Georgia Anne Muldrow
If you think you don't know her... you're wrong. If you keep artists like Erykah Badu and Mos Def on steady rotation, you've probably already heard her in her collaborations with them. Both on thier more recent albums. From the moment I heard Georgia's voice, I wanted to hear all of her work.
Her highly acrobatic chords and unresolved harmonic tendencies, leave you feeling alert in the way that only something unique can. It doesn't hurt that she also happens to be a highly competent musician and songwriter. I hate to make comparisons with someone who feels so original, but she's something like Chaka Khan during the Rufus years meets Dead Prez type consciousness, rolled in with some serious explorations of minor key sonics. Everything about her approach to the music makes you listen closely. Its a good thing she's really got some science to drop!
