Charles Bradley will release his latest album, Changes, next week on April 1, and today NPR is streaming the album in its entirety.

According to NPR, the record, which follows up 2014’s Victim of Love, “continues in the general path of his previous work, with some key alterations. The rhythms inch closer to modernity, and the material suggests Bradley and his songwriting partners in the Menahan Street Band recognize there’s a limit to how many visits he can make to the well of autobiographical woe. The lyrics are a touch more upbeat — there are songs celebrating the redeeming power of love alongside ones that chronicle devastation.”
