So the fine folks at Frolab captured a gang of dope photos at the release party of Erykah Badu's new joint New Amerykah Part Two: Return of the Ankh.
The release comes in the wake of her controversial impromptu one-take video for New Ameryka 2's lead single, the ?uesto-produced Window Seat last weekend. Hopefully all that rumbling led to some records being purchased. anyways, to read a nice summary of the release party, click here. as for the new record, you can buy it here

First, that image is astounding. I'd love to see it full-size.
Secondly, I find I really like the Sleeveface thing going on. It's really meta that it's not only her likeness, but it was created by her as well.
yep! did you catch the Deepspace 5 video where they get their sleeveface on?

I actually didn't know about sleeveface until I tried to find a link for that comment.
Thanks for sharing what you learned!
