	Erykah Badu: Baduizm ---Ink Blot Magazine
		It turned out to be a genius marketing plan, as Baduizm later crashed into the chart at #2 in February 1997.
		The success of Baduizm gave her the chance to try acting, landing roles on daytime TV ("One Life To Live") and in a feature film ("Blues Brothers 2000").
		No, Baduizm is not a cult, it's more a lifestyle, where self-respect is gained not by militant, fundamentalist action, but from the subtle way we respect our peers and our minds.

		From the stunning single "on and on" to the ice-cold "certainly" to the charming "four leaf clover" this is a self-assured classic debut, comparable with soul standard classics.
		When I bought Baduizm, it was the first time I'd really ventured out of the kind of music that my friends had influenced me into listening to.
		Her voice alone is enough to soothe the soul, her songs create a feeling of total laid back relaxation.

	Baduizm live - BADU, ERYKAH - - KEDAR - -
		It had only been a short eight months since the release of her debut offering, Baduizm, a truly remarkable piece of work that put the then 26 year-old newcomer on the burgeoning Nu-Soul radar and which had everyone unanimously pinning her down as Billie Holiday’s successor.
		“Baduizm Live” bears the same hiphop-streaked, jazz-infused Neo-Classic soul traits as its studio counterpart, only the transposition into a live environment imparts to the songs na elegance and poise which, combined with their creator’s ethereal, caramel-soft, oozy vocals, all but reach perfection.
		Although there is little here to excite jaded nerves owing to the sluggish pace of most of the songs, there is an element of surprise when the singer suddenly shifts from tea-sipping Lady Day soundalike to word-spewing girl-on-the-mike on the hiphop coda of “On & on”.

	Baduizm: Reviews, Discography, Audio Clips, and more \|\|\| Music.com
		With a nimble, melodic voice owing little to RandB from the past 30 years, she phrased at odds with the beat and often took chances with her notes.
		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.
		Erykah Badu 's revolution in sound -- heavier hip-hop beats over organic, conscientious soul music -- was responsible for her breakout, but many of the songs on Baduizm don't hold up to increased examination.

	Rolling Stone : Erykah Badu: Baduizm : Music Reviews
		Baduizm's strength lies in her ability to filter jazz vocals through hip-hop without any fuss or fanfare, much as D'Angelo and Mary J. Blige have fused rap and R&B. The funky piano riff that centers "4 Leaf Clover" owes as much to Snoop Doggy Dogg's "Gz and Hustlas" as it does to Thelonious Monk.
		Baduizm was produced by, among others, newcomer Madakwu Chinwah and the Philadelphian rap instrumentalists Roots, who know something about making hip-hop with an organic feel.
		But Badu, of course, is the real focus here: Baduizm showcases the heart and soul of a bohemian B-girl who happens to have an effortless jazz swing.

		Baduizm aparecio en 1997, inagurando un nuevo subgenero musical llamado "Neo-Soul" o "Nu-Soul"; (formado por artistas como D Angelo, Jill Scott.., quienes influenciados por las grandes leyendas de las musica Soul y RandB de los 70 crean un nuevo concepto en la musica negra, fusionando esos elementos con "spoken word", jazz, hip-hop..)
		Baduizm (y no Baduzzim..) es el debut de Erykah Badu, una de las grandes divas de la musica negra, su estilo cantando es frecuentemente comparado con el de la gran Billie Holiday; voz aguda, nasal y una vocalización y pronunciación perfectas.
		Baduizm tiene un sonido muy personal, las bases no son tan pronunciadas como en el Hip-Hop, buena utilización de guitarras, y sobre todo de instrumentos de percusion, lo que da un sonido mucho más cercano al Jazz o al Soul acústico que al RandB.

		Not only did she write and produce her album, she directs her own videos, which are gems.) During a time when so much of current R&B is wallowing in a wasteland of name-dropping and label-flashing, Baduizm is such good food for the soul it'd be a crying shame to miss it.

		Sweetly cooing over Ron Carter's walking bass rhythms and the Roots' poetic wordplay, the singer echoes Lady Day--especially her phrasing and cadence...

	Erykah Badu - Pandora Internet Radio
		The grooves and production on the album are bass-heavy RandB, but Badu's langurous, occasionally tortured vocals and delicate phrasing immediately removed her from the legion of cookie-cutter female RandB singers.
		A singer/songwriter responsible for all but one of the songs on Baduizm, she found a number 12 hit with her first single "On and On," which pushed the album to number two on the charts.
		The first single, "On and On," became a number one RandB hit in early 1997, and Baduizm followed it to the top of the RandB album charts by March.

		Although everyone who has this album bought it for Baduh, I would buy it just for some of the cool beats.
		In my book, Badu was the first female singer to incorporate the jazzy, bluesy element of the old days with contemporary hip hop and R&B. Before, Lauryn Hill (solo anyways), India.Arie, Alicia Keys and Jill Scott, Erykah was holdin' it down solo on this tip.
		"Baduizm" is the album that brought the comparisons of Badu as the reincarnated version of Billie Holiday.

	Adrian's Album Reviews : Erykah Badu
		There was a long old wait for this official follow up to the mighty 'Baduizm'.
		It finally arrived, and after some confusion concerning the track-listing (two different versions were released, initially) has settled down to become the fine album and follow up that it is. It's both harder hitting and more playful than 'Baduizm' at the same time, if that makes sense.
		Overall this is a quality follow-up that consolidates rather than moves on her reputation, but long term that may prove to be a good thing.

	Salon \| Sharps and Flats: Erykah Badu
		n "Baduizm," Erykah Badu anchored her gorgeous, soulful croon with a Southern earth-mother persona that stood in stark contrast to hoochie girls like Lil' Kim and Salt-N-Pepa.
		"Baduizm," with its fat bass and slick, electronic vibe, was only a few pop steps away from Bristol bands like Massive Attack.
		It's disappointing, though, that she didn't include "Afro," a comic, freestyle blues number from "Baduizm" that just begs for live improvisation.

		BADUIZM marks the debut of a true songstress, with a voice like Billie Holiday's and a style that crosses many boundaries.
		Erykah Badu has exceptional rhythm, character and vibe, and a songwriting style that should restore some life to modern R&B. From her groundbreaking single "On & On" to freestyle skits like "Afro", Badu separates herself from other '90 vocalists with a style that is as broad as it is original.
		It's also real: On "Next Lifetime" and "Certainly", Badu demonstrates a remarkable ability to turn life's experiences into beautiful songs.

		Now, the Walrus of love he may be, but he's dated and unoriginal and will probably make whoever you're trying to lock lips with cringe.
		Baduizm is fresher and at least shows a little bit of imagination and taste.
		In fact Ms Badu is definitely the woman for the task; she's more soothing than Vick's Vapo-Rub and will keep temperatures hotter than an erupting volcano.
