I love how the video is simple. No sluttiness, no flashy cars, no booze, no raining money, and no huge mansions. The video is all about her inner beauty and her emotions.
@DeadlyMixKrew I said that he looks like the Grinch years ago... lol didn't think anyone else seen it. She also FINE!!! I think she is one of the most beatiful women I've seen!!!
@wannaknowbad lol. I didn't mean anything derogatory by it. Just call 'em like I see it. I just hope this doesn't mean I got a thing for Grinches. That'd be an odd fetish. lol
she wat we picture ass a strong black women and she thick...that dont have nothing to do with nothing i had to say it.....world power fuck that black and white shit
I feel so beautiful every time I hear this song I remember watching this video when I was a kid and wanting to wrap my hair like Erykah. and yes I stole a table cloth from my mother to do it! Me and my bestfriend would wrap our hair, smooth on body butter, put on silver bangles, white tank tops and jeans and we knew we were little Queens LOL.
yall make me feel old talkin about " i was two or three or fetus when this song came out" But it took me alot of years to understand the meaning. its for the gods and the earths
True power lies in absolute knowledge of self, I would greatly appreciate if you would take a few moments of your time to listen to some of my work and share some of your views with me. Im a 17 year old male who played football for the Jamaica u 17 national team and has traveled Europe to play as well. Music is my passion and i believe it will help me change the world dream big.
I remember this song so well. In fact, this is one of the '90s songs I remember the most. When I was about five or six, my mom would sometimes play this song in that worn-down ford tempo she used to drive; it was an '88 model. Man, she put a lot of work into keeping that thing up and it still got totaled in the end.
this song actually means alot! i remember singing the words and not knowing whats she talking about but the lyrics are very intelligent! I'll love erykah badu forever!
We're an independent label trying to make it in this game and the best way to do that is by being more known on youtube.One of the ways we stand out is we help unsigned artists get more fans by uploading their songs for a new fan base

@4113randy I dont know your age. But this women has GREAT TALENT!!!!. The music they are putting out now days is really confusing real talent. The 80's & 90's was nothing but real talent. If you don't like her u are missing out on real music. You have to listen to music with your mind, heart & soul. To know real music. :)
