Like her debut album the sonic textures of the album are varied, where the past and present come together to create a mind-blowing future for pop and soul music. From wondrous strings reminiscent of Curtis Mayfield, Hendrixian guitar solo's soar, Prince like synthesizers and Outkast like raps float over punk rock riffs. The Electric Lady features a truly amazing list of collaborators - from her lifetime hero, the legendary Prince who contributed in countless ways, musically, vocally and spiritually, the soul star Miguel provided the lush ballad 'Primetime'. Other collaborations include Solange and the Grammy award winning Jazz artist, Esperanza Spalding and last but not least Erykah Badu who used her poise and grace to turn the first single Q.U.E.E.N into a female empowerment anthem.
