Gary Clark Jr.'s 2024 album entitled JPEG RAW, his fourth studio release, marks a grand step in his musical evolution…. A powerful and expansive artistic statement. While retaining the deep and true resonance of his blues foundations and guitar virtuosity with subtlety yet conviction, he reaches well beyond this time. The emphasis here is on song and studio craft without losing the rawness of his young legend. The album features guest appearances from legends, Stevie Wonder, George Clinton & Valerie June!
Songs like "Maktub," "JPEG RAW," "This Is Who We Are," "Hyperwave" and the epic 10-minute "Habit" 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.
