  • love the original sample Eddie Kendricks -Intimate Friends.....but this is great!!

  • erykah is sooo funkdafied" when i listen to her voice there is sooo many different inspirations that come to mind,billy holiday,chaka kan and so many more

  • Erykah can turn the simple into the sublime

  • Prince and Badu - so original! The both got the subtlest swing feel, raw sweet funk edge and prince can rock out like Hendrix when the feels right - both are in more than one place at the same time when they perform. Great 'stuff'!

  • You aint the worst' est 1 I have done...BUT you'll do ..till he come (HEY!!)

  • Beautiful!

  • Erykah... So talented. Love her music. It's real and not over produced. She knows exactly what she's doing.

  • penny for my thoughts- Common is the fucking sample!! :) shit's hotttt <3

  • This is how you swing. Them stabs going on the doubletime are late as fuck and that what gives you the drunken head nod.

  • THIS IS FUCKING DANGEROUS SHIT.

    The whole thing sends me into a trance, I've listened to it about 150 times now and I stil want more!!!

  • @spurts ...I hear ya.......feelin dat same feelin.

  • Madlib, isn't it?

  • This song has been played at least 150 time by me now!!!!!!

  • this is ever so slightly tuned lower than the record version

  • meh

  • drake going in for life..... he killed this beat as well between him and erykah i dnt know who got the best remix from eddie kendricks

  • @cliljon18 OBViously its common because he was the first person to ride on this sample and a penny for my thoughts is a banger

  • why is it slower? is that purely coz its not copywrite?

  • erykah = the queen of late night music ^_^

  • fuck off corrine is amazing - they're totally different artists - don't compare

  • Sample - Eddie Kendricks - Intimate Friends

  • @AnwarMusic ;) such a cool track!!!

  • @djmochadivine i made a sample beat to with the same sample check out.... /watch?v=23Q-1BoSIZc

  • great music

  • One of the most influential singer/artists in Soul idiom in the past 100 years. LIke with the phenomenon of Aretha Franklin singers want her phrasing, her diction, her swagger and her depth of emotion. That's just the way it is. Brilliant Badu . . . and she just plain b-a-a-a-a-d-d-d enuf 4 u.

  • this song is on some smoooooooooooooove shit!...this is some grown folk music...get on badu and step yall game up!!!!!

  • Whoever that's trying to compare an artist to Erykah Badu needs to be bitch slapped ... Badu should be in her own category because she's amazing .

  • alicia keys has nothing on erykah badu this is much more soulful then unbreakable

  • SHE needs to come back *

  • Sounds like the beat from SISTER by RHYMEFEST.

    Complete and utter respect for Miss Badu.

  • now was this song for Andre or Common?? lol pahaha cause they totally changed after that "Badu Voodoo"!! lol

  • dope track. alot of people have sampled the original eddie K track and done wonders with this.

    this beat is truly channeling some dilla vibes

  • love the beat! 

  • @TheKendallHart1 you sir are a douche.

  • Out of everyone that sampled this from Mister Eddie Kendricks(Rest his soul) I gotta say Eryka did real good justice to his beat. . . Intimate Friends to telling a man "You don't wanna fall in love with me". . . That's a remix for damn sure. . . Like the vinyl cut and started playing backwards:) I'm young & can bump this all day and feel like a grown woman, like yeaaah nigga, you don't wanna fall in love with me. . . uuuugh, i got that flame:)

  • This is my theme song,.....

  • Ole Time's Sake by Sweet Sable. Great sample!

  • Nice sample from Eddie Kendrick's Intimate Friends.

  • your life is SAMPLED !! sit down simple people, open your brain and let it marinate...

  • whooooo edddie kendricks!

  • Where can I get this instrumental any body know

  • This is the same sample used in Common's "Penny for my Thoughts"

  • dopeness

  • To all the people here talking shit about erykah badu can suck my dick!

    She is nr 1 PERIOD......

  • Comment removed

  • anybody know where i can get the instrumental?

  • @tedkay No one can EVER outshine Erykah..  the sooner you realize this, the better. Thanks

  • watch out Eryka! Corinne Bailey is on your ASS! JUST as ! or more attractive , with that sexy British accent and plays Guitar! TOO!~ if anyone that reads this has not heard of Corrine Bailey , punch her up ! She's all THAT!~ and SOOO! Sexy!~Now don't get me wrong! I like some Eryka! cause she sounds like no one else, she's has a her own sound which is very refreshing, A true artist!~BUT!!! If you are on a self made throne remember someone's always waiting for that chance to dethrone you~

  • @tedkay False...Badu is way more established we're talking 12 years of classics..without a badu there is no room for a corinne bailey no disrespect to her but it's a fact...I hear u promoting an artist u like but lets be honest..Badu is top 10 ever female r&b/soul post 1990

  • @Doplarmusic She is the queen of hiphop, and her lyrics are profound. I know Erykah must be a great inspiration to CBR. Plus she got a baby by andre3000 lol

  • @Doplarmusic #TRUTH

  • Comment removed

  • @Doplarmusic RIGHT ON!!!!!! PREACH THAT!

    Cheers, love!

    - J

  • @Doplarmusic you got dat rite, badu paved the way for neo soul WOMEN

  • @funtime2dance

    it's not a compliment to say Erykah Badu's name and :"neo soul" in the same sentence. she's not "neo soul." not even close.

  • @lanigirod She started the neo-soul genre as far as I am concerned, she is SYNONYMOUS with neo soul, dunno what you're on about.

  • @lanigirod lol ur completely wrong

  • @tedkay They are two different artists. NO ONE will ever out shine Erykah. She's already written down in the history books.

    Already a queen in her own right.

  • @tedkay Don't make me laugh mate.

  • @VampireYouth You right! My bad!~ I got a little carried away! she's just such a cutie~~thanks for waking me up ~~

  • @tedkay Corinne Bailey Rae was at Erykah Badu concert in London UK a few yrs ago watching from the crowd! Even she knows Erykah Badu is untouchable and she is clearly a fan!

  • @tedkay If you really did love some "Eryka" then at least you would spell her name correctly.

  • @raspyshiit what song about?can help

  • @raspyshiit what song about?can help

  • @senjadewi ......this song is simply a declaration AGAINST co-dependency! i.e.: I'm soooo BADDDD, u don't wanna fall in <3 with me...there's gonna be some slow singing, that flower brining, if my burglar alarm starts...

  • sounds like 'unbreakable' with a hotter beat... love it!

  • @janebond That original beat from this track is Eddie Kendrick's, "Intimate Friends"

  • @janebond Yeah it's sampled =p

  • @janebond LOL @ 'Unbreakable' "Unbreakable'" took it from Eddie Kendricks "Intimate Friends".

  • @janebond Intimate friends, Eddie Kendricks, 1974

  • @janebond yeah,though i believe badu has sampled the beat Eddie Kendricks' song Intimate Friends and not from alicia key samplebeat 

  • @janebond unbreakable was sampled so..

  • extremely ecletic and unique, i love her style the beat is retarted ILL!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
