  • Great tune to Vibe out to!!

    Back in the day when things we coool.. ♪

  • REAL MUSIC

  • Oh she's talking about drugs!!!!!!!!!!!!

  • What's to dislike about this song?

  • my friend doesn't like Erykah Badu because he thinks jazz is stupid and for pretentious hipsters. I had to slap him for two reasons. 1., she's totally R&B; 2., all the music that he likes (pop punk and all that, in my opinion, annoying music) stems from jazz music theory. therefore by listening to his music, he's listening to jazz. smh, ignorant people.

  • @litebright210 Justin Bieber Fans.

  • puff

  • WHO EVER CLICK DISLIKE NEED TO GET A LIFE!!!

    this song is soo bad I do not even have words, its a blessing to hear it.

  • the ppl who dislike this are ridiculous, love this song

  • Drinking and vibing

  • pure ear orgazm

  • Soul Music

  • @litebright210 , Ya see!

  • If you dont like this music, why in the hell are you clicking on her music!? I you dont like watching the news, do you turn the channel to the news only to complain and say you dont like the news?! Human Beings man!

  • back in the day when you thought people were your friends before videos.

  • one and only Erykah,so damn smooth thang :)

  • I've seen this calm all forms of life. The vibe or the music behind the music behind the music says it all when you listen to it. If you want something calming... you've found it period.

  • back to the early 90's

  • Every time I'm forced to listen to the noise on the radio today, I think of this song. Why can't it be like back in the day? When music used to bump, songs had real meaning, and an artist had to be able to sing to get a record deal? As far as I'm concerned, R&B died in 2009. My personal R&B golden years are 1965-2008. :) That's all I listen to nowadays!

  • @missj21 more like 2005 tbh :/

  • @missj21 i said the same thing however thers this artist named frank ocean a different genre ofd chek him out guarrentee theres somes songs you will enjoy back in the day wwe had real music thats y its so much cxorruption cuz no music like erkah and lauryn

  • @missj21 2008?mainstream r&b started to decline around 2002.

  • @StylistecS For me it was 2008. That was the last time I listened to the local "blazing hip hop and R&B station" around here and knew the words to the songs, knew who the artists were, and actually enjoyed most of what I was hearing. Now....I could go an hour listening to that same station and will not know one song that is being played. I guess I'm just getting old. (shrug) LOL! :)
