Zingalamaduni

1994 studio album by Arrested Development


Zingalamaduni is the second album by American hip hop group Arrested Development, released on June 14, 1994 by Chrysalis Records. The album's title is Swahili for "the beehive of culture."[10] Despite spawning three singles ("United Front", "Africa's Inside Me" and "Ease My Mind", the latter being the highest-charting single released from the album), it was considered a commercial disappointment compared to their previous album 3 Years, 5 Months and 2 Days in the Life Of..., peaking at number 55 on the Billboard 200 chart[11] and at number 20 on the Top R&B/Hip-Hop Albums chart.[12]
