N’Dambi
would soon become her adopted stage name, which means “most
beautiful”. The two artists became close friends and began performing
together at hip-hop nights, organized by N’Dambi’s cousin from the art
gallery, onasale. Erykah Badu would later attract the attention from
the Universal Records executives, and this took the career of both
world-wide. Badu would release albums and N’Dambi would be backing
vocalist on tour with her, along with Vivian Green and Yahzarah, and
many others. She would appear on the David Latterman show, and other
shows. ‘Baduizm’ would be the true show case of both talents, where
N’Dambi would be backing vocalist, with Karen Bernod and Yahzarah. The
three + Ebi and her tight band, however, when N’Dambi released her
debut album for her solo career she would no longer at her shows
say “I am the backing vocalist of Erykah Badu”, why would she? She has
the vocal talent that is of high levels and skills…so her audiences
would only await her presence on stage. N’Dambi’s future career was
looking bright, she would (up to now) release ‘Tunin Up & Co-Signing’
and her anticipated third album that is still due for release. N’Dambi
has her own company called Cheeky-I Productions, and is in complete
creative control. While being back up vocalist for Ebi, she probably
felt a sense of with draw, because there was so much to come out of
N’Dambis soul, now, she is able to do this, and what a beautiful soul
she has.
