Abia, a singer/songwriter who made her impressive debut with "Life As A Ballad" featuring her cousin Robert Glasper, has completed her third album following "BOTTLES" released in 2015. The album features songs related to Nina Simone, a pioneering female singer/songwriter/pianist whose soulful and spiritual voice has been revered throughout the ages, and is an album that offers graceful and exquisite adult soul music. The album includes "Black Is The Color of My True Love's Hair" (covered by Lauryn Hill), "See-Line Woman," a folk song from the American South, "My Man's Gone Now," a compassionate blues song, and a duet with an acoustic guitar. Don't Smoke In Bed" is a ballad from Nina Simone's classic album "Little Girl Blue. The last song is "I'm Just Like You," an original composition inspired by Nina. This is a masterpiece of beautifully sung popular songs.
