Erykah Badu: C /D, S&D

hahahaha!

agitation, produced by sa ra, is one of the gems on this album... has a real rotary connection feel to it.

That one fills the "Amerykahn Promise" slot this time right? Flat out track jack? (But a good one, nonetheless.)

ooh, i'm not sure - don't recognise the source, and there's nothing on the song-writing credits i have suggesting that

It's "Just As I Thought" by David Sancious

that's totally right, thanks for cluing me in on that eric

do u guys have this record now?

reviewing via nu-fangled stream, innit

It's "Just As I Thought" by David Sancious

i can't get the fucking fucking stupid stream to work >>>:(

~analog boy in a digital world~

Full-blown copies are circulating, so it's only a matter of time before someone uploads.

Oh, and ...

Just sayin'

Oops, I meant

... I don't get it.

The album cover design seems very similar to me.

Plus both are like about 45 minutes long. And totally awesome for it.

But don't mind me. There are about four artists out there I'm fanatical about and I tend to believe they are all the same person.

wtf those album covers are nothing alike :|

But don't mind me.

re: "Take Me." Really?

Also, the McCartney sample seems like the only really adventurous one out of the lineup.

really?! "Arrow Through Me" is one of my touchstones.

out all day, missed this in my inbox

This album is really 80s isn't it? All of these thick modern soul synths, rubbery basslines... I'm not really hearing the organic "throwback to Baduizm" thing people were saying besides "Window Seat"

spank rock -_-

She kinda fulfilled the adventure quota ten times over with the last one, no?

Yeah, most of the samples are '79/'80. The album could have come out on 2000 Black (but then Kaidi and Dego etc would have replayed everything).

I'm not really hearing the organic "throwback to Baduizm" thing people were saying besides "Window Seat"

Me neither, and the last song with Muldrow is a very different organic.

re: "Take Me." Really?

Yes, really -- slowed a bit.

really?! "Arrow Through Me" is one of my touchstones.

Yes, really -- untouched, more or less. (You can even hear Paul's "Oooooh"s.)

And by untouched I mean the basic groove is there. It's not like it's the song note-for-note with Erykah's voice over it.

"My Darling Baby" by Wood, Brass & Steel is also used, but it's not on YouTube.

This has leaked.

then she's not gonna release it ;(

The one that samples Wings is marvelous.

FUCK STUDYING

fuck listening to gus johnson announce a basketball game?

:(

Mixed emotions DL-ing it, but this is really the only way I'm getting a review in on it.

It's streaming on Luisterpaal now.
