Erykah Badu speaks out on Billboard about her newest album, set to be released after a long interlude of almost 15 years.
Produced by the N.Y.-based beatmaker The Alchemist, the album will undoubtedly be interesting; one can expect a meshing between The Alchemist’s grimy “boom-bap style” and Badu’s ethereal roots in “Neo-soul.” In the Billboard’s article, Badu describes the build-up to the album, stating that” she can’t wait until [it’s] done.” Fans are in agreement, flocking to the artist’s Instagram page to view her album teaser -groupies lay in wait. With no official release date for Badu’s new album, her upcoming Rapsody project, “Please Don’t Cry,” will hopefully placate fans -and, according to Hotnewhiphop, is planning to be released on May 17th.
