Acoustic Soul is the 2001 debut album by India.Arie originally issued on Motown. Upon release the album had a Billboard Top 200 debut at number 10. Within its first year the album sold 5 million copies worldwide and has gone on to sell millions and millions more. Produced by India.Arie, Mark Batson, Blue Miller, Carlos "6 july" Briady, and Bob Power, it was mostly recorded at Electric Ladyland Studios.

When India name checks artists no longer with us that she claims as influences — Ma Rainey, Miles Davis, Karen Carpenter, Charley Patton, Stevie Ray Vaughan, Donny Hathaway, Minnie Riperton and others — you can't help but to embrace this spiritual, coming of age masterpiece.

Acoustic Soul delivers itself like a prayer. Lyrically, it makes a religion of blackness, a shrine to black femininity
-NME
Despite the uniqueness of being a guitar-based R&B album, it is Arie's thick, sandy voice that shares star billing with her exceptional lyrics.
-John Duffy, AllMusic, 4.5/5
