| confident and happy to announce that I believe | | | | CD Track List Follows: |
| Erykah Badu fans, and Pop fans alike will be | | | | 1. Rimshot (Intro) |
| pleased with this one. With the release of Baduizm | | | | 2. On & On |
| Erykah Badu's artistic excellence is on full display | | | | 3. Appletree |
| as Badu has once again delivered a brilliant | | | | 4. Otherside Of The Game |
| collection of tracks that could very well be her | | | | 5. Sometimes... (Mix #9) |
| best work to date. | | | | 6. Next Lifetime |
| Baduizm opens with an outstanding track, | | | | 7. Afro (Freestyle Skit) |
| Rimshot, that I suspect will be heard on radio | | | | 8. Certainly |
| stations everywhere, and deservedly so. It's a | | | | 9. 4 Leaf Clover |

| I'm of the opinion that Baduizm is certainly Erykah | | | | Baduizm Album Notes Personnel: Erykah Badu |
| Badu's best work in a few years. A totally | | | | (vocals, keyboards, programming); Madukwu, |
| enjoyable CD and an outstanding release. What I | | | | N'Dambi (vocals); Bob Power, Tone The Backbone |
| call must have music. I give it two thumbs up | | | | (various instruments, programming); Ike Lee III |
| because it's a collection that even the casual Pop | | | | (keyboards, programming); Ron Carter (bass); |
| fan can appreciate and enjoy. | | | | John Meredith (drum programming). |
| While the entire album is really very good the | | | | Producers include: Madukwu Chinwah, Bob Power, |
| truly standout tunes are track 9 - 4 Leaf Clover, | | | | JaBorn Jamal, Ike Lee III, Erykah Badu. |
| track 10 - No Love, and track 13 - Certainly | | | | Engineers include: Michael Gilbert, Chris Trevit, Bob |
| (Flipped It). | | | | Powers. |
| My Bonus Pick, and the one that got Sore [...as in | | | | Recorded at Battery Studios, New York, New |
| "Stuck On REpeat"] is track 4 - Otherside Of The | | | | York; Dallas Sound Lab, Dallas, Texas; Sigma |
| Game. Wow! | | | | Sounds and Ivory Studios, Philadelphia, |
