Blerd Appreciation: Meshell Ndegeocello
If anyone was to ask me who the most underrated artist of the past twenty years, there would be absolutely no hesitation in my response Meshell Ndegeocello. Since her debut in 1993, the singer, composer, bandleader and multi-instrumentalist has been blowing me away.
