Robert Glasper Bilal At NPR Musics 10th Anniversary Concert

Robert Glasper s music is a study in convergences. A pianist, bandleader and composer with a strong foothold in modern jazz, he belongs no less to the terrain of contemporary gospel, alternative hiphop and R B, the category under which he won his first two Grammy awards (of three). Glasper has carved a signature out of this crossgenre dialogue; consult his recent explainer for Jazz Night in America, about the jazz roots of some famous hiphop samples.
