Bass line is purely genius! Love it!

[TrueStoryJackson]

Her Eyes Are So Beautiful!

[KerenX16]

REAL QUEEN! genius.

[blaqbertrand]

By the time you get to 3:48, the song is on another level. 10 years later and we still asking "why".... Thank you Ms. Badu

ERYKAH GOT THAT FUNK

[ammatonio]

Non so se l'avete mai sentita in originale sul CD di Erikah Badu. L'avevo preso quasi per caso in USA appena uscito.: i brividi colano sulla schiena, i piedi formicolano, la testa esplode, il cuore rimbalza sincopando. È il brano migliore di sempre di Erykah. Provate a 110 dB di SPL, esploderete letteralmente!

[sexymarqullo]

LOVE

[ahayes1189]

My new favourite song

[Bilonda]

I agree. I actually think it has nothing to do with her own voice but a rather funny equalization.

[bvoice85]

I used to play this song every morning before going to school had the volume at the peak at 6AM!!! LOL I love Erykah!!

[amarvinwinansfan]

FUNKY BEAT!! check out Steve Wonders "Oridinay pain"

[ddesign63]

This JOINT would have been on the Top of the Charts back in the 70's for sho'!!! This is where I want music to be today!

PEACE

[Peng0212]

love it...

[jacksonnicolem]

Oh my goodness! I love this woman!

[LILGULLYC]

this 1 of fav songs by her...love u e

[gatorio]

cool song, she rocked this one out! reminds me of those d'angelo live jams he used to do back in 2000. goddamit, i miss those days, when soulquarians ruled the music world :)

[bbonemn]

i have all of her released albulms and i think that is is one of her best songs to date. i wish she performed this song more often or more people post this song because it just has so much power i just love her music. i may be young but i think she is one of the best artists of our time.

[xXReplicantXx]

I commend her downright for reviving everything rich in music. Not many artists even try to do that these days let alone be able to

[bahia6681]

wow...really loves what one is capable of creating...thanks 4 sharing this space

[blossomingbeauty]

i've seen her perform live a couple of times. she never did this song. i'm glad for this post. thanks

[MayGemimi]

This is one of my favourites by Erykah. She did an excellent performance of this song in Rome.

[bluenotejazz]

Mama's Gun. Genuius. Years later, and it still hasn't been equalled.

What other of todays so called "R&B" artist s have the guts, the brains and the talent to combine hard rock, soul and funk in one song.

Brilliant

[othajr23]

I funkin agree!

[brotherhood302]

@bluenotejazz You ain't lyin' about that...Mama's Gun hands down in a class all by itself. I'm in love with this women!!

[DawnJake]

She is the best of everything, she is not just one minded, she is so intellegent with any character she senses, and when she is she is the BEST OF EVERYTHING

[sailorproserpina]

The more I listen to this live version, the more it grows on me.

[VelvetRope1814]

She is speaking the truth.She pours her heart and soul and her music.

[sailorproserpina]

I love this song!! It's so angry. Though I prefer the album version.

[missveedra]

i love so much this song! every song of her just..i just feel it.

[Laeliapurpurata]

I always wondered how the beats were done... some guy kept telling me it was one person, but I thought it was not possible.

[Limeade04]

You can really hear N'Dambi holding it down in the background vocals!

[msbadu2003]

she really does have the dopest backup singers...

[VelvetRope1814]

I have listened to the album version and that one is better.

[VelvetRope1814]

I don't like this song.

[Chesscrusader]

The arragement wasn't a very fortunate one, the album version is absolutely fabulous!

[gemi96377]

I totally agree!

[cinnabunz32]

This song is okay she have's better!
