Timberlake.
