Day: April 1, 2016

One look at the track list of Robert Glasper‘s soon-to-drop sonic salute to the genius of Miles Davis and it’s easy to be overwhelmed by the sheer star-power of the album’s roster. And while we’ll only have to wait another week for the full reveal of Everything’s Beautiful, Glasper has just relinquished what could be the album’s most coveted collaborative effort, “Violets,” featuring production from 9th Wonder and vibrant verbal from the one and only, Phonte. Chopping up one of Davis’ most acclaimed cuts, “Kind Of Blue,” Phontigallo’s melodic delivery over some wavy wonders from 9th is the perfect score to some lazy Sunday merriments, whether they be of herbal or alcoholic persuasion. And though it’s one short of a full Little Brother reunion, “Violets” should get you salivating at the prospect, and warmed-up proper for the album’s official release next Friday, April 1st. Hear Phonte and 9th Wonder join Robert Glasper on the latest Everything’s Beautiful drop down below and pre-order your copy of the album via iTunes today. via OKP
