2023 Grammy Award-Winner for Best R&B Album

Four-time Grammy Award-winning artist and producer Robert Glasper delivers his highly anticipated third installment to the Black Radio album series! Black Radio III, much like both of its predecessors (2012's Black Radio and 2013's Black Radio 2), is a cultural moment that celebrates black love and resilience, features an eclectic group of talented collaborators, and is composed by Glasper who the New York Times proclaims is "probably the most prominent jazz musician of his generation". An innovative and essential addition to Glasper's seminal Black Radio series!

With lyrics that express gratitude and evoke a rise-up spirit, lead single "Shine" (feat. Inglewood, CA natives, D Smoke and Tiffany Gouché) serves as Glasper's first since a strong 2021 Grammy showing, nominated for Best Progressive R&B Album and taking home Best R&B Song for "Better Than I Imagined" (feat. H.E.R.). Robert says, "I was so happy to collaborate with D Smoke on this song. He's definitely one of the leading voices in today's new generation of hip hop. He has his feet planted in the soil of real music and comes from a family of amazing musicians and artists. That being said, also shout out to Tiffany Gouché, his cousin who's on the song as well. We want to see everybody shine."
