I've always admired the fact that Erykah Badu had been a trailblazer creatively. She did it on Baduizm, again on Mama's Gun, and even broke some new ground Worldwide Underground, but this one is a little over my head. I think its great that she's experimenting with new sounds and song structures but I buy music to be inspired, enlightened and entertained. I got a little of the first two but not much of the third. "Telephone" is gorgeous, deep, moody and evocative. "Me" is introspective and shows a glimpse of her former pre-Worldwide Underground self (though the ending ruins a totally good vibe). "Honey" is a good little ditty, but, this time, its the intro she butchers. Even "Amerykahn Promise", with its early 70s blaxploitation theme is cool, new and inventive in a retrospective futurefunk type of way. The rest, I hope will grow on me. I adore Erykah Badu and will continue to be a fan of hers, and hey, as long as she's happy with the album, who the hell am I to judge? But, if this keeps up, I'll just have to be a fan of hers personally and not musically. I wish I'd bought my favorite songs individually instead of wasting thirteen bucks on the whole cd. My cousin told me I wouldn't like it. So much for not listening to kinfolks!!!Free Music Review: Erykah Badu does it again!!!

New Amerykah......I just what the game needs......something different. All the Hogwash that's flooding the airwaves has been driving me insane. I'm glad Erykah stays true to herself and keeps putting out dope musik.Free Music Review: Erykah Badu is really out there!

I usuallly listen to Ms. Badu and enjoy her music. I struggled to understand what her intentions were behind this piece. I will listen to it again, and hopefully enjoy it.Free Music Review: Some will get it some won't.

New Amerykah is beyond what most people are able to comprehend. It is full of powerful messages for those who "stay woke". Amerykah's promise is a brilliant track that would surely ruffle the feathers of "patriotic" citizens. Master Teachers is thought provoking. Truth hurts? Yes, many of Erykah's fans have taken their rightful place as "Master Teachers". While, I agree there seems to be something missing on this CD ,I do love it.Some will get it some won't. "Hold on my people" music like this will only help to keep that 3rd eye open and activated. Free Music Review: She Is Baaad!!!!

Call it neo-soul, hip-hop, whatever! This is a great album! It's not just her singing, it's also what she is saying that makes this collection of songs so special.
