Arrangement Notes
Macy Gray is such an assured, original vocalist that it's hard to believe <B>On How Life Is</B> is her debut album. She recalls a number of other vocalists, particularly jazz singers like Billie Holiday and Nina Simone, but she is unquestionably from the post-hip-hop generation, which is evident not just from the sound of the record, but the style of her songwriting, which is adventurous and unpredictable. Thankfully, she's worked with a producer (Andrew Slater, who pulled a similar trick with Fiona Apple's debut, Tidal) that lets her run wild and helps her find sounds that match her ideas. Always captivating, Macy soars higher than most other contemporary R&B divas.
