They Say I’m Different

Released

The second studio LP by this under-sung pioneer of Black Power femininity, sexuality, and raucous funk, They Say I’m Different finds Betty Davis in full creative control for the first time in her career. She not only continues to be the primary songwriter but now she’s taken over production duties and assembled her own band of players, eschewing the label-assigned collaborators from her self-titled debut a year earlier. They Say I’m Different couldn’t have been a more appropriate title.
