AMERYKAH FINALLY

It’s release has been delayed more times than your average suburban train, but Erykah Badu’s new album ‘New Amerykah Part II’ is finally due for release in two weeks time. The singer also took the opportunity to reveal the album’s cover image over the weekend, saying that the suit of armour she’s depicted as wearing represents “the tough exterior she developed to protect herself from the harsh realities of life. The armor is her old shell and now she’s liberating herself from it by climbing out of her own head so that she can be reborn.” Blimey.

 Australia's first stop for pop!
