After the success of I Try, it seemed that Macy Gray had only moderate success, even if she had it all going for her. Recognizable voice, eccentricity, and talent, yet she faded into a unknown obscurity. In The Sellout – is she coming back to commercial music? – she collaborates with the likes of Velvet Revolver for a really catchy beat-driven Kissed It.
That’s what The Sellout is – fresh, soothing… and happy. It’s carefree and it’s got a lot of soul. She’s got little to say in her songs – who does anyway? – but that’s because she’s carefree, right? Plus, she sounds great. The music speaks to us in a way that Beyonce or Rihanna haven’t been able to.
Best: The Sellout, Kissed It, Beauty in the World, Stalker
