Rooty is the second album by the British house duo Basement Jaxx, released in 2001. The singles released from the album were "Romeo", "Jus 1 Kiss", "Where's Your Head At" and "Get Me Off". "Do Your Thing" was also released as a single in Australia in 2003, and in the UK in 2005, after the release of their compilation album, The Singles. It contains more rhythmic influences than Remedy.

The name is taken from Basement Jaxx's regular club event held at a small pub in Brixton. The cover art features Copito de Nieve, the world's only albino gorilla.
