James Blake’s New CD: A Bedroom Artist


Of his new CD, “Overgrown,” Pitchfork writes: ‘James Blake’s follow-up to his breakthrough self-titled album incorporates more gospel and R&B elements and a wider variety of textures. He successfully splits the difference between the sultry bedroom vibes of R&B’s resurgent Quiet Storm moment and the more mundane life of a British “bedroom” artist.’ Warning: as you’ll see from the video I’m posting, Blake’s not the greatest live artist.
