There is nothing more attractive to me than a soulful woman who can sing.

Damn she is amazing.

[Omni999]

She turned it into a SOUL session! Go Erykah! it just goes On and On!

[82playboi]

I love Erica Badu!

[AfreeQueen]

[taraty101]

[yasetshego]

U neva knew how the cards may lay...

[kirtrevans]

shes like my soulmate women are too afraid to be like her. I love it when black women are not afraid.

[hardnphirm87]

Preach preacher......

[musiqtrick]

whose the original singer of this song?

[HERBLANDZ]

@musiqtrick she is

[ccarter39]

@musiqtrick Lena Horne - Believe in Yourself, from the Wiz

[EarlGenius]

the truth, the light, she just......IS. If i were to ever follow man, she would be my leader.......EarlGenius~

[937dboy]

WHY IS SHE ALLWAYS FUNKY AND FRESH??

[nickelwindow53]

love the song, but what is the central meaning of the song someone please tell me?

[mizkity03]

@nickelwindow53 I think the song is pretty self explanatory and straightforward. but I believe it is about believing in yourself and not giving up no matter what happens, faith, self love, confidence. All of that :)

[nickelwindow53]

@mizkity03 thank you so much! I love the song so much more now. tryna really understand what she is saying in the lyrics

[TrueMissRobinson]

go e!

[Isignedup4this]

This is the best, I adore when she does the Chaka thing! Best of both worlds!

[aharper12]

Chapelle was a genius to bring all of those talents together on 1 stage!!!

[WesleySniperS1]

@Garfunkelable you dirty cunt, the only baboon is you're decrepid mother. Why bother even comment you jealous fucking carbon copy.

[Amunet369]

did they take the video of of yt bcause it represented the visual truth ya think?

[rodmanian]

Preaching

[tamu0312]

this is the best damn rendition of this song . . . go erykah. I believe in myself.

[finebodi23]

I get it! .. at 0:15 she's pretty much saying we all makes mistakes.. and that it's good to be intuned with yourself.. so that when you fall "off your track" your heart can guide you back..

Love You Miss Badu!

That's why she had to break it down.. Love The Whiz" spin.. Such a beautiful artist.. surprised it was free.... those lucky bastards...

[haret0n]

beautiful lady. beautiful dress. completely unconventional in every way

[highland314]

Erykah Badu iz tha shit...

[SON0KONG]

hells yeh she is

[thachickuluv2hate]

Take em to church mama!

[AfreeQueen]

2:42... There is NO ONE LIKE HER.

"OH, let the shit be broke all the way down..."

Amen, sis!

[babykreap]

@AfreeQueen what about lauryn hill

[AfreeQueen]

@babykreap Lauryn is nothing like Erykah. She's in a class by herself . And so is Laryn. Trying to compare them is like comparing Miles Davis to T.S. Monk.

[aurabalaura]

@babykreap loving lauryn and badu with the same power...but they are different... and doing their shit in the highest, deep way possible. Both are history..

[arab3515]

@aurabalaura yep, erykah and lauryn are two completely different types of consciousness......erykah is more rooted around egypt and lauryn is more rooted around israel.....both of them are bright individuals that are commonly misunderstood.

but it would be unwise to say they are two of a kind, they are infact teaching the same knowledge from two different perspectives.

[adenowa3232]

@arab3515 brilliant comment, thx for posting

[adenowa3232]

@arab3515 brilliant comment, thx for posting

[henrynzidane24an]

@arab3515 one consciousness one expression different flows

[pharati]

i love the song its wonderfull and she is so beatiful i loved!

[goldensatalite]

@ladydipset:

saw her hair flying away at dave chapelles block party :-))

its a wig for sure!

[dyerger]

I love how she adds in the "Believe In Yourself" song from The Wiz!

[Bostongrl6]

Eryhah always wears wigs and during this concert she pulls it off. Her wig wearing is a part of who she is. Badu is the shit.

[peanups2000]

she is so inspirational.i love her.cnt wait to see her live

[amandasiemka]

She's so awesome!

[Jason310M]

she's magical. her vibe is stunning.

[bobothefofo]

i love her afro

[2ndInLine]

Amazing!

[BlackStarGoblin]

.theres nothing like live music

[Mowido27]

i love this song so much, i just found her old CD in a closet a while back, I still love it.

[REVODK]

Erykah used to get it in Ohio!

subscribe to my channel

[Empress1Unique]

Rediculous at 3:14

[AplG7Rocks]

I love her afro it's so puffy. XD

[6663000]

It's a wig, but still cool.

[ladydipset88]

ummm...how do u kno its a wig? Black women cant grow hair? Is that what your implying? you need to wake up..its 2009..

[MrLowBlows]

it is a motha-effin wig. no implications... black women can grow hair. dude had to be awake to type his statement (unless he'she got a medical condition). it is 2009. and ms badu is wonderful.

[6663000]

Did I say black women can't grow hair?

Because I don't think I said anything like that.

I was just saying that Erykah Badu wears a wig, because she does...

[AfreeQueen]

Actually, she's taken it off. lol ON STAGE, no less...and she's STILL awesome!

[tyra696]

its a wig cause she takes it off!! lol

[DrTrydsim]

If I could do this all day beside church, I'd do it cause at least I know there isn't competitive mentalities in this. Just expression of your mind and reality.

[texmex90210]

this reminds me of a good truthful day at the church! lol

[shardtx]

i hear you @ 2:49 Queen E with that squall.

[IronLion379]

[joi124]

I do love Erykah Badu and Jill Scoot however thats not her to the left. If you watch another one of Erykah's performances she uses this back up singer that resembles Jill Scott

[garbeaj]

That is Miss Keisha Jackson on Erykah's left and Nayrok on backup vocals to the left and back of Erykah,with China Black on the right...brilliant ladies in their own right:)

[khill76]

She is my favorite artist...LUV me some Erykah

[niambihc]

[chrisb91]

is that jill stone to the left?
