Robert Glasper – “Violets” feat. Phonte (Prod. By 9th Wonder)
Robert Glasper delivers the loveliest “Violets” (produced by 9th Wonder); off his tribute album released in commemoration of the late great Miles Davis’ upcoming birthday.
The album blends a diverse group of master takes and outtakes from across Miles’ incredible tenure with Columbia Records (1955-1985) with original reinterpretations of songs by Davis. From the obvious (riffs and passages within the catalog) to the obscure (samples of Miles’ in-studio instructions spoken after false starts), Glasper has built something unique but still unquestionably Miles.
The drop date for “Everything’s Beautiful” is May 27, 2016. But you can pre-order that today… after you listen to Tiggalo flow over this Wonder–Glasper musical collabo.
