Mama's Gun

0 upcoming performances in New York

Released in 2000, *Mama’s Gun* marked Erykah Badu’s move toward a more band-centered neo-soul sound, shaped in part by sessions at Electric Lady Studios in New York City alongside the Soulquarians circle. The songs track love, self-worth, and the daily politics of dignity, with Badu writing from a position that is personal and social at once. At Kings Theatre in Brooklyn, she performs the album under the Hip-Hop/R&B banner. Its enduring significance lies in how it treats intimacy as a form of civic testimony.
