Macy Gray doesn’t have to prove herself anymore. With her tenth album, Ruby, the singer and composer confirms her position as an artist but also as a femme fatale. Two years after Stripped, her ingenious talent for mixing Soul with R&B, jazz and pop is still there. With a confident look underlined by her sparkling make-up, Macy Gray strikes a pose. No filters on Ruby! We find here rather daring themes that are orientated towards realism. Like on the single Sugar Daddy that was co-written with the singer Meghan Trainor. Her slightly nasal soul veers towards funk at points and takes itself lightly despite the circumstances. Produced by Tommy Parker Lumpkins, Johan Carlsson and Tommy Brown, the soul sister with a unique voice knows how to choose her surroundings. She’s a strong woman who releases here a feminist record where narrative is important, such as on the tracks Cold War, Over You or Jealousy and its electro influences. Equipped with an impeccable swing, Macy Gray once again charms us with her quirky soul that is difficult to grow tired of. – Anna Coluthe
