    To be honest I wasn’t that pleasantly surprised by Steve Lacy’s new album. The singles were really promising but the album in whole didn’t make up for my expectations and hopes. It felt like all the songs were kinda mediocre and boring (counting out a few). It felt kinda like listening to the same song over and over at moments. I still do love Steve Lacy and he does have a bright futureTo be honest I wasn’t that pleasantly surprised by Steve Lacy’s new album.

    Gemini Rights is a coming of age album where Lacy asserts that whatever journey he’s been on, it’s clear he now knows who he wants to become.

    From top to bottom, Lacy's strums scratch an itch with a tinge of abrasiveness. Keyboards supplied throughout by sensitive and unobtrusive players John Carroll Kirby and Ely Rise, background harmonies from a quartet of women (including Lacy's sisters), and occasional production help from DJ Dahi and the Internet's Matt Martians all enhance Lacy's sound without complicating it.

    With his sophomore album, Lacy has established a few things. He’s talented, driven, and able to connect and resonate with his listeners. He hasn’t harnessed the full power of his ability yet, but as he continues to pave a path in front of him, his Gemini star will shine brightly when he does.
