Released in 2003, Worldwide Underground sees Erykah Badu lean deeper into her experimental, free-flowing musical instincts. More groove-oriented and jam-based than her previous albums, this project feels like a soulful, psychedelic live session with extended instrumentals, lush layers, and a hypnotic funk. Blurring the lines between hip-hop, soul, jazz, and electronica, Badu embraces spontaneity—offering looser song structures and entrancing rhythms. Collaborations with artists like Queen Latifah, Bahamadia, and Angie Stone make this record a celebration of collective creativity, while still highlighting Badu’s unique artistic vision. Worldwide Underground isn’t just an album—it’s a vibe.
