Terri Lyne Carrington never has shied away from discussions of social

she’s done previously can prepare listeners for Waiting Game, a two-disc
masterstroke on par with Kendrick Lamar’s 2015 hip-hop classic, To Pimp A
Butterfly, or better yet, Carrie Mae Weems’ 2016 multimedia production, Grace
Notes: Reflections for Now.
