The next chapter of Ladies of Soul is here! Volume One celebrated greats of the 1970s and 80s. Now, Volume 2 explores three artists from the 1990s and 2000s – Jill Scott, Erykah Badu, and Angie Stone. These powerful women pushed the boundaries of genre, incorporating hip-hop, rock, and pop elements into R&B traditions. Their explorations gave rise to neo-soul, and these three became household names!
