Rolling Stone's 486th greatest album of all time (420th in the 2020 list)
A great, toe-tapping soul and, at times, jazz album. A couple of standout tracks (Happy Feelin and Africano) and generally instrumental so you can work without needing to sing along :P

Kenneka Cook came up with her sound putting beats together with a Vox Lil Looper pedal; eventually she set up shop in producer Scott Lane's old house and put together an impressive ten tracks. With her single My Universe she puts her funky jazz foot in, and takes her soul foot out. It’s a mesmerizing pendulum beat that makes the perfect backdrop for her vocal power.

"I got it and I burned it and listened to it on the plane a lot. That one, for her, it goes back to trying to play more old-style jazz and she's playing incredible piano on it and the drummer's incredible. It's just a sick record. When you listen to an incredible jazz record, it's just undeniable, nobody else can touch it, no white dude - and if they can, it's too schooled. That's why I like that one - I can reference the later, freer ones, but I listen to a lot of older records. There's obviously Love Supreme, but that's obviously a transitional record from [John Coltrane's] earlier ones, Soul Train and Giant Steps. This is more advanced than that: they're definitely alluding to older jazz and taking it to another place, but they never go too apeshit, they never start squealing, but that's a special record."
