An innovator who paved the way for the future of jazz
A groundbreaking work by the Robert Glasper Experiment, fusing hip hop and jazz.
This groundbreaking album boldly deconstructs the traditional framework of jazz, incorporating elements of hip-hop and R&B. Featuring guest appearances from such stellar artists as Erykah Badu, Mos Def, and Lalah Hathaway, it organically combines modern beats with jazz harmonies. Glasper's piano playing is both meditative and dynamic, making this an important album that symbolizes a new generation of jazz.
