Isn't that the TRUTH! FUNK facts in de house. Just rediscovered the Queen herself Erykah and man, my loss. She is bringin' the heat on this, yeah the bass layin' it down and being a guitarist I have to love the wah work. Wish she and Sly could've done something together-THAT would've badass!

[@mooncorp212]

In my opinion (nd just take as it is), Badu, compared to some Brasilian, african, Indian or rap master singers for exemple, have ok skills in rythm. She's fine. She's incredible in harmony, and her best talent is in the vibe, the little sensible magic marrying harmony and rythm. She shines there. By listening and relistening her albums, and then seing her live, you will see she bends harmony using quarters or eigths of tones on purpose. Because magic.

Flute can be heard on a lot of funk & jazz songs from the 70s & 80s. I love it. Check out the 3 min flute solo on this funk gem from 1982 starting at 2.35 kzbin.info/www/bejne/iaWZmpmvhs99Z5Isi=T0Fx4Br6PcFVRGG8

[@deeplynluv]

I saw her do this live at Radio City Music Hall. I don't care what people say about her the woman is talented. She doesn't need a gimmick to sell CD's. Anyone in the music business knows the real money doesn't come from selling CD's anyway. It comes from touring and the people who truly rock with her like I do (I am not a FANatic for anyone) will always support.

[@marekgaramond4198]

the money does bring happiness

"She was sitting on the front pew giving deacon Johnson them a good view" - I love her sense of humor. I've always thought that her song "Tyrone" is a brilliantly constructed joke with "but you can't use my phone" as the punch line :)

[@echantelois]

Now that is a groove of a song---and so rude (sexy), as we say in the Caribbean. Rude girl, rude song--love it. Yes, Breyana Anderson--Ms. Badu is totally QUEEN.
