Music reviews of Mama's Gun
Music Review: Neosoul at it's Best!!!!!!!
Rating: 5 Stars
Ms. Badu has got the the vibes the lyrics and the beautiful voice. Her music is not just something to shake your*** to like a lot of the other so called female singers on the market. This CD and all of Ms. Badu's others have meaning and poetry plus so much more to offer and she can really sing.I have many favorites from this CD,my most favorites are Green eyes and Orange moon.The songs are beautiful.I hope Ms. Badu does not slow down too much, I do know she has a couple of kids,but please don't stop this great music.
Description of Mama's Gun
A true tour de force, Mama's Gun is that rare sophomore album that shows a maturing artist at her best. Erykah Badu's voice was always her main attraction--its unique sound has been compared to Billie Holiday and Chaka Khan. Here, it's her skill with that voice that shines. Badu shapes her instrument to suit her material (all of it written or cowritten by her). A full range is represented: On faster, danceable tracks like "Penitentiary Philosophy" and "Booty," she sounds gritty and funky. On softer, more introspective tracks, like "A.D. 2000" and the single "Bag Lady," she shows amazing restraint, letting her voice travel lightly over the notes, allowing the songs' emotions to guide her performance. The high point of the disc is Badu's duet with Stephen Marley, "In Love with You," easily the sweetest, truest love song of the year. That alone is reason enough to buy the disc--and you won't regret having done so. --Courtney KempContemporary Blues CDs
