Questlove of The Roots has discussed a pivotal moment in the band’s career when they were “saved” by Dr. Dre.Speaking with Mark Ronson on THE FADER Uncovered podcast, Questlove discussed The Roots’ sixth album, 2004’s ‘The Tipping Point’, and how it almost didn’t arrive following the dissolution of the band’s record label, MCA, the year before.“So as promised, MCA imploded,” Questlove explained. “We were without an island.

The way that I heard the story went down was Dr. Dre and Jimmy Iovine had a breakfast meeting. Jimmy basically let Dre control the MCA guillotine.

Okay, who do we save? Who don’t we save?“I remember, eight of us got saved: Mary [J Blige], Common. I remember our name being last on that list.
