And now, the artist has shared the second single, “Don’t You Want Me” featuring Cat Power. The songs range from 1960s folk and 70s soul, country, and pop to 80s R&B and electro-boogie, early-90s alternative rock, and early-aughts hip-hop. “This project is about classic songs that are known and loved,” Ndegeocello says. But at the core of the human condition, we are the same.”
