MACY GRAY - Big (2007)
VBR
Macy Gray is best known for her distinctive, raspy singing and flamboyant sense of styleand though there's no way to hide the peculiarities of her voice, she goes a long way toward minimizing her eccentricity on her fourth album, Big. This is not to say that her previous records were outrageously out-there, but they did crackle with a certain manic energy. They also benefitted from her willingness to experiment with the conventions of neo-soul as she played up a larger-than-life persona that owed an aesthetic debt to the freaky funk stars of the '70s. Yet Big is mainly comprised of amiable yet unmemorable R&B ballads that lack the unrestrained emotion and obvious hooks of her break-through hit "I Try," much less the unashamed yet mature sexuality that informed her highly underrated sophomore effort, The Id. Too much of the record settles into a mid-tempo haze that would be unremarkable if not for her vocal performancebut Gray's presence alone is not enough to elevate the mediocre songwriting.
