On February 26th, Erykah Badu released New Amerykah Part 1, 4th World War which sold 124,000 copies during its first week of release. Erykah Badu is already making plans for New Amerykah Part 2, Return of the Ankh and a third album.
“I wanted to give away my materials,” Badu tells Wired magazine. “It’s about sharing, and that’s why I like this system.” Return of the Ankh is due out in July and is expected to be accompanied by USB sticks which Badu says include extras ranging from footage of concerts, to commentary on the recording process and “me in a bathtub with Flavor Flav.”
Erykah also hinted at the fall release of a “period piece” tentatively titled Lowdown Loretta Brown. While she has used the alias Loretta Brown during her live performances, she was rather tight-lipped about how it would be used for a full-length release saying, “I don’t want to introduce too much of that right now. I don’t want Gwen Stefani stealing my shit.”

Mmm Gwen Stefani stealing music, that's the first time I've heard of this, but hey you never know. In any case, Music2Nite is really looking forward to the release of these albums and USB sticks!
