Erykah Badu Collaborates with The Alchemist on First Album in 15 Years
The neo-soul icon is actively working on a new studio album, though it remains untitled and without a release date.
- Erykah Badu is recording her first studio album since 2010's 'New Amerykah Part Two (Return of the Ankh)'.
- The album is being produced exclusively by The Alchemist, known for his work with major hip-hop artists.
- Badu has not announced a title or release date for the project, which she says is taking up most of her time.
- She attributes the 15-year gap between albums to her focus on extensive touring as a performance artist.
- Badu is set to perform at the Dreamville Festival in April 2025, where fans hope to hear previews of her new music.
