According to XXLMag.com, The Roots have finally announced a release date for their ninth studio album entitled How I Got Over.

The Roots’ Black Thought revealed to XXL that the band is aiming for a June release date.

The new record is well underway-right now, it’s about completed,” Black Thought explained. “It’s a more celebratory album-the story of triumph and the rise of the brand that is ‘The Roots,’ and how we kept our heads above water consistently for so many years in the game without taking a hiatus, maintaining some love and relevancy for all this time.”

Aside from serving as the house band for Late Night with Jimmy Fallon, The Roots have also been performing at New York’s Highline Ballroom on their off days as part of The Roots’ Jam Session.
