Our Take

Robert Glasper's "In My Element" is a delightful blend of jazz and hip-hop that will have you nodding your head and tapping your feet from start to finish. Glasper effortlessly weaves together intricate piano melodies with smooth beats and soulful vocals, creating a sound that is both nostalgic and fresh.

From the moment the opening track, "G&B" kicks in, you know you're in for a ride. Glasper's piano skills are on full display here, as he effortlessly navigates complex chord progressions and unexpected twists and turns. The addition of Casey Benjamin's soulful vocals adds an extra layer of depth to the music, giving each track a unique and memorable feel.

One of the standout tracks on the album is "Y'outta Praise Him," a funky, gospel-inspired tune that will have you grooving in no time. The combination of Glasper's masterful piano playing and Derrick Hodge's thumping bass line creates a dynamic and infectious sound that is impossible to resist.

Overall, "In My Element" is a testament to Glasper's talents as both a musician and a bandleader. His ability to seamlessly blend genres and create music that is both sophisticated and accessible is truly impressive. So, whether you're a jazz purist or a hip-hop aficionado, this album is sure to have something for everyone. Trust me, you won't be disappointed.
