Sparkling melodies and personal lyrical insights dazzle throughout 'The Sellout', an authentic and confidently delivered statement from one of contemporary music's most skillful and creative forces.

'The Sellout' is Macy Gray's first album in more than 3 years. The album was mixed by four-time Grammy Award winning mixer Manny Marroquin whose credits include top 10 singles for Lady Gaga, Jay Z, Rihanna, Alicia Keyes, Kanye West and John Mayer. Collaborators on the album include T.I., Bobby Brown, The Bodyrockers' Kaz James and Slash, Duff McKagan and Matt Sorum formerly of Guns N' Roses and Velvet Revolver.

It's clear from opening moments of the record's first single, the irresistibly anthemic "Beauty in the World", that 'The Sellout' is the work of an artist who has reconnected with the essence of her creative gifts after a long, soul-numbing journey through the music biz's star-making machinery.

Sparkling melodies and personal lyrical insights dazzle throughout 'The Sellout', an authentic and confidently delivered statement from one of contemporary music's most skillful and creative forces. The highlights are rich and plentiful including the alluring, soul-pop groove of "Lately"; "That Man", a mouth-watering slice of Ting Ting's inflected 80's new-wave; the Joan Jett meets T- Rex thump and screaming Slash guitar of "Kissed It", and the beguiling, "Still Hurts", a vulnerable, emotion filled keep- sake ballad, just to name a few.
