"Everybody wants a favor, everybody needs me," Khalid exhaustedly grumbles on "Hundred," a dispirited soft pop ballad placed in the middle of Free Spirit. Going by the unrelenting campaign to keep him in the spotlight since he hit with "Location," the statement doesn't seem all that hyperbolic. During the two years that passed between American Teen and Free Spirit, he took part in a decade's worth of collaborations and stylistic crossovers, plus frequent touring amid nonstop promotional duties, all the while earning five Grammy nominations and accumulating a stack of platinum certifications. As much as any other artist who shot to fame on the brink of adulthood, Khalid could be forgiven for turning in a woeful post-fame album and checking out. "Hundred" isn't the only song on which he vents. The downcast "Bad Luck" lashes out at parasitic behavior, and in a number of other songs, Khalid seeks escape from stifling situations, consumed by internal conflict, this close to swearing off all communication via WiFi for at least five minutes. These feelings aren't unique to pop stars, and even though they make up a fair portion of Free Spirit, Khalid and his fellow songwriters never express them in such specific language that an everyday listener can't relate to. More than anything else, the album works through emotional struggles of early adulthood -- from anguish over faltering relationships and insecurity about expressing grief, to yearning for a simple stolen moment beneath the bleachers. Consequently, Free Spirit is not an illustrative title. In the song itself, the notion is merely aspirational and wistful, with Khalid vividly recalling, "We were drownin' down our memories/A cemetery full of broken bottles, man, that liquor bleed." Khalid's voice is smoother, richer, and therefore more expressive here than it was on the debut. It'll probably sound even better after a long-deserved break. ~ Andy Kellman

商品の紹介

今最も勢いのある若手R&Bスター=Khalid(カリード)の待望の2nd アルバム『Free Spirit』

昨年の第60回グラミー賞で＜新人賞＞を含む計5部門にノミネートされたR&Bスター=Khalid(カリード)が、ニュー・アルバム『Free Spirit』を発売する。今作は、2017年3月にリリースされ200万セールスを記録したデビュー・アルバム『American Teen』に続く待望の2作目。新作からシングル「My Bad」は、誰もが一度は経験したことがあるような、恋人と徐々にすれ違ってしまう様子を赤裸々に歌った楽曲で、シンプルなギター・サウンドがカリードのスムーズな美声をより一層際立たせている。カリードが放つセカンド・アルバムに、期待せずにはいられない。

発売・販売元提供資料（2019/03/15）

Rolling Stone - 3 stars out of 5 -- "The best moments recall AMERICAN TEEN's airy feel and warm charisma." Billboard - "[I]t's nice to see broadly appealing pop-soul make a comeback. Khalid, 21, is an old soul; FREE SPIRIT may end up a modern classic."

2018年のEPを前哨戦として放つ2年ぶりの2作目。アンニュイな歌声で時折ファルセットを交えて淡々と歌うスタイルやデジタル・ネイティヴな世代の感性が滲むリリックは基本的に変わらない。が、チャーリー・ハンサムとディジを中心にスターゲイトらも制作に関与した楽曲は、EPからの"Better"がスムースなトラップ調だったり、ビッグ・パンの名曲に着想を得た"Right Back"が軽快なミディアムだったりと、前作よりもリズムが立っている。D・マイルやDJダーヒがオーガニックな曲で腕を揮うなか、ディスクロージャーと組んだ"Talk"が直球なR&Bという意外性も。ジョン・メイヤーを招いた80sギター・ポップ風の"Outta My Head"などにも感じられる音楽的な自由度がサウンドの華やかさと共に増した好盤だ。
