Baduizm [VINYL]

Product Information

Baduizm's artwork is minimal, but it really comes to life and brings forth small details I'd never noticed before. We pay close attention to details such as the texture of the jacket and the atmosphere of the record, and even the grooves on the record are individually carved by hand. You can change your choices at any time by visiting Cookie preferences, as described in the Cookie notice.

Records that aren't in picture sleeves will either be in a company sleeve or a generic plain sleeve.To calculate the overall star rating and percentage breakdown by star, we don’t use a simple average. Though many fans would dislike (and probably misinterpret) the comparison, she's closer to Diana Ross playing Billie Holiday -- as she did in the 1972 film Lady Sings the Blues -- than Holiday herself.

Baduizm's success earned Erykah Badu popularity at the time and helped establish her as one of the emerging neo soul genre's leading artists.Recording sessions for the album took place from January to October 1996 in New York City, Philadelphia, and Dallas. Like many in the contemporary rap world, though, she also had considerable talents at taking on different personas; "Otherside of the Game" is a poetic lament from a soon-to-be single mother who just can't forget the father of her child. I have all of Erykah Badu's CDs and always wanted to listen to Baduizm on vinyl, because the fantastic bass usually comes across better on vinyl. This version can be distinguished from the 1998 reissued version by the copyright date, which is for 1997 on this version, whereas on the other version, it is for 1998.
