Afi Soul Celebrates 20 Years of Neo-Soul & Her Album "Lovely" Reloaded!
“Afi Soul” Lydia is the critically acclaimed R&B/Soul singer whose 2007 self-distributed album, Lovely, landed the No. 10 spot on the SoulTracks Top 10 CDs list, putting her in a class with Erykah Badu, Angela Johnson, Algebra and Raheem DeVaughn. Many consider her supportive anthem for the ‘brothas’ -- “Baby, It’s Cold Outside” -- Afi’s signature tune. Renewed interest in Afi Soul‘s debut prompted a 2010 re-release, led by “Sorry (Gotta Go),” a no nonsense hit that asserts a woman’s independence. Critics agreed that Lovely is a great debut album and praised Afi’s vocal and songwriting talents. Afi's passion for music invites the listener to a fun-filled experience, displaying a versatile singing style absent from many contemporary neo-soul projects.
