Description
|
|
|
|
Betty Wright has been busy coaching neo-soul singers like Beyoncé and Joss Stone because (as she told NPR), she wants to hear what's on the radio sung right. This is her first solo album in a decade, and you'd best believe this "Clean Up Woman" knows the p's and q's of R&B backwards and forwards! "Full of smart, probing R&B for grown-ups. The songs are new, but they're also rooted in the fierce, funky sound that made Wright so irresistible in the 1970s…. She enlisted the Roots, the Philly hip-hop act that's the house band on 'Late Night With Jimmy Fallon,' to write songs and back her…. 'Betty Wright: The Movie' doesn't reinvent its maker so much as it extracts her essence."—Boston Globe "Wright sounds terrific, navigating through the upbeat, attitudinal jams and slower, romantic cuts with finesse and strength."—All Music Guide
