Ann Nesby: The Lula Lee Project
From Batman’s Bruce Wayne, Superman’s Clark Kent, to Wonder Woman’s Diana Prince represent the dichotomy that lies within us all. The dichotomy of ourselves is represented in our ability to demonstrate on one hand reserve and “staying in the box,” yet when prompted the alter ego of self emerges to go beyond what is normal or expected. This yin-yang concept is personified and demonstrated by Ann Nesby’s sixth solo album aptly entitled, The Lula Lee Project.
So who exactly is “Lula Lee?” “Lula Lee is the real Ann Nesby, she is who my family and husband sees on a daily basis,” says Nesby who adds, “Lula Lee is who I am personally outside the glitz and glamour associated with my ‘Ann Nesby’ persona.”
The Lula Lee Project showcases visually and audibly a creative departure from the Ann Nesby many may recognize from her days as the former lead singer of the two-time Grammy winning and world renowned Gospel/Soul ensemble, Sounds of Blackness. Nesby’s impressive catalogue of music since her 1996 solo debut has seamlessly transitioned between Gospel, R&B/Soul, Jazz, Hip-Hop, Dance, and Pop music without compromising her Christian beliefs. She has collected scores of musical accolades and fans along the way.
Hot on the heels of her critically acclaimed 2007 album This Is Love, which spawned a Grammy nominated single (“I Apologize”), Nesby returned to the studio to craft The Lula Lee Project alongside an array of musical geniuses: Gospel music maverick Tonex (John P. Kee, Tarralyn Ramsey, Montell Jordan); Herb Middleton (SWV, Faith Evans, Mary J. Blige); J. Isaac (James Grear & Company, Juelz Santana); Debra Killings (TLC); and others.
“This album speaks to the issues affecting the state of the world, our current national recession, to the struggles of everyday life. This project is a reminder that God is still in control,” explains Nesby who admits that the world has changed dramatically since her 1996 debut.
“It’s my duty to encourage others to rely on God, we don’t have to worry because we have a refuge in Him,” she adds.
The Lula Lee Project, Nesby’s third full Gospel/Inspirational album after 2003’s Make Me Better and 2006’s In The Spirit showcases a more colorful and edgier “out of the box” approach to the Christian inspired genre; “I Found a Place,” the album’s lead single serves up a smooth head nodding bass line as Nesby soulfully croons about a special and secret place in prayer that we can escape to when the storms of life come.
Other notable tracks include, “Sad But It’s True,” a funk driven track that will become an anthem for both men and women as it showcases Nesby’s “Lula Lee” persona that bluntly ‘keeps it real,’ addressing the lack of responsibility both men and women sometime demonstrate in their relationships.
“Higher,” reflects the place that all of us have found ourselves in at some point in time when things seem wrong and you pray asking God to bring you out of the circumstance.
Taking a serene approach in rhythm & praise, Nesby’s delivery in the laid back groove of “When the Praises Go Up” and “Sow Love” demonstrate her vocal dexterity. The Lula Lee Project is a musical montage of situations everyone faces and is consistent in the theme of God’s love and devotion toward us all when we believe.
Nesby by far is a music industry mainstay with a career spanning over 20 years in music, theater, and film. With a bevy of accolades - multiple Grammy and Stellar award nominations; Ann Nesby is one of music’s elite and the singer that American Idol’s Randy Jackson called “one of the best singers in the world!”
Ann Nesby aka “Lula Lee” is the embodiment of what it is to be soulful. Listen and you will be inspired!
