(?)

The exceptionally talented Pop artist Erykah Badu has released her CD entitled Baduizm. I am very confident and happy to announce that I believe Erykah Badu fans, and Pop fans alike will be pleased with this one. With the release of Baduizm Erykah Badu’s artistic excellence is on full display as Badu has once again delivered a brilliant collection of tracks that could very well be her best work to date.

Baduizm opens with an outstanding track, Rimshot, that I suspect will be heard on radio stations everywhere, and deservedly so. It’s a really nice track.

Erykah Badu is one of those musicians that has the ability to just win you over with her talent. The kind of artist it’s really a treat to be able to listen to.

I’m of the opinion that Baduizm is certainly Erykah Badu’s best work in a few years. A totally enjoyable CD and an outstanding release. What I call must have music. I give it two thumbs up because it’s a collection that even the casual Pop fan can appreciate and enjoy.

While the entire album is really very good the truly standout tunes are track 9 - 4 Leaf Clover, track 10 - No Love, and track 13 - Certainly (Flipped It).

My Bonus Pick, and the one that got Sore [...as in "Stuck On REpeat"] is track 4 - Otherside Of The Game. Wow!
