\"Roots<\/p>\n

British rapper\/producer Rodney Smith aka Roots Manuva<\/a> is back with brand new material, following the 2013 Stolen Youth<\/em> EP. In the works for two years, Facety<\/em> takes its name from patois slang meaning someone is being rude. The single drops on May 4th via Ninja Tune<\/a>\/Big Dada<\/a> and it will be available on 12″ and digitally. Facety<\/em> features ‘Facety 2:11’ and it comes backed with B-side ‘Like a Drum’, produced by Machinedrum.
\nThe man is offering a stream of the insanely good ‘Facety 2:11’, with Kieran Hebden aka Four Tet<\/a> on production duties. Roots Manuva described the single as “a wee Spring warmer in voodoo coptic dialect shape shifting: the remit the same as ever in awakening one\u2019s inner, modern-day Sun Ra, ODB and Kate Bush on an overdrive of “doing because we can’t help ourselves\u2026\u2019. Listen to ‘Facety 2:11’ now. On repeat.<\/p>\n
