Erykah Badu created quite a buzz this week, unfortunately not about New Amerykah Part 2 (Return of the Ankh) which was rumoured to be coming out July 29th. No, the latest attention is focused on her third pregnancy with her third baby daddy without a marriage ceremony. I thought we lived in a more progressive age where this kind of thing would hardly be newsworthy, or at least an age of nucle...

When I posted yesterday about "Healer" from Erykah Badu's upcoming new album New Amerykah, I looked everywhere for the album cover artwork, but came up empty-handed. Today, by chance, I stumbled upon it and I Love It!! It's gorgeous and splendid and tuff and everything an album cover should be: This woman has so much creative vision it scares me. Lovin it, and can't wait for the album to dr...

Erykah Badu's voice is sweet as molasses on a warm night: smooth and slippery. I can only imagine what she's like in person on a warm Miami night under the stars. This video from last week's Winter Music Conference in Miami makes it look pretty fabulous!"Real Thing" from New Amerykah:ERYKAH AT THE GIANTSTEP STAGE AT WMC 08Oooooh, I want to see her live soon...Giant Step has more, plus a ghett...

I was already excited about a new album from Erykah Badu, I mean, the woman is a total badass, hangs with the coolest homies and has a voice that can stretch all over the place and still sound good. I love the "Honey" single that's been streaming from her my$pace and today FADER upped a stream of "Healer" which is weirdly sublime. Both songs will be on her Nu AmErykah which comes out late Feb...

My Morning Jacket hearts Erykah Badu ! It's true, the indie rock/country blues/psychedelic reverb-loving outfit have been covering Badu's "Tyrone" on their latest tour. This past weekend, Erykah joined MMJ on stage in Dallas to help them out with the vocals, and as to be expected, she absolutely killed it. According to her management, "Ho [...]~~
