The Roots’ long-delayed album “How I Got Over” has a new release date. The set will now come out June 8 on Def Jam, according to a Twitter post from drummer Ahmir “Questlove” Thompson.

“How I Got Over” was originally expected last June, then in the fall and in early 2010, but was continually pushed back because the Roots kept recording new material in the midst of their stint as the house band on “Late Night With Jimmy Fallon.

The album’s first single, “How I Got Over ” was originally introduced and showcased last year on The Roots’ second home, Late Night with Jimmy Fallon.

More recently, The Roots made headlines when they announced their upcoming Picnic and when news surfaced that they would produce John Legend’s next project.
