Warning Signs

After The Rush, his first album released in March 2014, and numerous concerts in the four
corners of the world (Peru, Swaziland, South Africa, Zambia, China, Switzerland, France, etc.),
ROOTWORDS, with pure sincerity, veered to express his sentiments of the world. His travel
experiences has permitted him to take the back seat in relation to certain re-accruing subjects in
hip-hop, keeping his ego at bay, while focusing on more real and profound reflections.
The instrumentals in Warning Signs are intricately fabricated, rich in sound, profound and
intense, in the image of what the artist himself has become. He adapts his rhymes and flows
doing justice to the unconstrained beats, composed by the Block Notes, with the occasional help
of Swiss producer Yvan Peacemaker (“A Matter of Time”, the first single revealed in December
2017).
On this project, ROOTWORDS chose to invite two artists that he had met along his musical and
cultural journey: the Chinese freestyle champion J-Fever and the avant-garde Durban South
African Robin Thirdfloor, from Umlazi – the fourth largest township in South Africa.
This new album is a concentration of energy and sincerity, a beacon to the illusions and lies
perpetrated by man, and it is on the stage that ROOTWORDS intends to proclaim his vision of the
world, by spontaneous communication that is alive and rich in vibrations. Ring the alarm!
