I definitely agree with you. Its a shame Me'Shell doesn't have a powerful agent, manager or somebody like Clive Davis, who guided Whitney Houston & Alicia Keyes' career. Because she is such an Artist of the Highest Caliber, she'll never get through & never get heard in this weak mainstream of producer controlled pop music. Record Companies & radio won't support her art & play her music. They won't even let us, the people listen & decide for ourselves.
Wow, I like it. I hadn't heard of Meshell Ndegeocello until about two days ago. I was at a classical concert, of all things, and the emcee announced that she was going to be the next performance at the venue. I couldn't even understand the name from the way he said it, so I looked it up, and here I am. I'm definitely hooked on the music, and I might even try to make the show. She's got her own sound, but she somehow reminds me of Martha Davis (from The Motels) and Sade. Not sure that makes sense, it's just a quick first impression.
I Love this song. And I love this album. Honestly, I am always amazed at her direction. A few years ago, I was telling a young bass player and his mom to check her out, and she asked, "what kind of music does she play." I was like, "Whatever she wants to play." 'Nuff said.
I hear Grace Jones,Joni Mitchell,and Dusty Springfield now that ain't a shabby trio.If we had The grand night clubs of days gone by,she'd be up there with Nina Simone,Josephine Baker,Lena,Billy,Dinnah,and Miss Peggy Lee.She's so much more than the Pop twats out there.
Meshell...please come back soon as you can with a new studio album! I don't really care what you choose to explore, as long as it's done by U I'll listen🌎🎶❤
Meshell you are a true inspiration. I find myself constantly incorportating structures of songwriting i learned from listening to your song into my own art. Thanks for all you do.
This is such a wonderful piece of music. Meshell is just overflowing with talent and makes me really, really happy when listening to her work. God, thank you Ms Ndegeocello!
Love the sonic quality. The lyrics seem a little bitter, but when someone wont listen to what is believed to be sound advice, well I suppose anger would pay the topic a visit. Ive preordered this.
I am **SO EXCITED** that this phenomenal woman will be back in Boston this summer!! I am still riding high from her performance at the 2013 Beantown Jazz Festival, and I am going to be twice *blessed* when I see her again at The Sinclair this summer! Thank you so much for maintaining such a superb quality of rich, deep, soulful and thoughtful music, Meshell, and I CANNOT WAIT to see you in Boston again! Wishing you peace, love and blessings always.
Hi swambui3! I am so sad, I wasn't able to go and see Me'Shell last night! :-( I didn't realize that I would be away on vacation with my family when this show was announced (we just got back today). I know she had to be amazing, right?! I am so disappointed that I couldn't make it, but I hope that you had a great time girl! :-D
Big props to you Meshell! Been listening to you for a minute and can't get enough. I still remember my 'go-go' days w/ Rare Essence (sigh). Anyway, look fwd to seeing you at the Birchmere soon. GreatLuck to you always!
Dang! Just returned back to the DMV from overseas and found out the Birchmere show is sold-out for the 5th of June. Oh well, snooze I lose I guess. Anyway, hope you come back to the area soon. I WILL GET MY TICKETS THEN! Again, Many Blessings to ya and love the new single//Chris L
Never felt the need to tear down others, to stand firm in the darkness of MY OWN sins out loud
I'm not choosing delusion, for memory's sake
No more sad boy, love songs
Throughout my entire life your music has nourished my soul. So grateful that you are on this planet, being the incredible human you are. Thank you!
Man! I cannot stop listening to this song...the feeling and textures are superb. Beautiful!
This song is life. A brilliant artist with unbelievable creative range.
Meshell, thank you for always giving me something to look forward to!
very under-appreciated artist. she's the female equivalent of prince, in my humble (very humble) opinion. people be sleeping.

loving the heck out of this.............
wow heard this on mary jane love how light and crisp the music is with very good lyrics
Love all you do!! Come to Houston, Texas soon
What a cool surprise to wake up to! I am really loving this song! Thank you!
It's like she's in a room jamming with Prince and Keith Richards ... love this woman

Que c'est beau ♥♥♥
Entièrement d'accord avec vous. Chanson splendide découverte lors de sa sortie sur la radio belge rock Classic 21. Toujours un bonheur de l'écouter👍
What a great song to introduce us to this new gem!
Am I feeling the genius of Doyle Bramhall behind it?
Anyway, well done guys!
Cheers! From Montreal.
glad to know she is still around
Powerful 🌱
Had to make a quick trip to CVS tonight & Garth Trinidad played this on the way. Already a fan, but really dig this song! Keep up the good work!
Phew, this rocks! Just discovered Meshell listening to Cerrys Matthews on the BBC World Service.
It was great yesterday in Amsterdam
I love the song and I can't wait for the album. Ive followed her music since Plantation Lullabies. An artist of the highest caliber.
Yep! Been following her since Plantation Lullabies myself.
Hottest track
Big love from Canada's arctic... keepin' us warm Meshell!
Meshell...please come back soon as you can with a new studio album! I don't really care what you choose to explore, as long as it's done by U I'll listen🌎🎶❤
You are THE SPIRITUAL GOD!!!!!!
I cannot find this song on any streaming platform
Prince could only be so lucky to have the wisdom and articulation of me'shell!!!
Hi. What are you saying? I'm not sure if you're complimenting Me'Shell or dissing Prince? Btw, I love both of them. They're both musical geniuses.
Wonderful heard this on Fip Radio (France)
Meshell you are a true inspiration. I find myself constantly incorportating structures of songwriting i learned from listening to your song into my own art. Thanks for all you do.
