Celebs Who Traced Their DNA Roots
Questlove
As co-frontman for the legendary hip-hop group The Roots, Questlove’s huge afro and extensive knowledge of music is well known. But after finding out his DNA ancestry, the Philly native was inspired to do some research of his own. Ancestors from both his mother’s and father’s side are from the Mende tribe in Sierra Leone. While the country’s political strife and history of violence is well chronicled, Questlove was determined to find out more about his homeland in Africa.
