The record that opened the door for neo-soul, subterranean bass whomp under Badu's smoky, double-reed voice. "On & On" walks a hypnotic bassline through cryptic lyrics with the calm of someone inventing a genre in real time. "Next Lifetime" aches across warm, pillowy production about right person, wrong time. "Otherside of the Game" was recut with The Roots in Philly after Badu soured on the first sessions, and their loose, organic feel set the whole album's pulse. Cool, deep, unhurried. Pour something and settle in.
