But sometimes the process is much more intuitive and effortless. Sometimes the planets line up and the right groove emerges on its own, and all anyone needs to do - musicians and listeners alike - is get on board and ride into a realm of limitless possibilities.That intuitive approach is at the heart of Mind Over Matter. In addition to Najee's fine balance of songcraft and musicianship, the album also includes songwriting and guest appearances by keyboardist Jeff Lorber and vocalists Eric Benét and Gary Taylor. The album title, says Najee, is inspired by Miles Davis' approach to songwriting, especially in the latter part of his career. "In his later years, he took a very loose and improvisational approach," he says. "He would start with nothing more than a groove that Marcus Miller or some other member of his band would lay down. And from there he would just develop these melodies that were very simple but at the same time very compelling and very memorable. It was a creative process that bypassed the nuts and bolts of the song and just got right to the essence of it."Whatever the groove - be it R&B, neo-soul, contemporary jazz or an intriguing blend of all these styles and more - Mind Over Matter adds another layer of sophistication and polish to Najee's substantial and diverse body of work. "Whenever I go into the studio, I try to make a record that's a little different from the last one," he says. "I want people to get the same Najee that they're familiar and comfortable with, but at the same time, I want them to hear something fresh, something interesting, something unpredictable - with a couple extra voices in the mix that they haven't heard on my records in the past." ## Images ![Mind Over Matter - Image 1](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/71MMTk3zMNL.jpg) ![Mind Over Matter - Image 2](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/710+Gh5bcnL.jpg) ## Customer Reviews ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Excellent, any Najee fan will love this CD. I have seen him play many of the songs off of this CD live. One of the Best *by K***X on November 8, 2013* Excellent, any Najee fan will love this CD. I have seen him play many of the songs off of this CD live.His skills as a musician never disapoint. As always, he has his own sound and does a lot of good work on the soprano and tenor sax as well as the flute. Outside of the late Grover Washington jr., you'd be hard pressed to find any sax player on the smooth jazz charts today that have an authentic Jazz/R&B style out of the late 80's to 90's era( circa CD101.9 FM in NY). It all has a lot to do with growing up and listening to the sounds that came out of South East Queens, NY,(aka Jamaica (Queens NY) ,.St. Albans..Springfield Gardens...Cambria Heights Laurelton...etc) Yes, middle class black america ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Mind Over Matter is just great *by M***S on June 18, 2014* Hearing this album via a friend caused me to just run to order this selection. Carolina Moon is one of my favorite songs but the whole CD just a great easy listening experience. If I'm in a bad mood, this will set me on the right direction of calmness and peace. ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Did not expect it but they took great care of me with an issue I had with ... *by M***. on August 6, 2017* Did not expect it but they took great care of me with an issue I had with no hesitations!
