Best by Far (2004)

Omar
Reviewed by Raymond Fiore | Apr 09, 2004

Details Release Date: Mar 30, 2004; Lead Performance: Omar

The neo-soul pioneer's latest was originally released overseas in 2000, but the beautifully arranged tunes sound fresh as ever -- a seamless collage of Earth, Wind & Fire horn pops, lusty Cameo cyberfunk, and whimsical jazz romps. Angie Stone even lends sweet vocal support on the radio-friendly jam ''Be Thankful.''
