    Pros: you can't help but to sing along with "Tough" with a capital T Erikah Badu

    Cons: her voice is so soulful and great, but there's a few notes that's "too" much. As in you have to turn down the volume on some parts of the songs.

    Erikah Badu shines with "Tyrone" and exercises her soulfull voice with "Next Lifetime." She's her toughest critic ("Now keep in mind that I'm an artist..and I'm sensitive about my %^&*!!!) She's a "yeye&q...uot; means mother and in this album, she was in everyway a woman and a mother. You'll definitely love this album if you like to get into the groove and a little bit of serenity.

Pro Reviews: Live

  • All Music Guide

    Conventional wisdom dictates that an artist should not release a live album as their second record, especially if it follows the debut by a matter of months. However, Erykah Badu is not a conventional artist and Live is not a conventional live album. While her debut, Baduizm, earned strong reviews and healthy sales, her concerts became equally popular and she became known as a powerhouse live performer. Live solidifies that reputation, delivering soulful, gritty versions of cuts from Baduizm, a few covers, and the spectacular new single, "Tyrone." Not only does it illustrate the depths of Badu's talents, but Live is as strong and captivating as Baduizm.

Biography

Erykah Badu

She grew up listening to '70s soul and '80s hip-hop, but Erykah Badu drew more comparisons to Billie Holiday upon her breakout in 1997, after the release of her first album, Baduizm. The grooves and production on the album are bass-heavy RB, but Badu's langurous, occasionally tortured vocals and delicate phrasing immediately removed her from the legion of cookie-cutter ... Read more
