Erykah Badu is as formidable a talent as any with a career spanning several successful decades so its best to tread lightly when attempting to rework the legend’s material. Unless of course you’re a cocksure production duo willing to take on one of her biggest hits to date, spinning it into a contemporary thrill.
London’s Nova Black, honoring the 20 years that have passed since the release of Ms. Badu’s debut, have done just that with their subtly smooth update of her forever classic “On And On.” Refitting the neo-soul groover with a heavy dose of nu disco rhythms and deep house flair while maintaining the vocal integrity of the original, the beatsmiths have come away with a rather worthy compliment.
