New Amerykah Part One (4th World War) is the fourth studio album by American recording artist Erykah Badu, released on February 26, 2008, by Universal Motown. It follows her 2003 album Worldwide Underground and a hiatus from recording music. Communicating with several hip hop producers over the Internet, Badu conceived the album through the GarageBand software program on her laptop, which led to the album's primary recording sessions at Electric Lady Studios in New York City.
New Amerykah Part One is an esoteric concept album. It features social commentary and themes related to the African-American community, including poverty, urban violence, complacency, and cultural identity. The album's densely produced music incorporates funk, soul, hip hop, and electronic styles.
New Amerykah Part One debuted at number two on the Billboard 200 and sold 123,884 copies in its first week. By December 2009, the album had sold 359,000 copies in the United States. It received widespread acclaim from music critics, many of whom named it one of the year's best albums. Badu supported the album with The Vortex World Tour during May to July 2008.
