India.Arie

With the runaway success of her 2001 debut ACOUSTIC SOUL, India Arie became one of the most important figures in contemporary R&B. Though she's often lumped in with the neo-soul movement, she comes more from a '70s singer-songwriter orientation, influenced by James Taylor and Bill Withers as much as she is by Stevie Wonder and Marvin Gaye. Her stripped-down production and straight-ahead songs, built around her own acoustic guitar, eschew cookie-cutter R&B production for a refreshing simplicity.
