I don't read music or anything, so when I produce, I go basically by ear.
Erykah Badu
The metal or the stone that's helping me .I'll incorporate them into anything I wear - but I think it's about accessories more than anything, because it's how you accessorize yourself that gives you your own unique style.
Erykah Badu
I've had two children. I've had three boyfriends. I've had a lot of things happen that can change your opinions and values and philosophies.
Erykah Badu
All I want to do is give the world my heart... Record label tryina make me compromise my art.
