    • “Meshell Ndegeocello likes all kinds of grooves: easy jazz vamps, thumb-popping funk, chunky hip-hop, slow-motion reggae. And she doesn’t like to keep them apart.”
    —The New York Times

    A vocalist–bass guitarist double threat, Meshell Ndegeocello is renowned for the breadth of her musical palette—as heard on CDs like last year’s largely instrumental Spirit Music Jamia: Dance of the Infidel and 1999’s “modern masterpiece” (Billboard) Bitter, of which Newsweek proclaimed: “Great music makes critics whip out the clichés. Mesmerizing. Raw. Haunting. Album of the year. These jazz-tinged R&B tales of love and betrayal are so good, we’ll let the clichés do the talking.” Read Program Notes
