About this Release

The R-Evolution of Runk was released in 2009 by British singer Mams Taylor. The album title refers to Taylor’s coined genre “Runk”, a fusion of rock and funk elements combined with contemporary pop production.

Robbie Williams appeared as a guest vocalist on the track More to Life, performing a duet with Taylor. The collaboration placed Williams within a groove led, rhythm driven setting distinct from the electronic pop direction he was pursuing around the time of Reality Killed the Video Star.

More to Life blends melodic pop phrasing with funk influenced instrumentation, allowing both singers to alternate lines and share harmonies. The duet format highlights the contrast between Taylor’s stylistic concept and Williams’ established vocal tone.

The appearance represents one of Williams’ lesser known guest contributions of the late 2000s, illustrating his continued willingness to participate in collaborative projects beyond his primary solo catalogue.
