Erykah Badu knows talent when she hears it. A formidable artist in her own right, Ms. Badu had nothing but loving words for fellow singer Bilal, who droped his long-awaited sophomore album Airtight’s Revenge today (September 14) on Plug Research. Badu reveals how Common introduced her to Bilal’s music, and how she thought he was a female due to his falsetto. According to the Fat Belly Mama, Bilal has one of the greatest voices in music today.
“I’ve never heard another voice in that way,” she remarked. “And soon the whole world will know about it…The voice is just so moving to me.”
The whole album is available for streaming preview at AOL Spinner at this link. Also, check out Bilal’s interview with Beats, Boxing and Mayhem.
