Me'Shell NdegeOcello
Bitter

By David Dodson

When Me'Shell NdegeOcello put out her first album many were fascinated by this bald bi-sexual mother on Madonna’s label who played bass. It was our fascination that made us like her music. By her second album she gave us what the industry requires of its bald bi-sexual mothers on Madonna’s label who play bass - she put her bald bi-sexual motherliness in our faces on Madonna’s label while playing bass. We loved it; but we loved it because we understood that those things described her and that, at the core, she's a beautiful musician and eloquent songwriter.

Now, the bald bi-sexual mother on Madonna’s label who plays bass has put all of those things to the side and lets the musician and songwriter get the spotlight. And like most musicians and songwriters at some point, Me'Shell is Bitter. Oh how beautiful bitter is. This isn't necessarily a happy album, but as Me'shell reminds us on Faithful, depressing doesn’t take away from beautiful. This isn’t the same Me'Shell, this one has her own emotional struggles to deal with and isn’t afraid to share them in an honest and pure way. Although it may be hard to find a top-40 single in that, it won’t be difficult to find an empathetic/sympathetic ear. Pushing the mood is amazing string arrangements by Steve Barber which don’t overbear, but instead accentuate the beautiful compositions Me'Shell offers us. M

October 1999
