    Thank you Queen Badu for so nice words an flowing vibes and big beats on all of your songs!!!!

    WE LOVE YOU

  • such good memories when this song came out, and every party we had ther was always a Tyrone..lol

  • don t miss fantasia vh1 reality show "fantasia for real"that airs on vh1 jan11 2010

  • thanks because i love ha

  • she is one hot dirty bitchin baby and I dont mean maybe. Extra tasty torchy and hot

  • what does that wooden symbol behind her represent, she also wears it as a ring? anyone know

  • That symbol represents Isis. She is the Egyptian goddess of motherhood and fertility.

  • Not quite. It's an Ankh, the Egyptian sign for Eternal life. But it's outer shape is kind of similar to the carving for the African fertility statue..but those are from West Africa - not Egypt, and are more closely shaped to the Venus/Female sign.

  • It also symbolizes eternal life, or just life

  • Called by some a Hebrew yod a letter of that ancient alphabet. Some call it the Crux ansata. The cross predates christianity many many years as a symbol of and in worship to many ancient religeons. Even way back in ancient babylon.

  • It's called an "ankh" and it's the Egyptian hieroglyphic character for "eternal life".

  • Mams Gun es un dico esencial. sin desperdicios, óptimo.

  • it aint no fUUUUUn if the homies cant HHHhhhAAAAaave none..

  • love it she is the truth

  • I love her! Incredibly talented! She doesn't have to shake her ass, or run around looking like a whore with a damn leotard on or wearing long blonde weave down her back. I love her for that. She is real and I respect her for that.

  • you gotta twitter tyrone now lol

  • WHAHAH Twitter tyrone. xD

  • She don't sound like she's from Brooklyn or from anywhere up North to me. She's from Dallas and if you've been to Dallas, you can easily hear her Dallas accent. Listen to her slang. She is country, just not as country as Beyonce. HTOWN girls accents are thicker.

  • genius

  • Brilliant
