An incredible track from Erykah’s 1997 Baduizm album. Otherside of the Game was written by Badu, Questlove, James Poyser and Richard Nichols. Wikipedia describes it as “effectively showcases Badu’s debt to jazz as well as soul”, which I can’t disagree with.
The track I want to look at today is Erykah Badu’s 2007 single Honey. It’s produced by 9th Wonder, who has worked with Mary J. Blige, Jay-Z, Drake, Destiny’s Child, J.
I want to look at two songs. One is the 1959 ballad Naima taken from John Coltrane’s game changer Giant Steps, and the other is Erykah Badu’s Other Side of the Game, produced by Richard Nichols and The Roots, taken from her 1997 album, Baduizm.
