by Mike Jacobs

Robert Glasper, Miles Davis: Everything's Beautiful
by Asher Wolf
Miles Davis birthed cool in 1949 and nearly took it to the grave with him 52 years later. His first venture into hip-hop and last studio album, Doo-Bop, represented the least cool moment for America's icon of coolness itself.
