It’s all so fluid. The songs on Steve Lacy’s new album Oh yeah? seem to spill out of him with ease, without regard for definition or expectation. Lacy’s interviews about the new LP — his first since 2022’s Grammy-winning Gemini Rights and its chart-topping breakout hit, “Bad Habit” — suggest he worked harder than ever on this music, that he locked in to a new degree. That sense of intense concentration doesn’t come across because the listening experience is so breezy.
