@JordanZacarias20 really!? this was a really good CD to me! I love this song, Certainly, On & On, 4 Leaf clover, Otherside of the Game, and Next Lifetime.
HOW CAN SATAN HIMSELF HATE HER MUSIC? Really like how can anyone dislike/ hate /despise her music? It makes no sense I am more speechless..per se than when I responded to Jill Scotts' music
The 90's were so cool...Trent Reznor of Nine Inch Nails recommended Ms Badu and many other interesting artists well outside his fans comfort zone at the height of his powers. Always respected that.
I was born in '94 glad to be associated with the 90's even tho only just so much good music, LOVE this cause it's real not this Lady GaGa n Justin Bieber crap. Eryika Badu is still up there with a Tribe called Quest, Timberland & Magoo, Aaliyah...!
this is one of the best love the B-line! Wooh Baduizm!!
@MJacksonfan123 I'm born the same year, but can't associate myself to the decade, growing up in the 2k's... I've been discovering the 90's hip-hop scene for the past 3-4 years right now, and I'm loving it.
@MJacksonfan123 90s generation unite! hahah born in '93 and my mom made me listen to Erykah, Lauren Hill, Luther Vandross, SOS Band, Gap Band and more. Glad I grew up on REAL soulful muzic too.
I loved this whole album. I think this was my fave track off it. Cause if don't wanna be down with me then you don't want to pick from my apple tree. I think ppl should remember that. Cause ppl will talk about you behind your back but be all in your face sucking you dry if you let them. Actions speak louder than words.
@gregthesenior12 one of the last to use uncorrupted samples? i don't think so... just because most of the music industry is being compressed into nothingness doesn't mean that properly well recorded records don't still get made. some smaller labels still continue to do it properly for the love of the music. sadly not many though...
Well thats true...let me say this: One of the last major artist to use uncorrupted samples. Yes there are many small label artist out there that I like who still use the sampling tech of the early 90's. Its a fact though that in the late 90's hip hop forgot all about sampling and what hip-hop truly was.
@RuinLaugh1 LMAO!, he doesn't mean a menstral cycle "period" he means a time when she was creating music, for example 1997 was a great period (time) for music
Im Only 17 But I Grew Up Listen 2 Erykah Badu !!! She Is So Inspirational : ) <3
