Robert Glasper - Better Than I Imagined ft. H.E.R., Meshell Ndegeocello
Музыка
“Black lives matter and so does black love; no one wants a life without love, but we have generations of people in our community who haven’t had the tools to actually be in healthy relationships. It seems like people are finally ready to open their eyes to systemic racism in this country, and if we’re going to talk about it, we have to also talk about how it affects our relationships - how we communicate, how we see ourselves, how we treat each other. It’s not always good, even though maybe it could be.” - Robert Glasper

WHY ISNT THIS TALKED ABOUT MORE
Neo Soul lovers are in heaven on this one !
I’m a bass player - I dropped that puppy (the E String) down a half step, And played along for the ride. This is quite possibly the deepest groove I have ever played, after nearly 30 years of playing bass.❤❤❤❤❤❤❤

So no one is going to talk about the OG, the LEGEND, “Meshell Ndegeocello”, this woman ripped through the middle 90’s with crazy Love hits/heartbreak in Black Cinema. The song “Fool of Me” from the movie “Love and Basketball”???? That scene still sends chills down anyone’s spine who never even heard of her. Meshell’s monologue at the end is the perfect essence of when you with or were with someone and you are out somewhere alone, but they got you…”sprung” in a sense and you know it is crazy…but you still want them to pick up the phone. Song on repeat forever!!!!

Started listening to Neo Soul since 2000. Dabbling with almost all genres of music... I always keeps listening more to this genre, mostly "old songs". The reason I do this is perfectly encapsulated in this song. This genre is rife with transcendentally celestial... yet... primal elements. Like... space dust in a cool autumn breeze. Timeless stuff.

Even their newer stuff is good. Good enough to even contend with new virtuosos like H.E.R., Syd Tha Kid, Gwenn Bunn, Jordan Rakei, Moonchild and even Jacob Collier. Probably because they have had a significant influence on them. I just prefer the older stuff for the nostalgia they bring. First loves. Old cookouts. Empathy blues. Hope's and dreams. You owe it to deep scan Robert Glasper too. Man is a genius and is another portal to more artists cause he has had a VERY vital role in some of the above mentioned tracks. Lastly... you have to listen a little bit to these vocalists. They aren't exactly Neo / Rhythmic Soul... but they are worth mentioning. KEM - Love Calls, Find Your Way Joe - All That I Am Boys II Men - Colour of Love Smokey Robinson - Cruisin Minnie Ripperton - Inside My Love Brandy - Fullmoon Donnie Hathaway - Song For You Marvin Gaye - After The Dance Donnell Jones - You Know That I Love You Rubens Staddard - Superstar Hopefully those threads I left for you will lead to more pioneers.

@@lolabint3411 You guys are welcome. To be quite honest wanted to name more, really did. But by the time I'd be finished... I'd probably be into old age, which isn't too far off. The songs are also quite everywhere, with regards to mood and range. But a majority of them got that nice spacey yet soulful ethereal heaviness, a warm fuzzy gentleness... like sherbert coursing through your veins. Good for cooking, or just spacing out, to any chill leisure activity. Nearly forgot to mention: Viktor Duplaix - Make A Baby. And for that good ol Blue Eyed Soul can't go wrong with Jamie Cullum, Buble is aight too, Stacey Kent is a good jazzy listen. Bounces around genres, but always keep to those Soulful, Jazzy, Lounge Music / Bossa Nova sounds. Must, must, MUST listen Moonchild - Still Wonder. Perfect transition from this song by H.E.R.. Oh man, you could make love to that song. Amazing how Soul has transcended Race. But then again... it's good music. And music is universal. I just hope the original pioneers don't get overlooked though.

Spot on!
Once I heard the piano and drums within the first 10 seconds, I was locked in. Robert is THAT DUDE on the keys! Rob ain't let me down. (And Meshelle goes perfect with anything R.G. plays)
At the end when she said…I hope you’re not lonely, that always stood out to me for some reason.
Meshelle N’degeocello’s voice is spread over this ditty like melted buh-tuh. 🖤🦋🎼

Is it ever
Let me tell you something. I cried and listened to this song for 3 hours on repeat the first time I heard it. There is divinity within the Union of Robert Glasper, H.E.R. and Meshell Ndegéocello, their 3 melodic souls and the creation of “Better Than I Imagined”. I know the that the millions of ways this song has touched each and everyone one of us, is better than any of us could have ever imagined. Thank you for this beautiful, otherworldly creation. We need the healing that this provides. 🙏🏾 ❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️

Thank you for this. For me, it's the familiarity of your music that soothes me during times like these. I am thankful for your gifts, Mr. Glasper, H.E.R. and Ms. Ndegeocello. Continue to create, at your own pace and share with the people. Thanks again.

Sitting at work with the store music turned off listening to this. Even the customers love it. This is Sunday driving music.
This songs shows up on every play list I make and always will. Every time I listen to it, I uncover something new that touches me deeply, moves me or lifts me. It is a gift. Congratulations to Mr.Glasper, H.E.R, and Meshell and thank you!!
Finally!!!! Hauntingly beautiful!!!! I can’t wait to hear the entire project!!!!! #BlackRadio3
