“ I’m an artist and I’m sensitive about my shit.”-Erykah Badu
I literally just typed this.....lol
Finslly someone normal .. . .SHIIIS FUcking pretentious slthouh I sppreciste some some stuff ... . My '@' doesn't woRK =)
🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣ok
Yyyyyyyyyyyaaaaaaaassss!
You'd betta know it!! 👏 👏
Erykah Badu,Sade,Lauryn Hill,Jill Scott...these women are phenomenal and timeless artists
That is a my soulful list❤
I must second that! ❤️
Check out the artist Mumu Fresh. You won't be disappointed.
CORRECT 👍🏾 (Jill is my fav) 😊
Lauryn Hill does it most for me. Love your list!!!
*To know that Tyrone was a freestyle is BANANAS!!!*
Genius at its finest...I love that it was recorded LIVE! Every time I hear it it takes me back to being at her concert
"If you throw a rock in a crowd, a hit dog will holler." I love it!
Yesssssssssssss honey Erykah is my girl ♥️♥️♥️
That's a very old saying.. very old..
That is one of my Favorite sayings...
Very old saying
You never heard that saying before? You been living under a rock or something?
Erykah Badu, Jill Scott, India Arie, Musiq Soulchild, Lauryn Hill etc.. mannn their albums stayed on repeat!!
And still on repeat🙌🏾
Timeless Classic 🔥🔥🔥
Absolutely
To. This. Day!
Never gets old. ❤
Badu and Sade both have decades between albums and their music is so timeless it works.
Yes. I was thinking the same thing.
Such an on point analogy of the two 👍🏽!...
Great comparison.
Sade, Badu and Anita Baker are timeless… they all sell out without any new music. They are all ICONIC
And they are both still so beautiful. They will always be beautiful.
I listened to Baduizm the whole album when i was pregnant with my first son. He is now 24yrs old. That album kept me up and strengthen me to carry my son.
I still listen to the album all the time
Same!
Same here, and my ex HATED her for no rational reason!! Coincidentally, my name is Erica too, and he was very abusive. Eleven years after having my first son, I married my husband Tyrone (Ty). Funny how thangs work out, ya dig?🥰
That's so funny. Yayo got me thru my Hyperemesis Gravidarum in 2021.
@@courtgee123I loveeeeee that song!!!!
Tamron's Stylist needs a raise, Tamron stays fly!!! Virgo Nation!!!
She looks great here
Virgo ❤
People don't know how rare it is that ERYKAH BADU gives interviews .... Tamaron Don't know how you pull this off but you are the G.O.A.T👏👏💯💯
Lol I doñt blame Badu protect the energy you have at all costs.
really
I said the same thing …Tamron is from Dallas so that may have helped lol
She gives interviews all the time just look on CZcams what are u saying lol
Exactly
After listening closely to the song "Tyrone" i realized that the guy that she was bashing didnt even have a name, Tyrone was just the guys friend, so any guy by the name Tyrone shouldn't have felt slighted 😂
Tyrone was one of his cousins...she had to pay his way 🤣🤣
@@_ChaoticCreative_ speak that !!!
@@_ChaoticCreative_ 😂
This is groundbreaking.
So glad that somebody else finally said it. I remember the "comedy skit" they did when she hosted/performed the song for one of the Soul Train Awards. I didn't understand why no one seemed to get that Tyrone was the one who was financially self-sufficient. I mean, he could have got a truck to come get his bum friend at any time? *lol*
Sade, Badu and Anita Baker can sell out anywhere without an album. They all do it and all are ICONIC
And Sade for sure.
Not trying to be a jerk but I've never heard of safe but I know Erica Badu and Anita Baker can definitely sell out the arena.... Safe, is a little behind me
@@u.twinston2343 I think that he/she meant to type Sade
@D Mints, 👍🏾
Sade, yes, would fill two 🏟 🏟 stadiums, and my Heart ❤️ 💯✊🏾
I’ve seen Anita and Sade. Lifetime experiences. I’d love to see Erykah.
Erykah’s voice is so unique and distinctive 🤩😌
Seeing this interview, it hit me how much Erykah Badu changed my life. I was in high school when Baduizm came out. Her artistic expression is unlike anything I know.
SHES VERY TALENT! AND REAL LOVE HER! I ALSO THINK ARDRE 3000 ! BROUGHT AND HER ! BY RESPECTING HERSELF FIRST ! AND NOT SETTING FOR LESS ! BECAUSE SHE RISED HER KIDS NO MATTER WHAT ! RATHER THEY WHERE THERE OR SHES WAS LEFT ALONE! POWER TO A STRONG SISTER! GOD BLESS YOU! PRETTY EYES IN ALL!
It was definitely a life changing album. I was in middle school.
Life changing how?
So was I and I completely agree. We are still yet to hear anything that compares to Badu
I was in college, and I finally saw a performer who was like me, she resonated so much with me.
Tamron thanks for creating the space where she can show up and know she'll feel at home ..love you both
❤

TAMRON IS SO PROFESSIONAL and I love the way she dresses.
I hate how rushed her interviews are though
I’ve seen her live twice and she does put on a hell of a show. The songs are decades old, but the way she performs them makes them sound fresh, and she’s charismatic, and quite frankly really funny.
She's amazing live. The intro she does "ME" is always different.
Most are her own compositions lyrics and music.
She is definitely an icon,as well as a DIVA OF HER STYLE.
Just saw her in ATL!!!! She is everything you said and more!!! And even my mom, who has VERY high standards, PRAISED her backing band. They were amazing too.
This is very rare she gives interviews. It's great to see Texas women doing their thing. Love you E
I just thought the same! VERY Rare indeed...and how wonderful to see her on Vogue.
I put the same on the other clip.. Tx!! ❤❤
Yes indeed. Love that she is such a talented Texan 💜💜WE GOT A LOT OF TALENT IN THE LONESTAR STATE 💜💜💜
👏🏾🤘🏾🥳❤️
Dallas to be exact!!!!!!!!
I saw Erykah Badu in Tel Aviv. The arena was huge and intimate at the same time. She was amazing! She IS a performance artist, and I am so glad I had the opportunity to see her in person. I believe her when she says her best is still to come. 💝
w
Wow..Tel Aviv.. That sounds amazing.
Of all places...Tel Aviv...that is amazing.
I saw her last year. Spent $200 for my ticket. 5th or 6th row. It was well worth it. She did not disappoint.🎵💕
She never does ❣️
*I was on the fence about wearing a very different dress for my surprise birthday party ( Yes, I found out lol). When she said "You are creating a moment that will never be again," That sentence shifted my mind and now I am going to wear it. Thank you! 🖤*
You better wear that dress, Happy Birthday! P.S. shame on you for ruining the surprise 🤣
I’m sure you will look wonderful!
You & Everyone will never forget it. Memorable moments are our magic fuel we have to pull from.🙏🏾
Happy Birthday, and wear what pleases you!! 🎂🎊
Go girl!!!
A beautiful distinction...she really is a PERFORMANCE ARTIST!🎨🎭🪬🔮🧿
Her Tiny concert was amazing as well!!!👌👌💕💕
Erykah is Beautiful and mysterious 💚
I'm 1/2 a century older now but when I was in my early 20's I discovered Erykah Badu. Baduizm is a masterpiece. Peace Blessings & Love to Mz. Badu.❤🙏🏼🕊🌹🎤
She gets deeper than ppl know. I listen to one of remix tape back in 06 and i havent looked at earth, life, nothing rhe same. Now i be living that life cuz its real and we are connected to the earth
I still listen to that album! The first time I heard her voice - I was instantly hooked. 💕💜✨
Amen that Live album is from Jesus’ man purse♥️♥️💙
1/2 older is 50 years older. She wasn’t on the scene 50 years ago.
@@missnurseeri lol she saying thats her age today back in the day she was in her 20
I loved the interview. That audience, tho?! THAT'S the vibe right there. Show the Queen that love! I loved the enthusiasm of the audience, and you can tell Tamron holds Erykah in such high esteem. Great interview!!!
What a VIBE watching this interview 😍🥰 Love me some Erykah 💯👏🏽🥰
I thought the same way...they really showing out! You can feel the love and appreciation to Miss Badu!
Yep. That audience was on fire. 🔥
I saw Miss Badu years ago in DC and she puts on a Great show. Worth every penny and even more.
My girl will be LATE because time is an illusion but baby when she is on that stage it is EVERYTHING!
Yes. I've seen Ms. Badu in the DC area several times. She and Jill Scott did the Summer Spirit Festival together and they were amazing.
@@renewedgyrl 😂
@@SoniT I’ve never seen Jill Scott live but I would love to.
Absolutely! I saw her in CA
When she said her best work is still in her and she's working her way up to it. Yo!!! I can only imagine how FIRE 🔥 LIT that album gonna be. Mama's gun was the best for me and to top that is gonna be INSANE!!!! 🤣 I love her since day one..🥰
Looooved Mama's Gun!
I still listen to Mama’s Gun regularly.
My favorite!! Know it like the back of my hand!! One of my biggest inspirations!! My all time favorite artist!! I'll meet and hear her live one day!! I just know it!!
Mama's GUN?
@@angelamhaigler Ikr!!! 👍🏿
Love this interview!! Erykah Badu is authentic as can be. Her music has never sounded stale nor dated.
Y’all my Dad took my 2 sisters and I to our first concert and it was Erykah Badu. We were 5, 8 and 13. It’s a core memory for so many different reasons and I’m so thankful for that experience. I love this lady and the genre. ❤❤❤❤
I saw Erykah in concert about 10 years ago. She was fabulous. go gurl with your fashion.
Our girl, Badu!!! Homegrown here in Dallas, Texas. She is A VIBE, she is REAL!!!!
Yes!!! And i love how she's remained humble and true to her roots.
But don’t act like she from Dallas and that’s a good thing
@@laurenbatiste8939 👌
@@laurenbatiste8939 Are u from Dallas? Just asking
@@laurenbatiste8939 Dallas Is LIT honey🤣 don’t do us!🥰
So poised yet laxed; golden yet present. Erykah even answers with wisdom and art. It's like she occupies two spaces at the same time. She's my daughter and my favorite artist! We bond thru music
Can I love this comment more than once! You’ve nailed it, gave me chills ❤
I still remember the 1st time I heard “On and On”. I was married, in my house with my children playing, and I heard this beat….. I ran over to the TV and just watched that video. I was captivated by the sound, her voice, and everything that was going on in the video. it was at that moment that I fell in love with “Neo Soul“. Yes… Erykah Badu is The Queen of Neo Soul! Then she brought out Jill Scott 👀and I was just done 😂 #MusicHeaven 🥰
Jill Scott iz the one who wrote most of material. Jill Scott done neo soul that style before .any of them done it. .I'm not a fan of Lauren Hill .but .yea .Jill Scott did tracks for her also before anyyy of them were realavent
Baduizm help me through one of the worst (undiagnosed) depressions in my life. Thank you so much you crazy Diamond.
@@lorenzochi7654 girl, I lost my mind when I first heard the sinking of Jill Scott! When I heard “Long Walk”, I wrote Hidden Beach Records to tell them how much I loved Jill Scott! Since social media wasn’t a big thing at that time, I guess I wrote with such passion for them, they got excited and asked me if I wanted to do a listing party for Brenda Russell. I like Brenda Russell but I wasn’t energized by her like I was Jill Scott. But Erykah Badu was the first person that I had heard with that type of sound and later found out that Jill was the one that did the writing for her🥰
I seen Erykah Badu, Jill Scott & Queen Latifa back in 2005 in Charlotte NC at a outdoor venue, it was explosive 🧨♥️❤️❤️😍🥰
@@lorenzochi7654 hi! I'm curious as to why you're not a fan of Lauryn Hill. I almost always NEVER hear that 😄 LbS
I remember walking down the street in Dallas and walking up on a free concert she was doing. Miss Badu really has a giving spirit and her music and performances are always on point. She’s so down to earth. I’m so glad to see these two greats on the same stage.
It doesn't matter when I hear Erykah's music, it takes me to a time and place. She's iconic... 🎶 🎵 👑
Watching these two beautiful Queens on stage together made my day!
Tamron ain't no queen
Tyrone is my song. My late husband and I busted out LAUGHING, when we first heard it because I did him like that. "But you can't use my phone." LOL Pisces gang 🤣
I would love to see Erykah do a half time show at the Superbowl
She'd tune the whole show and I'm here for it!
Love that her interview was extended. Love Ms. Badu!!!!!
I love her debut record---she sounded like an updated version of Billie Holiday back in the day. I loved that song "Tyrone" because it made me laugh at the time--it's a really good song, too. I plan to get a little more of her music, too. Nice to see she's still just as weird and wonderful and kinds spaced out as usual. Would be cool to hear if she's putting out some new stuff.
One of the few artists that both I and my Mama connected to. Ms Badu is a blessing to generations. The most timeless vibe ever. ❤️💪🏿❤️💪🏿❤️
Right?! My momma can't remember a thing about music, but go 'head and put "Tyrone" on somebody's speakers....💃🏽💃🏽💃🏽🎵🎶🎤 Lol
my mom bought me her Album... she is a true G
I’ve never seen the audience on Tamron’s show so hype for a guest before. Erykah’s energy is really electric
I always loved Erykay Badu’s singing style! ❤❤❤ Tyrone was the jam back in the day. 🔥🔥🔥🙌🏾
She is so cool and very creative!
Yasss!!!
I still remember each Queen's album like Nina, Sade, Erykah, Lauryn, Jill, I purchased and burnt out back then and still play them all like they the newest hits of today. Timeless creations that will live on thru every generation. 🥰🎵🎶💫
True artist are always asking, "What can I do next, how can I make things better?" She understands the assignment.
Hey Naomi! Apologies for dropping this here I came across your CZcams channel and I would love to know you better. I'm guessing you must be an honest person, because I always found your comments to be so nice and respectful. If it's okay with you, I'd love to be friend but if it sounds odd or embarrassing in any way please don't embarrass me by replying. Have a wonderful day, and keep sharing!
Her 'wit' is off the chain♥️!...
A hit dog will holla!! 😂😂😂😂
if you throw a rock in the crowd🤣
Love it! It's true !
I saw her once in concert and would go see her again and again regardless if she has a new album or not! Long Live Baduizm 🖤
I'd like to dedicate this song to the Creator's Righteous Children....that's my girl, the incomparable Queen of Neo Soul...Erykah Badu....and Coco is absolutely right....despite not having put out an album in several years, she still sellout arenas....why? Because Erykah is a Force of Nature...her music is timeless and her live performances are experiences!!💜🥰 🙌
She is the Female FRANKIE BEVERLY & MAZE. SHE DON'T HAVE TO OUT NEW MUSIC! HER MUSIC IS LEGENDARY!!!
I’ve always admired her individuality. Phenomenal artist, creative. I think she genuinely enjoys her own company lol. Love this interview BB 😍
I will NEVER forget the first time I heard her voice. I know exactly the time of day and where. My jaw dropped. I was like, THAT is a voice! This person will be famous. Dear Goddess Erykah, We are all blessed to walk this Earth together 🙏🫶🏼❤️
I’ve been to 3 of her shows and it’s never the same ❤ she’s pure greatness
How wonderful Erykah came to visit. 😊
Tam almost cried and I did too from her energy. I felt her happiness
Our earth mother Ms. Badu - true talent and such a creative soul! That first album is a classic and hit after hit
I love this!!! I don't think I have ever seen Badu on a daytime interview!! I'm definitely a day one fan!! I remember when this album came out. We were on vacation and I ran to the the record store to buy it!! Me & my friends played Appletree on repeat!! She is one of the only artists were you can play her albums from start to finish on repeat!
Matter of fact, I'm gonna pull out my Baduism "CD" and play it right now! Lol
She’s more beautiful than she was in the 90s .
Nah she’s still looks good but in the 90’s come on man
She also looks very nice bald headed
I loved this interview so much. Tamron giving Erykah her flowers 💐. Black women uplifting black women. 💕
She can do all types of music we love her 💚💚💚
Erykah is such a gem. Love her art❤️
“My best work is still in me”
I LOVE her!!
How can you not love Erykah?!
26 years!!! I'm rocking that album like it's brand new. Lawd. Her music is timeless
Right!!!!!
Watching this interview made me cry!!! Her vibe, her energy awoken something in me and I love it!!!! Unapologetically being who she was created to be ❤❤❤
Thank you Tamron for having Erykah on your show. Her interview was fanatic and she was very comfortable and open with you. She is one of my favorite artists and it was great seeing her so vibrate and (still) just as cool as ever!
Thanks to all who were involved in making this episode happen.🙌🏾😁
This has been my favorite artist since she came out!! I had the honor and pleasure of seeing her perform 2016. You just can't explain the vibe. She was so cool in person. She took a picture with and held a conversation with me. The best highlight!!!
SHE CAN SELL OUT ARENAS BC OF HER BEAUTIFUL ENERGY 🦋! ENERGY IS EVERYTHING
I still listen to this song
There used to be a radio show in Texas back on the day before Ms Badu came out “On the phone with Tyrone” anyone remember that? 😂😂
Yes, We Do 🦻🏽
Her style is unique and different. She's definitely one of a kind.
I would love to see her live in concert. I remember buying her first album on cd 💿 when I was in high school. She is a true Pisces ♓️ indeed!
I hate for you that you didn't get to see the mamas gun tour. I've seen tons of folks live and that show was one of the very best.
Saw Dave Chappelle and he surprised us with Erykah Badu. She performed and sang a few songs. It was awesome. Her band and background singers were 🔥🔥🔥🔥
Please see her ASAP, preferably with great seats. Been blessed to see her at least 6 times in concert. She is like the beautifully talented cousin that you and the fam are happy to buy tix for her show.
One of the greatest albums of all time
Agree. I have it on vinyl.
Much respect to Ms. Badu, awesome artist.
My favorite artist...hands down...her creativity is incomparable
She's a Masterpiece!!!
She's definitely a performance artist! Her concerts are phenomenal and remain one of the best I've seen
I saw her in Concert in 98 for Baduizm and she KILLED!! it was at Radio City Music Hall and she had the audience in the Palm of her Hands!!
My Bucket List: To see Erykah Badu perform at the Superbowl! I thoroughly enjoy her music and performances!!
"My eyes are green cuz I eat a lot of vegetables, it don't have nothing to do with your new friend...🎶🎶🎶👌👏💕💕
That song is a masterpiece! Three movements in one song!
That album was a game changer. My friend played it & we were like in AWE! We couldn't believe what we were listening to. #epicsongs #Erykah
I will never forget modeling with her sister.
Beautiful spirit inside and out
Ms.Badu❤✨ her energy just fills the room! I was 15 the first time I saw her perform at a women's convention here in Dallas....she was an hour late to her set😂 but definitely worth the wait🙌🏾 she'll forever be my favorite live performer. Giving us timeless music since On & On...everytime I hear it, it's like a time machine back to the 90's lol....I think Queen of Neo Soul suits her career for sure❤ she's literally the definition of AUTHENTIC✨
I know we are not supposed to idolize humans, but idolize Erykah Badu. Her aura, style, and how she carries herself are just mind-blowing!! She has a genuinely mesmerizing personality!
Erykah Badu is an international relic.
I just love her energy and spirit. Her rawness is unmatched. Many years ago I had the chance to see her perform at The House of Blues in Orlando. She was many months pregnant and scratching and mixing records behind her back. I knew FOR SURE after witnessing that show, that there would never be another Ms. Badu
Erykah Badu puts on a great show. I saw her live and it was amazing. She took forever to come out but I love it that she gave new and upcoming artist a chance to showcase their talents as her opening acts. It was great
How can you not love them both. ❤️❤️
Queen Erykah 💕👑💐
I can't wait to be so peaceful in my divine energy like her
Erykah Badu is our very own Iris Apfel! That's one lunch date I would love to attend!!
Now that would be a show! Badu for super bowl!
🙌🏾🙌🏾🙌🏾🙌🏾 the beauty of 👸🏽Badu, timeless Authenticity, of authentic genuine beauty that starts on the inside.🙇🏽♀️👏🏾🙌🏾🙌🏾
Seeing her show in person is golden.
I was a grown-up (by age) when this Baduism came out, and let me tell you how it was my pathway into Growup Woman 'Ish!! The songs taught me how to grow up, and mature, and what I should accept/expect from men and life!!!
Badu is a rare performer she's serious about her art.
Hey Terrie! Apologies for dropping this here I came across your CZcams channel and I would love to know you better.

If it's okay with you, I'd love to be friend but if it sounds odd or embarrassing in any way please don't embarrass me by replying. Have a wonderful day, and keep sharing!
I AM IN LOVE WITH MS. BADU! Always have been. If you haven't been to one of her concerts you are missing an experience. This chic has entered into a space and realm that sometimes I think she doesn't understand?? Yes she weird but it's sometimes intriguing about her. Blessings.
I love her vibe and style 💕
I felt so blessed by this interview. Thank you Tamron!😭😍
My girl Apples 😮 we both attended Booker T Washington School of performing Arts in Dallas ❤
