Mr. Rodney Smith, commonly known as Roots Manuva to you and me, will release his fourth studio album proper (if you don't count his two remix albums) on August 3rd through Big Dada, entitled Slime & Reason. Here's what the guys at the label had to say about it:
"Rodney's reached new heights with the music. Light and dark, vulnerable and wise by turns, the album draws together cruffy anthems, club-shuddering basslines, slime and reason and introspective insight in trademark fashion. Like all Roots Manuva full lengths, it's an album in the truest sense of the word; a coherent body of work that provides a window - fuck it, a door - into the world of Rodney Smith."
