"Roots" is the second album of the brazilian singer Nilza Costa. The ten songs of the album narrate with melancholy, religiousness and poetry - but also with a strong dose of hope - the meaning of life of men and women torn from their homeland. Throughout the entire album the Africanness of the singer's origins shines clearly, and it is artfully blended with some AfroJazz arrangements and with the Yoruba language, that characterizes its ancestry, its spirituality and its driving and pervasive force.
