A Grammy-nominated work that tackles a variety of issues.
The second album released in 2000. It contains 14 songs in total, including "Bag Lady," which reached number 10 on the Billboard singles chart, and "Didn't Cha Know?", which was nominated for a Grammy Award for Best R&B Song.
Called Neo Soul, her work sings about her extremely deep inner self and the absurdity of the world. This work deals with anxiety, human relationships, and social issues. Incidentally, the name of the British band "Mamas Gun," which debuted in 2009, is derived from the title of this work.
