Tank Refuses to Be Put in a Box

Tank continues to prove why he’s one of the most versatile voices in R&B with EXPERIENCE.
What I love most about this album is that Tank refuses to stay in one box. You get the smooth, soulful R&B we know him for, but he also experiments with Trap&B, gospel, dance, and even country influences. Some of those risks won’t be for everybody, but I respect him for taking them instead of giving us the same album over and over.
The album really hits its stride with tracks like “When You Come Around,” “YES,” “You Know,” “Recovery,” and “Reciprocate” There’s plenty here for longtime Tank fans while still showing a different side of what he can do creatively.
Personally, I LOVE this album. The experimentation may be divisive, but that’s exactly what makes EXPERIENCE feel like an experience. Tank is clearly comfortable challenging expectations and showing that he’s capable of much more than just slow jams.
A strong addition to his catalog and another reminder that Tank is still pushing R&B forward.
