Pitchfork says: ‘Questlove’s work spearheading the annual Roots Picnic provides the best way to think about what his unique sensibilities look like writ large. Since 2008, the fest has brought eclectic lineups to Quest’s native Philadelphia, and this October 1 and 2, the one-day affair expands to a two-day concert at New York City’s Bryant Park. Even amid the drummer and DJ’s constant flurry of activity, the event is a big moment for this tireless artist, whose work ethic becomes even more impressive when you meet him—how can a man with such a full plate be so funny and relaxed?’
