About Meshell Ndegeocello
Meshell Ndegeocello (b. August 29, 1968) is a singer, bassist, and multi-instrumentalist. She was born Michelle Johnson to Army lieutenant (and saxophonist) father Jacques Johnson and her mother, Helen in Berlin, Germany.
Raised in Washington, D.C., Meshell Suihailia Bashir Shakur (as she became known) adopted the surname Ndegeocello, which means "free like a bird", while still in her teens. She has been hailed in the music press as a redeemer of soul music. Her music incorporates funk, soul, hip-hop, reggae, rock and jazz. She has been nominated for 9 Grammys. She has frequently toured with Lilith Fair.
Ndegeocello honed her chops on the D.C. Go go circuit in the late 1980s before venturing out as a solo artist. She emerged as a recording artist in 1993 on Maverick Records/Sire Records with her debut, Plantation Lullabies. This recording presented a distinctly androgynous persona. Her music has been featured in a number of film soundtracks including How Stella Got Her Groove Back and Batman and Robin. She has also appeared on recordings by Basement Jaxx and The Blind Boys of Alabama, among others. Her biggest hit is a duet with John Mellencamp, a cover version of Van Morrison's "Wild Night", which reached #3 on the Billboard charts.
Her singles "If That's Your Boyfriend (He Wasn't Last Night)", "Leviticus: Faggot", and her cover of Bill Withers "Who Is He and What Is He To You?" have all charted in the Billboard top 20. She sang background vocals on the song "I'd Rather be Your Lover" by Madonna, on her album "Bedtime Stories.". She also sang with Chaka Khan on the single "Never Miss the Water", as well as providing her typical solid bass skills.

There is nothing Meshell performs and it is not spectacular. Her performance and music was amazing. I traveled 790 miles, from Chicago, to see her. Unfortunately, I missed most of the performance, but the small part I did see made the trip worth it. I can't wait to travel to another city to see her next year.

Amazing concert!!! She and her band were absolutely phenomenal. The Wexner Center, however, was the wrong venue. There was no seating and it was not advertised as a standing room only. The artist didn’t even know that it was no seating. Standing for almost 2 hours was a bit much for the crowd that was there.

Meshell is one with her music. I was moved to tears as she played songs that had carried me through so many memories and hardships over these 20 years. She has brought such joy to my soul & I am grateful to have her music in my life. Thank you, Meshell.

Such an uplifting and inspiring experience. Meshell and her incredible band of poets and musicians brought something much more intimate than many may have expected. We left empowered and at peace knowing that they managed to bring us together on a spiritual level. 🙌🏾

I honestly wasn't expecting much from this show. Then she came on stage and totally deconstructed me. Destroyed me. What's strange is that I never more happy to let someone do that. I hope it's the first of many times. Thank you.
