American jazz trumpeter and flugelhorn player Roy Hargrove made his most enduring mark as a fusionist, poking holes in the barriers between every genre between gospel to hip-hop, and this is a legacy more than cemented on one of his many great LPs, Hard Groove, titularly playing on his name while amounting to a paragon in the art of genre-busting. Running the entire gamut of styles Hargrove was interested and involved in at the turn of the millennium, the album brings together many covers and renditions, with D'Angelo appearing on the cover of Funkadelic's 'I'll Stay' and Q-Tip on 'Poetry', among many other greats.
