Marvin Gaye is one of my favorite revolutionaries. He spoke from his heart, his mind. That's what I want to do.

There are millions and billions of atoms of memory of all kinds of musical themes in me.
Erykah Badu
I create my own calm and I keep my balance, because I know that it's not really me, by myself... The Creator always gives me the energy.
Erykah Badu
That's the moment I learned that the more you believe in yourself, the stronger the vibration touches someone else, and things begin to happen the way you dreamed that they would.
Erykah Badu
I don't read music or anything, so when I produce, I go basically by ear.
