this album (1998) is rightly named "Newpower Soul" (2 words),

"New Power Soul" (3 words) is the title of an instrumental track on the "Exodus" album (1995).

Newpower Soul
2 the darkness — let there be light
2 the soundman — turn up my voice real tight
2 the N.P.G. — if U in this mother, scream
Show me how U all get down — 1 2 3, come on

Get freaky, let the head bob {x2}
We should all come 2gether 2 the Newpower Soul
Get freaky, let the head bob {x2} (Come on, come on)
It'll make U feel much better — come on, baby, let's go!

Every while in a great once there comes 2 town a show
That lives up 2 all your funkspectation no matter how high or low
A reason 2 get your freak on in a way U never freaked before
Newpower Soul lay claim 2 the booty — come on, let's go

(Lemme see U get down)
Let the head bob
Get freaky, let the head bob (Come on, come on)
We should all come 2gether 2 the Newpower Soul
(Lemme see U get down)
Let the head bob
Get freaky, let the head bob {x2} (Come on, come on)
It'll make U feel much better — come on, baby, let's go!

Every while in a day twice funky matters in our ear
As long as we keep our love strong, we'll never shed no tears
The brothas be threatenin' 2 jump off buildings, Newpower's what they fear
Love 4 one another risin', Newpower Soul is here

(Lemme see U get down)
Let the head bob
Get freaky, let the head bob (Come on)
We should all come 2gether 2 the Newpower Soul (Come 2gether)
(Lemme see U get down)
Let the head bob
Get freaky, let the head bob (Come on, come on)
It'll make U feel much better (feel better) — come on, baby, let's go!
Newpower Soul

(We should all) {repeat sample}
Gemini rising on the 7th day
Makin' MAD SEX, UNTIL U'RE IN MY ARMS, OK?
Cuz WHEN U LOVE SOMEBODY like that, it's cool
U gots no need 4 the SHOO-BED-OOH-bed-ooh
THE GOOD LIFE, yeah, we'll be livin'
PUSHIN' UP on every FREAK THIS SIDE of heaven
COME ON, come on, shake it, come on
U know I be's THE ONE with the FUNKY MUSIC, hon'

Phat claims 2 the Newpower booty

Every while in the day 3 times my brother hit me on the one (Get freaky)
Abuse like that'll either make U funky or make U wanna buy a gun (We, we should all)
I'd much rather get my freak on and make U if I can
Newpower Soul lay claim 2 the booty — come on girl, let's jam!

Get freaky, let your head bob (Get freaky, let your head bob)
We should all come 2gether 2 the Newpower Soul (Come 2gether)
Come on, get your freak on

1998

With her newfound freedom from a major record label, Chaka Khan again joins forces with Prince to produce Come 2 My House, released on Khan’s own label, Earthsong Records and distributed by Prince’s NPG label. The album receives rave reviews and Chaka embarks on a very successful, nationwide tour with Prince and Larry Graham. Pictured: Mayte, Prince, Larry Graham and Chaka.

I have always liked this album. Saw him live at the Aragon Ballroom in Chicago with Chaka and Larry Graham supporting this and it was a killer show.

"New Power SoOUUUuL"

Love the harmony on this album, and the more low key bassy songs. Pure funk and sex. The word play/lyrics add lots of character to the album (which you know it should be full of when you look at the album cover). And those horns were horny.

Musically stale era, add to that Chaka screaming her arse off and Larry being introduced at every opportunity and it all turns a bit bendy.

Thumbs down.

She was pregnant in '96, then the death of the child. Dancing was probably low on her list.

WEB: love4oneanother.com

James Cook
Published on August 06, 1997
http://www.love4oneanother.com

Love4oneanother.com represents another of The Artist's efforts to transcend stardom in favor of becoming a movement. The intent of the site is to promote Love 4 One Another, a charity established by The Artist to advance "the beginning of a webwide effort 2 change the vibration of the world..." Changing the vibration of the world includes founding a hospital and a school with proceeds from sales of Emancipation and concerts that took place between late 1996 and early 1997. It also seems 2 involve nothing less than an open rebellion against standard lettering and spelling.

In the spirit of emancipation and independence, a free copy of the acoustic album The Truth "will b given 2 all who help conduct the New Power Generation's 'Xperiment in Truth.'" Visitors can also sample tracks from the forthcoming Crystal Ball CD. I was particularly impressed by the track titled "Calhoun Square," a funk tune that rivals the old-school days of the Revolution and creations like "She's Always In My Hair."

Ultimately, love4oneanother.com sheds dim light on the mysterious nature of an artist--make that The Artist--who here has transmuted the art of groove into the art of giving. While the motive behind Love 4 One Another is ostensibly altruistic, the complete rationale remains unclear. Then again, spreading random acts of kindness makes about as much sense as changing one's name to a symbol. (James Cook)

THE ONE

If U're lookin' 4 the man that will walk away from responsibility
I ain't the one {x3}
And if U're lookin' 4 the brotha that'll treat U like anything but a
queen
I ain't the one

But if U're lookin' 4 a man that'll sweep U off your tired weary feet
Pay your bills, buy U pretty dresses
And take U anywhere U wanna eat
Make love 2 U every night of the week
Oh, don't think it over, girl
Look no further
I am the one
Oh yes I am

If U're lookin' 4 a man that'll make big money
And keep it all 2 himself
I ain't the one
No, no - not me
And if U're lookin' 4 a man that'll have 10 women
And confuse it all with his wealth
Listen here, I ain't that one
No, no no - wait a minute

If U're lookin' 4 a man who can share his dinero (His money)
Buy U half the town (Half the town)
Treat every step U take (Every step)
As if U're walkin', huh, on holy ground (Holy ground)
Place U, place U above all others
When it comes, when it comes 2 the gettin' on down (Down)
Look no further, ooh
Your man's around (He's around)
Oh yes he is

He's standing right here, right here (Right here, right here)
Don't U look no further, girl
He's standing right here, right here

(I am the one) {x2}

If U're lookin' 4 a man that'll make U feel like time has just begun,
ooh
A man that'll make U feel like U're the only thing that ever
mattered
Underneath the sun, underneath the sun, ooh
If U're lookin' 4 somebody
Who will turn your bad day into one long night of fun
Look no further, baby
I'm… I'm the one

Oh yes I am
I am the one
Don't U look no further, girl
Oh, I am the one
Oh yes, oh yes, oh yes, oh
My, my, my little Mayte
