Terrace Martin is known for being the main producer on Kendrick Lamarâs historic masterpiece To Pimp A Butterfly. His debut album 3ChordFold, released in 2013, is finally available on vinyl!
When this album was released in 2013, he was still not well-known worldwide, but had already gained a following as a notable producer in the hip-hop and jazz worlds. The album features guest appearances from a number of great musicians, including Kendrick Lamar, Robert Glasper, Snoop Dogg, Ab-Soul, Wiz Khalifa, Lalah Hathaway, Musiq Soulchild, Ty Dolla $ign and 9th wonder. It should also be noted that a number of artists who stepped up later have participated on the album.
The style of seamlessly combining sampling and instrumental performance to freely cross hip-hop, soul, and jazz is reminiscent of the Soulquarians, and is showcased in a cover of âIâm For Real,â an 80âs urban soul gem by Howard Hewett, featuring with a star-studded lineup including Snoop Dogg and Lalah Hathaway. Kendrick Lamar is featured on the exquisite mellow tune âTriangle Shipâ, which samples the AOR classic âWhat You Wonât Do For Loveâ by Bobby Caldwell. ""No Wrong No Right"" is a collaboration between Jazz pianist Robert Glasper and James Fauntleroy, who was given seven songwriting credits on Bruno Marsâ Grammy-winning album 24K Magic. âWatch U Sleepâ is produced and featured by Focus, who was a big hit on Dr. Dreâs remarkable returning album âComptonâ.
