Day 50: Black Music Month - Meshell Ndegeocello
When I saw the words "Alternative Hip Hop" emblazoned in the liner notes
of Meshell Ndegeocello's debut album Plantation Lullabies (1993), I
thought--how limiting. She's definitely not an artist you can lump a
single category. After all, her last
name in Swahili means "free like a bird." She can play/sing anything.
Her music is passionate yet cerebral. And when it comes to funky bass
players she's one of the baddest in the game! Happy Black Music
Month!!! :D
