Black Radio 2 (Deluxe Edition) - Robert Glasper Experiment (Vinyl) (AE)

This is a vinyl LP pressing of Black Radio 2 by the Robert Glasper Experiment, a deluxe edition that includes four bonus tracks. Released in 2013, Black Radio 2 takes the groundbreaking sound of its predecessor and elevates it even further. The core of the album remains the Robert Glasper Experiment: a dynamic and genre-defying band featuring Robert Glasper (keyboards), Derrick Hodge (bass), Mark Colenburg (drums), and Casey Benjamin (vocoder, saxophone). A remarkable roster of vocalists, including Common, Patrick Stump, Brandy, Jill Scott, Dwele, Marsha Ambrosius, Anthony Hamilton, Faith Evans, Norah Jones, Snoop Dogg, Lupe Fiasco, Emeli Sandé, Lalah Hathaway, and Malcolm-Jamal Warner, contribute to the album's distinct sound. With 11 of the 12 tracks being original compositions, the album emphasizes exceptional songwriting. The cover of Stevie Wonder's Jesus Children of America featuring Lalah Hathaway is particularly moving, accompanied by a spoken word tribute to the victims of the Sandy Hook Elementary School shooting by Malcolm-Jamal Warner.
