Phrenology (album)
''Phrenology'' is the fifth studio album by American hip hop band The Roots, released November 26, 2002, on Geffen Records and MCA Records. Recording sessions for the album took place during June 2000 to September 2002.〔 It was primarily produced by members of the band and features contributions from hip hop and neo soul artists such as Cody ChesnuTT, Musiq Soulchild, Talib Kweli, and Jill Scott.
Although it did not parallel the commercial success of the band's previous album, ''Things Fall Apart'', the album reached number 28 on the US ''Billboard'' 200 chart and sold steadily, remaining on the chart for 38 weeks.〔(The Roots Album & Song Chart History – Billboard 200 ).

== Background ==
Following the breakthrough success of ''Things Fall Apart'' (1999), its release was highly anticipated and delayed, as recording took two years.〔〔 The album is named after the discredited pseudoscience of phrenology, the study of head shapes to determine intelligence and character, which was used to rationalize racism during the 19th century in the United States.〔Venable, Malcolm (October 2002). "(Mo' Money, Mo' Problems )". ''Vibe'': 124–128.〕 Its cover art was created by artist/printmaker Tom Huck.〔
