Era & Context
Released as The Robert Glasper Experiment, this album pushes further into electronic territory than Black Radio. Where Black Radio proved jazz could coexist with R&B, ArtScience asks whether jazz improvisation can inhabit ambient and electronic spaces. The spaciousness and textural focus suggest Glasper absorbing the aesthetics of electronic music production rather than simply layering it onto jazz.
Career Phase
The Experiment years: fully hybrid jazz-hip-hop-R&B projects that redefined what a jazz musician could release, winning Grammys and reaching audiences far beyond the jazz world.
