More quotes by Erykah Badu
All I want to do is give the world my heart... Record label tryina make me compromise my art.
Erykah Badu
I started performing at two or three on a tape recorder, one of those little flat recorders where you just push play and record.
Erykah Badu
I'm a complete human being. I'm very emotional and loving. I feel, I hurt, I give, I take, and also I think. I analyze. I'm a sociologist, anthropologist.
Erykah Badu
I'm learning from them! Everyone says that, but it's true. You learn more about yourself from them than from any other lesson.
Erykah Badu
I think giving is a blind act that should come from a part of me that sees no discrimination (that's why I called it blind).
Erykah Badu
I view my hair and clothes as functional art.
Erykah Badu
I think what makes people think that is because of things people write. It really doesn't have anything to do with the artist.
Erykah Badu
My paternal grandmother gave me the courage to investigate things and not take things at face value or judge people by what I first imagine them to be.
Erykah Badu
People who say that music is dead or hip-hop is dead are refusing to evolve.
Erykah Badu
If you want to relate to a certain audience or generation, you have to speak their language. I truly believe that.
Erykah Badu
There are millions and billions of atoms of memory of all kinds of musical themes in me.
Erykah Badu
I'm pretty mutable as a human being, period - if you put me on Pluto, I can figure it out.
Erykah Badu
Marvin Gaye is one of my favorite revolutionaries. He spoke from his heart, his mind. That's what I want to do.
Erykah Badu
Personally, I don't choose any particular religion or symbol or group of words or teachings to define me. That's between me and the most high. You know, my higher self. The Creator.
Erykah Badu
I have so much music that I do. Just like how a visual artist is always sketching something but they might not share it, I'm always writing songs or coming up with melodic lines on piano or guitar. It's therapy. It's always happening.
Erykah Badu
I knew it would happen. I knew I'd be No. 1. I'm a new artist I don't know the rules. Nobody told me it wouldn't happen
Erykah Badu
Things are useless without practice.
Erykah Badu
Music and the music business are two different things.
Erykah Badu
What does music mean to me? I don't think I would really be much without it, without it coming through me. It's my means of communication, my means of growth, my means of transportation from one point in my life to another.
Erykah Badu
I have the ability to sing with emotion and feeling, but if you say I sound like Billie Holiday, that's cool. Let's look at who Billie was: she was this person, this singer, this beautiful diva who could move the audience with the slightest gesture of her hand.
