I've been listening to her second studio album "Mama's Gun" a whole lot...she's such a classy singer, and the songs and live musicians are great. I don't have her first, though I like the little I've heard. So what's the consensus?

― Jordan, Tuesday, 17 July 2001 00:00 (11 years ago) Permalink

Her early singles were teriffic. I find her work to be hit-or-miss. "Southern Girl" with Rhazel skirts that territory between condescending and self-mockery. Humble Mumble by Oukast, feat. her, is much the better for her vocal work.

― Sterling Clover, Tuesday, 17 July 2001 00:00 (11 years ago) Permalink

I was listening to an album of hers (don't know which, not Bag Lady or whatever though I think) at a friend's once, and was totally turned off by the beats. Not their rhythms, but the SUPER PRECISE ULTRALOUD FAUX WOODBLOCK. Does all her music have that? Cuz it fucking pissed me off.

classic! none of that rap n bullshit, watered down, destinys child crap that all you brits are into. erykah is the real deal.

― chaki, Tuesday, 17 July 2001 00:00 (11 years ago) Permalink

For that description alone, my appreciation for Destiny's Child just skyrocketed. And I'm not British either, so ha. ;-)

― Ned Raggett, Tuesday, 17 July 2001 00:00 (11 years ago) Permalink

Erykah is so watered down that half her songs are on the verge of evaporation. Not that I mind. The whole nu-soul demographic grab, on the other hand, I find fairly odious and reactionary.

― Sterling Clover, Tuesday, 17 July 2001 00:00 (11 years ago) Permalink

Oh shut up, Chaki. You're Tom Cox with swearwords.

What I've heard by her I'm indifferent to. Indifferent, note: not excited, but not repulsed as I am by Macy Gray and her acolytes. I can't help thinking that Badu was the (unwitting?) catalyst for the whole odious u-soul thing in that she appeared before any of its perpetrators (and before Lauryn Hill had gone solo) and her influence seems to have run through those who have followed.

So: Erykah Badu - not dud / subsequent nu-soul - ultimate dud.

Semi-dud innit? Early singles pretty good, than the album by some strange international law featured in every single cafe/bar/pub in the world. So it all became meaningless. Now she's just that really good singer with boring tunes and crap headgear.

― Omar, Wednesday, 18 July 2001 00:00 (11 years ago) Permalink

I have to say she's classic. I was totally down on _Mama's Gun_ until hearing it through a friend's car stereo 8 weeks ago. It transformed into the most affecting thing in the world. She would benefit from working with some different producers, but she's got the goods for real.

Macy Gray needs to go far, far away. Jill Scott rocks the house like nobody's business.

― Dan Perry, Wednesday, 18 July 2001 00:00 (11 years ago) Permalink

Track one of Mama's Gun is *not* better than a combination of champignon cheese, light crackers, a tart apple and Moet et Chandon chilled correctly. Ergo Chaki is wrong -- but then again most everything couldn't match that level either.

― Ned Raggett, Wednesday, 18 July 2001 00:00 (11 years ago) Permalink

Classic. I bought her first album and dragged a friend to see her sing at Tramps in NY, had to be about 3 years ago. Mama's Gun I didn't buy right away and put off listening to for a while, don't know why. I think it's uneven but I really love Booty and Cleva.

Fuck Jill Scott. She's the smiling, fat black lady that sings about love and non threatening things. She's exactly the same bullshit kind of black artist the white american music honchos want you to listen to. Thats why she's embraced by the industry. Its called 'The Mammy Syndrome' and its exactly what Miles hated about Satchmo. Erykah is strong, funky and has an actually message within her lyrics which is why you'll never see 'Bag Lady' on mtv in the states.

i was just expressing to josh how much i like jill scott better than erykah. i need to think about this for a while.

of course i should probably let someone else mention that the only person who mentioned jilly from philly was dan, which sort of puts down your little theory.

― ethan, Saturday, 21 July 2001 00:00 (11 years ago) Permalink

Riiight. There's an actual conspiracy to keep people from hearing songs with actual messages. Because record bosses like inflicting crap music on the listening public. And that's why Badu is a bestselling critic's darling. Riiiight. The establishment is quaking in its boots over this.

― Sterling Clover, Sunday, 22 July 2001 00:00 (11 years ago) Permalink

yeah, for real, like jill scott is this huge- selling megastar and badu is some starving artist or something. i'd say their popularity levels are pretty equal. anyway i sawerykah's last video on mtv, it was also an mtv news segment when the album came out.

you guys are in fucking denial.

― chaki, Sunday, 22 July 2001 00:00 (11 years ago) Permalink

Erykah and Nu-Soul:

"On and On" was great. Subsequently releases have been progressively mediocre (funny how D'Angelo and Erykah have both nosedived considerably as the genre they helped create has risen in profile). Jill Scott is much better, 'cos she has actual tunes, delightful voice and relatively nice production. Angie Stone should be a house diva, not an R&B diva. Musiq Soulchild is forgettable. India.Arie = too far pleased with herself.

― Tim, Sunday, 22 July 2001 00:00 (11 years ago) Permalink

If Miles actually said that about Louis Armstrong, he's an even bigger idiot than I thought he was, and you're an even bigger idiot than him for going along with that nonsense.

BTW, unlike TimF I think that Erykah Badu and D'Angelo have improved a lot since their debuts.

― Patrick, Sunday, 22 July 2001 00:00 (11 years ago) Permalink

"It's called 'The Mammy Syndrome' and its exactly what Miles hated about Satchmo."

Ooh, two top lies in one small sentence. a. Miles hated Satchmo = rubbish, because he workshipped him and never stopped saying so. b. Satchmo as Uncle Tom = typical latecome look-at-me advertorial by young soon-to-be-sellouts manipulatively presenting THEIR industry-friendliness as some species of Radical Cultural Politics. Armstrong = most revolutionary American artist of 20th century in all art-forms (by some way).

Destiny's Child = second. (OK, I'm joking. Fourth.)

― mark s, Sunday, 22 July 2001 00:00 (11 years ago) Permalink

Eh. In his autobiography Miles does say he hated that about Armstrong, despite loving the guy's music/the guy.

But this bullshit about you-chumps-are-in-denial-blah-blah is still bullshit.

― Josh, Sunday, 22 July 2001 00:00 (11 years ago) Permalink

(His "auto"biography which is unfortunately a glaringly obvious example of me-here-now get-with-whitey-by-being-badaass... unfortunate because a full-on truth-telling non-games-playing miles, tho self-evidently more vulnerable to all sorts of whatever, would have delivered a much more important book...)

although i've sadly been guilty of it in the past, accusing cheerful and nonthreatening black artists of being uncle toms = also dud, and subtle promotion of racial segregation.

>Pinning black artists with duty to "represent" for the entire race = >dud.

I agree! The music industry does it all time! To say they don't and i'm crazy for thinking so is seriously pathetic. When Ms. Badu first came out she was critically acclaimed and recieved lots of airplay. As she progressed as an artist her views and music became more radical. The american press and radio pretty much pushed her aside. The record company didn't publisize her last record in the states at all. Now that her head is shaved and she's talking hardcore black power, she is a complete nobosy as far as the buisness is concerned. Fortunatly she can still pack an arena so she can still make hers. Bling Bling. Oh and Miles did say that about Satchmo.

― chaki, Sunday, 22 July 2001 00:00 (11 years ago) Permalink

Omar - As a musician/performer, Miles = genius. As a person, he appeared to have some, shall we say, attitude problems, the anti-Armstrong quote being a prime example of the bullshit he was capable of.

― Patrick, Sunday, 22 July 2001 00:00 (11 years ago) Permalink

Thats not true.. Mention Louie's name around any average human being and the image of a laughing fat black man will appear in their head. Its the only way the public would accept him.

― chaki, Monday, 23 July 2001 00:00 (11 years ago) Permalink

Go away and ACTUALLY FIND SOMETHING OUT ABOUT ARMSTRONG, his life and his achievement, then come back to discuss this, Chaki. You have no real right to cop attitude abt the igorance and/or racism of the industry or the public as long as YOU make no more effort than you're saying THEY do. Miles probably did say what you said he did about Armstrong in his book: which is a rubbishy and a dishonest book (by a great player).

― mark s, Monday, 23 July 2001 00:00 (11 years ago) Permalink

Chaki, I appreciate that you've got some strongly-held beliefs, but I would really like to give you a FEROCIOUS BITCHSLAP for implying that the fact that I like Jill Scott makes me a white racist. I'd also like to point out that I said I liked BOTH Jill Scott AND Erykah Badu, NOT that Jill Scott was BETTER than Erykah Badu.

Using me to go off on a misdirected rant = DUD.

I don't know how to follow that last post up, but I'll try.

"Love of My Life" has the honour of being the first track that I regret not hearing in time for a best of 2002 list. It's not the first hip-hop nostalgia song, but it's the first one I've heard that really gives a feeling of what it's like to grow up with hip-hop ("I met him when I was a lttle girl...") And then Common genderfucks the personification, and even gives the gangstas their due (aside: is Electric Circus any good?) If the track lacks harsh words to say about its subject, that's not the purpose of odes.

Nice orchestral/kitchen appliance/something sound FX too. Anyone know who produced this - Erykah, or someone else?

Badu is great on a sound level (the voice, often matched to complementary, if not always perfect, sounds), at least interesting (if not intriguing) on a writing level, and pretty good on a persona level (she's nice and thoughtful). Baduizm seems like her 'testament' album. I like the live one a good but, maybe because the extra space in her music gets filled by some good jazzy stuff from her band (tho it's a little too smooth in sound/style), and I love the part when she raps. Mama's Gun probably has the most substance. Humble Mumble is one of my favorite Stankonia tracks, tho that's not just about her obviously. But I feel like there's always something missing just a little bit in all of her stuff. Part of her appeal is her ability to float on top of her music, but sometimes she drifts away.

Finally:

Erykah Badu revealed the new title of her fourth album, "Nu AmErykah," to a small room of fans in New York's Electric Lady studios last Thursday (Dec. 6). The set is due Feb. 26 via Universal Motown.

In reference to the prior provisional title, "Kabbah," Badu says that that name was never final and that she prefers to wait and title her albums once they're finished.

"I named this album 'Nu AmErykah' because I'm dealing with whatever is to come instead of what was," said Badu, decked out in jeans, a red kimono and her trademark afro. "In taking on a project like this, I'm taking the responsibility to talk for my race and my planet. I'm sure the record company will make their money and they've given me the blessing of time."

Badu's last EP, "Worldwide Underground," arrived in 2003 without much fanfare, but it still sold 609,000 copies in the United States, according to Nielsen SoundScan. "I didn't feel like doing the whole promotional circuit for that record," she admitted. "I'd just had a baby."

Making up for lost time, "Nu AmErykah" includes 18 songs that will be spread over two separately sold discs. The first single, "Honey," was produced by 9th Wonder and the '70s soul-tinged "Soldier 7" may be the follow-up track.

"We've waited almost 10 years for this album to come," said Universal executive vice president and Motown president Sylvia Rhone. "She inspires, sets trends and does music that no one's done before. Male, female, black white can listen to her and come away with something."

Here is the track list for "Nu AmErykah":

"American Promise"
"The Healer"
"Me"
"My People"
"Speech"
"Soldier 7"
"The Cell"
"Twinkle"
"Love Me"
"Honey"
"Emotions"
"Don't Be Long"
"YPOM"
"Hot Slow Jam"
"Jump Up in the Air"
"Loretta Brown"
"Dirty Dirty"
"The Healer Outro"

merely filming a scene doesn't mean you're effectively consenting for it to be released at all.

Actually, it does, unless you have a contract that explicitly states otherwise. Which I would have, if I were getting filmed naked and covered with goo.

Beyond structure and girth, there is a world of difference between "Green Eyes" and "Out My Mind." One is nostalgic/throwback to complement her romantic recidivism. The other is, as pointed out, fractured avant nonsense, the perfect accompaniment to her clearly premature optimism about walking away.

I think they're both great, tho, as is "I Want You."

I don't dislike anything she's done.

Except the Cannabinoids shit.
