Her 2007 album The Art of Love \u0026amp; War nods to classic styles, blending funk, soul, balladry, and R\u0026amp;B in one tasty package. The appearance of soul great Betty Wright on the album highlight \"Baby\" only strengthens the retro vibe. Yet The Art of Love \u0026amp; War is contemporary through and through. Shimmering with a modern, digital production sheen, the album is clearly steeped in urban contemporary R\u0026amp;B, more lush and languid than stripped down and raw. Stone is no mere puppet of the past (and apparently neither is the revamped Stax): her voice, delivery, and feel are all her own, whether on butter-smooth love songs (\"Make It Last\") or hard-swinging groovers (\"Play wit It\").","brand":"Angie Stone","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":44563782107369,"sku":"1ZGUTG-DUK6-00","price":18.98,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0654\/3523\/8633\/files\/Angie-Stone-ART-OF-LOVE-WAR_Tdlz7.jpg?v=1742359019","url":"https:\/\/www.vibinvinyl.com\/products\/angie-stone-art-of-love-war","provider":"Vibin' Vinyl","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
