Rev’s DJ Pick of the Week is “What About The Children” by Gary Clark Jr.!
Clark Jr. is a four-time Grammy winning multi-instrumentalist, songwriter and performer. Over the years, he’s progressed from a teen guitar prodigy getting co-signs from Eric Clapton to a revered artist with four studio albums to his name.
Clark Jr. released his latest LP JPEG RAW earlier this month. Clark Jr. created the album with Jacob Sciba, his longtime collaborator and co-producer. JPEG RAW features legendary artists like Stevie Wonder and George Clinton from Parliament-Funkadelic on its tracklist.
Clark Jr. will kick off his latest world tour on May 8. Be sure to get your tickets here.
“What About The Children” is a highlight off JPEG RAW. Co-written and performed with Wonder, the track features powerful vocals, pristine guitar riffs and an unbridled groove.
Clark Jr. received a demo from Wonder in 2020, which led to the creation of “What About The Children.” The finished product is a sleek embodiment of Wonder’s classic soul tunes.
“What About The Children” considers human struggle in our world and the children who hope for a better future. Clark Jr. and Wonder sing with vitality and an impeccable blend. You won’t want to miss out on hearing two powerful forces like Clark Jr. and Wonder coming together.
