Our Take

Robert Glasper Experiment may sound like an experiment gone wrong, but fear not, dear readers, for Black Radio (Deluxe Edition) is an absolute gem of an album. Blending jazz, hip-hop, and soul seamlessly, Glasper and his talented crew have created a sonic journey that will leave you begging for more.

From the sultry vocals of Erykah Badu to the thought-provoking lyrics of Lupe Fiasco, each track on this album is a treat for the ears. The versatile musicianship on display here is nothing short of genius, with Glasper's piano skills shining through on every song.

But it's not just the music that shines on Black Radio. The production value is top-notch, creating a rich soundscape that envelops the listener from start to finish. Each song feels like a mini adventure, with unexpected twists and turns that keep you on the edge of your seat.

So, dear readers, do yourselves a favor and give Black Radio (Deluxe Edition) a spin. You won't be disappointed. In fact, you may just find yourself hitting repeat over and over again, unable to get enough of the magic that Robert Glasper Experiment has created. Cheers to that!
