![Kelis - Food [2LP]](http://morrowrecords.com/cdn/shop/products/k_b2f7d032-02b3-49f4-ad65-3b0b52a7647c_{width}x.jpg?v=1652126101)
Food is a startling combination of Kelis' most frank and vulnerable vocals to date, and Sitek's inimitable sonic imprint. Littered with transcendent, Spector-esque lift, warm bottom ends and vast depth, the music is the perfect backdrop for Kelis' unique voice. The latter has only improved with time and experience, and the album candidly explores pain, happiness and everything in between. Recorded at Sitek's house in LA (and entirely produced by him), Kelis' new album, Food, mints a sound that's rootsy without ever being self-consciously retro, that pitches live horns and gospel organ against electronics, that for all its classic soul and funk influences, couldn't have been made any time but now.
