Yes, the Queen of Soul ‘n Funk is back. Ms. Badu’s latest offering – ‘New Amerykah Part Two: Return of The Ankh’ (Island) is being unveiled today! A few tracks leaked throughout last few months and such great downtempo tunes indeed. ‘Window Seat’ and ‘Gone Baby, Don’t Be Long’ basically detered the direction of this album. You can light up a Strawberry ‘Incense’ stick and have a glass of wine while letting Erykah Badu take control of the night.
It is a mature Ms. Badu you are listening to. All her emotions pouring into this album, as she mentioned that it’s all about right brain. Without doubt, Madlib, James Poyser, 9th Wonder, Georgia Anne Muldrow and the late J Dilla had done their jobs to secure her crown. You know, she’s an artist and she’s sensitive about her shit. We heard you, Ms. Badu!
