Biography
N'dambi is the ninth of eleven children born to a Baptist minister and missionary. Her family is from Memphis, Tennessee, but she and her siblings were reared in Dallas. Her father was both a minister and singer in an quartet group, which led to N'dambi becoming enamored with singing. She got her professional start singing with Gaye Arbuckle, a local gospel singer. She toured with her from age 18 to 20. Shortly thereafter she sang as background singer and collaborated with fellow Texan Erykah Badu.
N'dambi delivered her debut solo CD Little Lost Girl Blues in 1999. Since then she has released the two-disc set Tunin' Up & Cosignin', which focused more on a live and jazzy sound and contains new versions of several songs from her debut. After this, in 2005, she released A Weird Kind Of Wonderful, which contained funkier and more rock-influenced tracks. It was released in Japan only, which made it a very sought-after collector's item on ebay. These projects were released independently by N'dambi. Around 2005, she has collaborated with R&B singer Kiete Young Her debut album for the Stax label is called Pink Elephant and was released in 2009.
