KEN LUBAS / Mark FuhrmanMark Fuhrman, the racist former Los Angeles police detective who was convicted of lying during the O.J. Simpson murder trial, is no longer in the land of the living.

Ebony Riley knows a thing or two about labels.

Before the late night stages, Grammy wins, and global acclaim, The Roots were building something raw, organic, and completely against the grain. On this date in 1993, the Philadelphia collective quietly released their debut album Organix, a project that would go on to serve as the blueprint for one of the most respected careers in Hip Hop history. Released independently, the album captured a young group still sharpening its identity, but already locked into the live instrumentation and jazz infused sound that would soon separate them from their peers.
