One can hear Braxton Cook breaking through on "Not Everyone Can Go," a mix of jazz and R&B that feels indebted to similar hybrids of yesteryear. Musically, the album conjures images of bright evening sunshine, when the temperature begins to cool. Not quite Quiet Storm, instead, "Not Everyone Can Go" dabbles between the margins, which won’t surprise those who’ve followed Cook to this point.
Across albums like "Somewhere In Between," "No Doubt and Who Are You When No One Is Watching?," he’s made a career of blurring the lines between genres, landing on a sound that isn’t one thing, in particular.
While that’s made his music tough to pin down, that also makes it all the more intriguing. That you can’t label it just R&B or just jazz lends to the music’s attraction.
