Laila's Wisdom

Laila's Wisdom is the second studio album by American rapper Rapsody, released on September 22, 2017, by Jamla Records[1] and Roc Nation.

[5] Rapsody has previously collaborated with several of the guests on the record, including Kendrick Lamar, who she collaborated with on the track "Complexion (A Zulu Love)" from Lamar's 2015 album To Pimp a Butterfly,[1] which is credited with gaining Rapsody wider attention than she had had previously.

"[11] Jesse Fairfax of HipHopDX found that "Rapsody evolves on this latest album—increasingly comfortable revealing a wide range of personal facets while developing into an apt storyteller.

"[12] Writing for XXL, Peter A. Berry described the album as "a smooth, cohesive and powerfully insightful effort.

There's a finer, detail-filled shape to it, from the 'Young, Gifted, and Black' (Aretha)-sampling title track to 'Jesus Coming,' an astonishing finale in which Evans relates the aftermath of a playground tragedy from multiple perspectives.
