Erykah Feels Judged

Erykah Badu speaks out against folks who are talking about her for having her third child…with her third baby daddy and not being married.
She says, “How dare you disrespect the queendom? I’ve never been so disgusted in all of my life… (You can) kiss my black placenta. Every relationship I’ve ever been in was because I loved the person dearly and was dedicated to us exclusively for a number of years. The fathers of my children are my brothers and friends. We have a great deal of respect for one another and always will… Would it look better to marry and divorce and marry again? Would that be morally correct?” Source
I can’t remember if I posted this before so if I’m posting again just deal with it. Anywho, no, it’s not better to go around marrying people left and right. But I also don’t think it’s good to drop a seed with every peen that flaps your way.

Random Pics

God bless the chile…and the fetus.
Reminds me of something g I saw at one of my high school’s fashion shows. All my PHS alums know what I’m talking about. Her makeup artists should be punched in the face. This is the scariest think I’ve ever seen…I bet that’s the remains of a human baby. For someone who has a relatively nice body Bey keeps wearing ish that makes her look wide as hell. So it’s true! Quick! Some summon the great Lord Jesus and his legion of angels. We’ve got a live one down here!

Quote of the Day

Erykah Badu on the development of her upcoming album:

“I dug deep down into the bottom of my hip-hop coin purse to find some of the freshest scientific, mathematical absurd geniuses that I could connect with because I was feeling pretty twisted myself. The scientists I was dealing with was J Dilla, Madlib, Sa-Ra, 9th Wonder, Kareem Riggins [and] Rashad Smith to name a few. All of these people have a reputation for being visionaries and knowing them well, I felt ‘Okay, now it’s time to put together a project that not only takes us to another place, another dimension, but highlights these sights.’ And that’s what I had in mind for this project that I’ve been tentatively calling KahBa.” (Source)

She sounds JUST like this nutty “friend” of mine (who btw shall remain nameless for fear they’ll read this and then harm me in some way). She’s really talented, that Badu. She’s managed to make me feel like I’m trippin on acid…and I’ve never done acid. Its almost like listening to a Wee Sing cassette tape. Excuse me while I go rock in the corner for a bit. There are spiders and snakes crawling on the walls and its troubling me.
