When we posted José James' last single "Bag Lady" in Nov' 22 we mentioned that it was from a forthcoming album
dedicated to the Bag Lady herself, "The Queen of Neo Soul", Erykah Badu
(Erica White). Well that day has arrived and "On & On" is out today (20 Jan '23).
The album opens with her 1996 debut single "On & On" from "Baduizm"
and continues with:
"Didn't Cha Know?" ("Mama's Gun" 2000)
"Green Eyes" ("Mama's Gun" 2000) non single
"Healer" ("New Amerykah Part One (4th World War)" 2008)
"Gone Baby, Don't Be Long" ("New Amerykah Part Two (Return of the Ankh)"
2011)
"Out My Mind, Just In Time" ("New Amerykah Part Two (Return of the Ankh)"
2011) non single
"Bag Lady" ("Mama's Gun" 2000) ,
James say about the album: "Jazz singing has always been about interpreting the highest level of
standards of your time. And for my generation Erykah Badu has been one of
the most innovative and incisive songwriters. Her work has proven to be
groundbreaking in a social, musical and artistic sense."
On the album, James introduces opportunities for featured horn players
Ebban Dorsey and Diana Dzhabbar.
