Who is Adriana Evans? Her self titled debut from the spring of 1997, alongside Erykah Badu's, "Baduizm" helped usher in what would later be dubbed the "Neo- Soul" movement. Praised by the most discerning critics, it sold 75,000+ units even with poor promotion and distribution.No longer signed to a label, her second album, Nomadic was previously only available at shows or on her website. It is a departure from her first album in that it draws its inspiration from many genres of music including samba, reggae, rock, hip-hop and jazz but all very soulfully composed - an extremely unique sound that defies description and can only be truly understood when you give it a listen.
Fast forward to the present and Animatedcartunes is proud to announce Nomadic will now be available to all retail and the CD enhanced with a music video for the song, "7 Days." Adriana is a pioneering force of the neo-soul movement, still alive and kicking with a hungry fan base starving for music rich in substance.
I've been bangin Nomadic for years and I'm glad to see that it's finally getting an official release. I've always loved 7 Days and it's interpolation of Willie Bobo's Fried Neckbones and Some Homefries. You can purcahse it HERE
