Erykah Badu – New AmErykah Part One

February 27, 2008 by S C

Erykah Badu’s most recent full length release, “New AmErykah Part One” comes out guns-a-blazin’ and enlists the help of producers Madlib, 9th Wonder, Sa Ra Collective, Questlove of The Roots, James Poyser and J Dilla to provide the raw, synthed out, 70’s nostalgic backdrops while Badu holds her it down on the boards for a few cuts. Guest appearances by Georgia Anne Muldrow, Bilal, and Ty & Kory. Peep the “Honey” video below. Hit us up with a comment and see if you can name all the records they reference and play around with in the video. And if you get them all correct, donuts are on me. And that’s word to James Yancey.

Badu’s “Honey” video is just too sweet.
