Roots Involved In Bus Crash

Legendary US hip hop group The Roots were involved in a serious bus crash outside Paris on November 19th - but no so serious that drummer ?uestlove couldn't blog from inside the ambulance!

The Philadelphia group are renowned as one of the most lethal live acts in hip hop, blending sublime rapping with live instrumentation. The band were en route to Paris where they were due to perform with Kanye West when their bus crashed.

The Roots emerged with only minor injuries, and ?uestlove managed to upload a blog from the inside of an ambulance to keep fans updated.

"In reality the crash was all of about 7 seconds....but to do a 360 on the highway and end up ramped up (the van that crashed into ours was UNDER our double decker bus) in the air....is....well... a frigging miracle."

He added, "Dog we are soooo alive right now."

"That was divine intervention. We are so grateful for this outcome," he said.

It is not known if the band will continue the European tour.
