Actually never got around to hearing this album, guess now is the time

You really should. You can tell he's mastered his craft by listening to a lot of the soul legends of the past. Haven't heard the 5 new songs yet, but it's going to be played today at work.

Thinking about driving down to see him in Portland next May.

One of the new songs he does live with Gary Clark Jr.
Can't wait to see them both live..

Why don't they market him towards the young hipster crowd AND the older black crowd? I can see grandmas and aunts and uncles fukking with him. He def has the machine behind him I don't know why they are only putting him onto one demographic though?

I never hear him on the R&B radios

White people LOVE Leon Bridges. LOVE. Dude sells out every show around my way.

He's good in concert, though I'm not sure with his sound if he has what it takes for a very long career :jbhmm:

I be thinking the same thing I wonder how they will expand his sound?

I watch his live videos he sounds dope I just feel like he could be bringing in more money if the label reached an older black crowd.

Dude aint bad, im not seeing the allure. He's decent but he doesnt have any songs that stop me in my tracks or mesmerize me. I will check him live but I hope this aint all hype.....

On Flowers he sounds like Usher ....might be just me but the production/mixing isn't really as crisp as I thought it would be

I guess they really wanted to emulate that time period......

Will need a few more listens though but I really wanted to hear him on production like John Legends Get Lifted
