JPEG RAW finds him in full creative control, produced alongside Jacob Picture, pushing into territory that feels personal rather than calculated. For fans who know him from his scorching Antone's sets or his early Bright Lights EP, this is the album where the ambition finally matches the talent.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\n\u003chr\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan\u003eGary Clark Jr.’s forthcoming album entitled JPEG RAW, his fourth studio release,\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cspan\u003emarks a grand step in his musical evolution…. A powerful and expansive artistic statement.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cspan\u003eWhile retaining the deep and true resonance of his blues foundations and guitar virtuosity with subtlety yet conviction, he reaches well beyond this time.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cspan\u003eThe emphasis here is on song and studio craft without losing the rawness of his young legend. (Rolling Stone Magazine called him, The Chosen One).\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cspan\u003eThe music is dense and adventurous with a more cohesive synthesis of his eclectic musical  palette.  Hip samples, Thelonious Monk and Sonny Boy Williamson decorate flourishes of African,  World Music, even Jazz while merging with blues , rock, R\u0026amp;B and rap; familiar areas he has ventured before, this time with more unity forging a fresh new style.  Clark’s lyrics are  pointed, deeply personal, outspoken and socially conscious with occasional forays into  rap and spoken word from Clark himself.  The sonics are immersive verging on modern groove-oriented psychedelia with hip-hop driven beats in verses giving way to anthemic choruses, rich with power-chording and wide fuzz riffage.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cspan\u003eSongs like “Maktub”, “JPEG RAW”, “This Is Who We Are”, “Hyperwave” and the epic 10-minute Habits, break fresh ground defying categorization in the ever corporatized, predictable “alt” music world.  The co-written Stevie Wonder duet, “What About The Children” feels like an immediate classic that could have lived on Innervisions or Talking Book if not for Clark’s fuzzed out riff and hip-hop pocket.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cspan\u003eClark has always had swagger and sex in his sound and very dangerous hands when wielding 6 strings. JPEG RAW is all of that and breaks new ground that is both thrilling and inspiring on every level.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003chr\u003e\n\n\u003cdiv data-bt-autogen\u003e\n\u003c!-- TRACKLIST_START --\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eTracklist\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eSide A\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cdiv\u003e1. Maktub\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv\u003e2. JPEG RAW\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv\u003e3. Don't Start\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv\u003e4. This Is Who We Are\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eSide B\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cdiv\u003e1. To The End Of The Earth\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv\u003e2. Alone Together\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv\u003e3. What About The Children\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv\u003e4. Hearts In Retrograde\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv\u003e5. Hyperwave\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eSide C\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cdiv\u003e1. Funk Witch U\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv\u003e2. Triumph\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv\u003e3. Habits\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c!-- TRACKLIST_END --\u003e \u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eUPC:\u003c\/strong\u003e 093624847762\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eLabel:\u003c\/strong\u003e Warner Records\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eRelease Date:\u003c\/strong\u003e 3.22.24\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eFormat:\u003c\/strong\u003e LP Vinyl\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"Broadtime","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":48455570882715,"sku":"561195","price":59.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/1041\/7172\/files\/packshot-gary-clark-jr-jpeg-raw-180g-lp-vinyl-vinyl-lp-relix.jpg?v=1777581792","url":"https:\/\/relix.shop\/products\/gary-clark-jr-jpeg-raw-180g-lp-vinyl","provider":"relix.shop","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
