First off, I gotta say, listening to any Erykah Badu track always puts me at ease and forces me to just let go. I just bought her newest album New Amerykah Pt.2: Return of the Ankh off of iTunes last night and I've been playing it nonstop. Erykah does it again, she is truly an artist. Not only does she paint a picture with every song on this album but she also writes somewhat of introduction/story of herself in the Digital Booklet. This woman is undoubtedly phenomenal and I will forever be a fan of her work. She never ceases to amaze me and I still cannot believe I have yet to see her live! Oh, but I will definitely change that.

"...From the start, Badu stood as the most radical of the '90s alterna-soul stars. Among her original peers, D'Angelo has since disappeared and Maxwell streamlined his sound into something more trenchant and sweet... Badu's music risks disappearing into its own mystic ambition..."
