Robert Glasper

• 2-CD SET 10th Anniversary Deluxe Edition

• INCLUDES 3 BONUS TRACKS

In 2012, Robert Glasper changed the game. After several acclaimed Blue Note albums with his acoustic trio (Canvas, In My Element) that solidified his Jazz cred while hinting at his Hip-Hop leanings, the visionary pianist went all in with Black Radio, an album that laid out a new paradigm for creative music, reaching beyond entrenched genre boundaries to create a singular vision that drew from all reaches of contemporary black music and beyond.

Featuring Glasper’s Experiment band with Casey Benjamin on sax/vocoder, Derrick Hodge on bass & Chris Dave on drums, the album boasted a rollcall of special guests including Erykah Badu, Lalah Hathaway, Bilal, Lupe Fiasco, Ledisi, KING, Chrisette Michele, Musiq Soulchild, Meshell Ndegeocello, Stokley, and Yasiin Bey. 

By the time he made Black Radio in 2012, Robert Glasper was one of the biggest new names in jazz, on the back of the success of Double Booked and In My Element. Or rather, he was the artist who had the keys to the castle of young listeners of colour who didn't think they liked jazz, at least what was seen as the forbiddingly esoteric end of it. - (JAZZWISE MAGAZINE)
