New Amerykah Part 2: Return Of The Ankh

Universal Motown records multi-platinum-selling, grammy-winning singer-songwriter-actress Erykah Badu releases her fifth studio album, New Amerykah Part Two (Return of the Ankh). The new album is the singer's hotly anticipated follow-up to her critically acclaimed 2008 album, New Amerykah, Part One: 4th World War.

In contrast to New Amerykah, Part One: 4th World War, which was digitally produced and political in tone, New Amerykah Part 2: Return of the Ankh features lush live instrumentation and taps into Badu's emotional side by thematically focusing on romance and relationships. It features contributions from some of the most talented, groundbreaking, underground producers and engineers in the hip-hop game, including grammy winners 9th Wonder and James Poyser, eclectic soul singer Bilal, and the late J Dilla.
