JAGUAR WRIGHT

Her CD is about 2 years old now "Denials,Delusions,& Decisions" out of the Philly neo-soul scene....Jaguar Wright also recognized for her stint in a coca cola commercial with The Roots...I believe she has one of the most slept on albums to come out as far as R&B is concerned....this woman is like a millenium version of Millie Jackson,brash,abrasive,no-hold barred,no nonsense soul sista...she also toured with Jay-Z and is featured on his unplugged performances....the Cd is a wonderful commentary of "Love,Lust,Loss,and Ghetto gangsta bi*ch" Rawness....she also did a wonderful rendition of Patti Labelle's "love and need you" you should check her out...if you already haven't.....

I'm still waiting 4 her new Raphael Saadiq-produced album to come out but she got thrown out of MCA/Geffen records and now she's on her own.

Someone said that she's in Ray's Pookie independent record label but I don't see her name anywhere that place.

In March, she signed an exclusive deal with BBE Records (Barely Breakin' Even). She was still in negotiations with Geffen to get her master recordings for the "And Your Point Is" LP for a future release, but to no avail. Last I heard, the first release on BBE is more than likely going to be a live album.

Co-sign on this. great album and a great voice. Saadiq would be the perfect producer for her. Let's hope we get this album soon.

I heard her 2'nd album.They cancelled the release
but somehow it got out on the net.
I was'nt that impressed tho'.
She's a really cool artist but the later album lacked strong material I think.
