Bilal’s artistry is always spoken in the same breath as musicians such as The Roots, Raphael Saadiq, Erykah Badu and sometimes even Prince. 2006’s delayed and ultimately passed-over release Love For Sale was maligned by the kind of bootlegging that made Universal run for the hills but had fans begging for more. His 2010 Grammy nominated Airtight’s Revenge was a dark ride yet still featured all of the immensity of an artist comfortable slipping in to almost any genre.
