Charlotte, North Carolina’s Benji Hughes fronted a rock band in the nineties. He’s written commercial jingles ( Got a Little Captain in You? for Captain Morgan rum). He’s made music for film and television (Walk Hard, Eastbound & Down). And there is something magical about Songs in the Key of Animals. Hughes played most of the music on it, but the album is still full of collaboration. You can hear the chemistry between Hughes and the female vocalists he sings with on this record. One of those singers happens to be Meshell Ndegeocello (who also plays bass on many of the tracks).

You don't just pen a tune like "Girls Love Shoes" in 2016 or rhyme 'monkey' with 'donkey' in the first stanza without claspin' some serious tongue-in-cheek tendencies, right? Besides, the contrast of panicked screams-n-chatter with a mild-mannered sugar-hook is a-ok in my book, faceless studio-female voice-appendages provide a l foil, and once the perpetual gag that is this album's first half has passed, far-more-endurable legitimacies are the norm: "Magic Summertime" is actually a bit magical, "Picnic" a mild.
