Georgia Anne Muldrow – King’s Ballad

To be perfectly honest, I still don’t know exactly what to think about Georgia Anne Muldrow. She’s definitely respected by her peers, including Erykah Badu and Mos Def. She’s got a great voice, eccentric personality, seriously funky sensibilities. But over the course of her several records, there seem to be too many hit and miss moments for an artist of this caliber. Not too much of a good thing, just too much, too many songs, too many ideas, just too too much! Maybe it’s just me, but I want her artistry focused, not so all over the place all the time. This is however the nature of genius (which Muldrow might be, let’s see in another 10 years…), a focused Muldrow wouldn’t be the same artist, she’d be conventional and not nearly as interesting. So,I’ll just have to get over it, because as long as she is producing songs like this tribute to Michael Jackson, she remains one of the most talented and enigmatic performers in modern music today.
