I’m led inside, where 33-year-old Robert Glasper sits at a Yamaha grand, his back to me, taking advantage of the piano and the empty room in order to squeeze in a little practice. (Practice can be a scarce commodity when you’re the father of a 3-year-old, as Glasper is. “He runs and sits on my lap, and he has to play now,” the keyboardist says later of his son, Riley, who makes a cameo on Glasper’s star-laden, pop-oriented new album, Black Radio.) Glasper is wearing blue jeans, a gray hoodie and a dark knit hat, and is entranced mid-tune. As he grooves his way through a progression of pillowy chords, the melody to “On Green Dolphin Street” pokes out just often enough to be recognizable. He senses he’s being watched, and the spell is broken. “Oh!” he says, startled. He rises from the piano bench, laughing. “Wassup?” What’s up is Black Radio. The media blitz that will kick in as the Feb. Install plugins in photoshop portable 4shared search. 28 release date nears-profiles in the New York Times, on NPR and elsewhere; guest spots on both The Late Show With David Letterman and The Tonight Show With Jay Leno-is still in the offing. But even a month before the album drops, the buzz-including features in the then-current issues of Ebony and Essence-is building, and will pay off: Black Radio will debut at No. 15 on the Billboard 200 chart, moving 20,854 units in its first week. For a jazz-rooted artist, those numbers are almost unfathomable. Black Radio and its heavy emphasis on R&B and hip-hop-not to mention its many guest vocalists-is a big departure from previous Glasper albums. That’s not to say Glasper hasn’t worked in genres beyond jazz before. He’s been a sideman to a select array of hip-hop and neo-soul artists, most notably in his gig as musical director for Mos Def. Glasper’s own recordings, too, have included increasing tastes of his outside influences, going back even to his acoustic trio albums-consider the half-minute-long hip-hop interlude on his 2005 Blue Note debut, Canvas; or his backbeat-driven “F.T.B.” and J Dilla tribute “J Dillalude” on 2007’s In My Element. His piano playing has always flaunted a gliding and distinctively soulful touch that begs to be sampled. Most recently, his quartet the Robert Glasper Experiment spent half of the 2009 project Double Booked stretching stylistic boundaries-and, with saxophonist Casey Benjamin’s vocoder cover of Herbie Hancock’s “Butterfly,” honoring past jazz-plus-R&B fusioneers. (The group’s other two members are drummer Chris “Daddy” Dave, whom Glasper labels “our generation’s Tony Williams,” and electric bassist Derrick Hodge, who recently signed his own deal with Blue Note and shares Glasper’s penchant for genre-jumping; among the many hats Hodge wears is that of musical director for the neo-soul star Maxwell.) The Experiment’s Black Radio, though, is something different-something that risks rubbing the jazz cognoscenti the wrong way. All those earlier recordings had essentially and unmistakably been jazz, or an electric jazz band reinventing R&B or hip-hop. But Black Radio, despite the loose yet learned improvisational nature that provides its identifiable jazz DNA, is primarily a pop album. It starts off with a pair of vocal covers-Erykah Badu singing the Mongo Santamaria/Oscar Brown Jr. Staple “Afro Blue,” followed by Lalah Hathaway covering Sade’s “Cherish the Day”-that serve as omens of what’s to come. Seven originals follow, most involving a guest vocalist adding lyrics to music composed in whole or part by Glasper. Lupe Fiasco and Bilal join the Experiment-Fiasco rapping, Bilal singing a Glasper-penned refrain-on the hip-hop/soul/jazz mashup “Always Shine.” “F.T.B.” gets rechristened “Gonna Be Alright,” with lyrics from the jazz-influenced soul standout Ledisi.
