Erykah Badu. How awesome is her last album?

Very.

It's thoroughly steeped in 70's funk and soul (Parliament Funkadelic'in good) but still contemporary sounding. The production on it is amazing...if it wasn't so good to turn up loud as we cook and cruise around the house, it'd be a headphone album - but it's a hard one to sit still for.

New Amerykah, Pt. I ~ highly recommended
