Review:
Soul singer and multi-instrumentalist is back after 14 yrs, once dubbed as the "R&B Jesus," by music critic Robert Christgau. Originally pegged for launch next year, but D, affected by national unrest around unprosecuted police officer involved shootings in Ferguson, MO and New York City, nudged the release date up to speak to the times(pitchfork). Very good funk/soul with a message about the times..
