Singer, songwriter, and Foreign Exchange member Carmen Rodgers crafted one of the greatest modern Soul – R&B albums of the past 20 years. In fact, her debut release “Free” is celebrating its 20th in 2024 and to commemorate this masterpiece , Wonderwax honcho DJ Spinna sought out the songstress to embark on a mission to reissue it for the first time on vinyl from the original master tapes! Spinna claims that this release is one of his favorites of all time and it deserves vinyl treatment, which brings us to this press release.

From start to finish “Free” is a ride through varied emotions of life, love, heartbreak, optimism and joy, performed by Carmen’s sultry and heavenly voice that immediately pulls on your heartstrings. This is a Neo-Soul classic that sends a direct nod to the likes of Erykah Badu, N’Dambi, D’Angelo and Lalah Hathaway. Listen without interruption for the full effect!
