This week on Every Last Record, we’re breaking down Dinner Party, the collaborative album from Robert Glasper, Terrace Martin, Kamasi Washington, and 9th Wonder.

With a lineup like this, you might expect something huge, flashy, and grandiose. Instead, the group takes the opposite approach.

We talk about how the instrumentation carries the album, how the musicians resist the urge to lean too heavily on vocals or lyrics, and why that restraint is part of what makes the project work.

We also get into Dinner Party: Dessert, which brings in more vocal performances and satisfies some of the cravings you may have after hearing the original version.

Most importantly, we discuss how this album feels less like a group of elite musicians trying to prove something and more like friends creating music they genuinely love.

Did the restraint make Dinner Party better, or did the lineup leave you wanting more?

Watch the full discussion and let us know where you stand.
