This seems to be a similar theme in “Good Man”, the latest track off his upcoming Radio (due out March 22nd).

These four songs, impeccably recorded and performed (complete with some snazzy barroom piano), only increase my frustration that Saadiq’s recent work hasn’t resulted in Grammy-winning superstardom.
