"Just when you think Murray has run out of new career moves, he decides to hookup with R&B vocalist Macy Gray and take the show on the road. Some of the results of this musical venture can be heard on Be My Monster Love. Here, Murray decided to record some vocal jazz using Gray and the up-and-coming, highly talented vocalist Gregory Porter. The bonus here, though, is Murray using the great American writer/poet (and Berkeley Homie Ishmael Reed to write the lyrics".

Aside from a new rhythm section, the promise here involves the inclusion of singers Macy Gray (...) and (...) Gregory Porter".
