Opis wydawcy:
Limitowana reedycja najsłynniejszej płyty Erykah Badu. Double audiophile vinyl.
Po trzyletniej przerwie odezwała się! Jedna z najważniejszych obecnie wokalistek soul, laureatka wielu nagród (między innymi dwóch Grammy Awards, czterech Soul Train Music Awards, trzech Soul Train Lady of Soul Awards, American Music Awards), Erykah Badu nagrała nowy album MamaŇs Gun. Kluczem do tej płyty są wspomnienia z dzieciństwa. Przenośnia zawarta tytule - 'broń Wielkiej Mamy' ma za zadanie chronić nas od papki, którą jesteśmy karmieni przez tanią rozrywkę. Na płycie pojawiają się gościnnie: Steven Marley i Bilal (także współproducent). Singiel Bag Lady, promujący płytę już zagościł na antenach radiowych.
