Comet, Come to Me is the 11th studio album by U.S. singer Meshell Ndegeocello, released 2 June 2014,[6] on Naïve Records.[7]

Kyle Fleck of The Stranger described the album as "a lyrically haunted yet lushly produced set of alienated art pop for adults."[1] Andy Kellman of AllMusic described it as a continuation of Devil's Halo (2009) and Weather (2011), "with well-defined and uncluttered songs that have subtle and artful touches and twists."[3]
