Erykah Badu, best known for her eccentric style and cerebral music, is a Grammy- award winning American soul singer and songwriter. Regarded as the Queen of Neo Soul, Badu's sound is a concoction of soul, hip-hop and jazz and cannot be contained to a single genre. Badu's highly acclaimed debut album Baduizm, went triple platinum in 1997 and, along with the song "On & On", won Grammy Awards in 1998. Since then, Badu has released five albums including Erykah Badu Live, Mama's Gun, Worldwide Underground, New Amerykah Part 1 (4th World War) and New Amerykah Part 2 (Return of the Ankh).
