If you make a decision, a pact with someone, your friend, you should say, 'I'm gonna do this,' and you should stick to it.

Society has a problem with female nudity when it is not . . . ”—Badu pauses to get her words together she wants this point to be very clear—“. . . when it is not packaged for the consumption of male entertainment. Then it becomes confusing.
Erykah Badu
There are millions and billions of atoms of memory of all kinds of musical themes in me.
Erykah Badu
I was the bohemian in my family, the this is my favorite shoe and I don't care if it has tape around it kind of person. The tape could become a fashion statement. Or a political statement.
