Erykah Badu- Today (The Earth Song)

One of Eryka Badu's Hidden Gems. Featured on the #versuz Battle between Herself and Jill Scott. This is not available on Streaming service however you can still Buy a hard copy at https://www.amazon.com/Red-Star-Sound... On this compilation CD the stars are aplenty. With Macy Gray lacing the moody "We've Got Enough" with more urgency than she managed on The Id, Nelly Furtado's off-kilter "Legend," and Erykah Badu doing her cloying jazz routine on the somewhat precious "Today," some of the brightest lights in neo soul give it their all. Yet while this hodgepodge of remixes, album cuts, and new material might manifest the might of marquee power, it's the new jacks who come close to stealing the spotlight. Witness Jack Herrera's tangy soul stylings on the sexy "High Off You" or the creamy seduction of "Don't You Forget It" by Glenn Lewis, two more examples of the silky grooves this CD offers. --Amy Linden
