| PLEASE CLICK HERE TO ORDER THE NEW ALBUM! Welcome to the official MySpace for Meshell Ndegeocello! While this profile is not managed by Meshell herself, it can hopefully be a way to connect with other admirers, keep up to date on upcoming performances, and be a part of an online network of information. Please feel free to share your thoughts on her music and message. Click here for more info on the new album. No one's striving to be Miles Davis. I have been blessed to know and feel love both earthly and spiritual and I hope I am to become better with the responsibility of loving another. I have fallen short so often in my friendships, relationships and family. And while the world spins around and stars are born and die the oceans flow and the sun rises and sets now I'm clear about what it is I'm striving for. ~ Meshell Ndegeocello, September 2003 The photographs from 1988 listed here were taken by Thomas Sayers Ellis . |
