For this LP, Jacob Collier has sampled 150,000 voices from his live concerts, which he turned into an actual instrument in his productions. This is genius for a few reasons. One, the samples are original and can’t be sourced elsewhere. Two, he made his fans part of the album, building a powerful connection.
Collier already has multiple Grammy awards under his belt, such as Best Arrangement, Instruments & Vocals. With this album, he continues to fascinate global audiences with his forward-thinking approach to music.
Judging by the number of subgenres packed into this LP, the British musician sees the beauty of music as a whole. Of course, he carries a certain legacy with his angelic voice and electrifying instrumentation, but the musician is truly well-rounded in his music taste.
Box of Stars features hip-hop motifs with Kirk Franklin, A Rock Somewhere is a cool take on traditional Indian music with Anoushka Shankar, and Cinnamon Crush delivers a passionate soul vibe with Lindsey Lomis. Like, who else can actually be so versatile as Jacob Collier?
