Justice System

Justice System stands out with its up-tempo jazz-rap approach because the sound originates from a genuine ensemble in the mold of the Roots. The players handle guitar, bass, tenor sax, Rhodes piano, and drums. Rooftop Soundcheck arrived as their debut on MCA in 1994. The label let them go despite strong word of mouth and steady live appearances. Eight years on, the group resurfaced via Ill River with Uncharted Terrain.
