Erykah Badu
My favorite jewelry, it's just what I'm feeling at the time.
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
All I want to do is give the world my heart... Record label tryina make me compromise my art.

I'm a Pisces, so I'm a very closed-book kind of person.
Erykah Badu
I remember when I signed with Kedar Entertainment through Universal Records. It was my first record deal and it's the one I still have now. At that time, there had been a couple of opportunities I was almost given, but at the last minute the giver came back and told me it couldn't happen.
Erykah Badu
We as Black people have to tell our own stories. We have to document our history. When we allow someone else to document our history the history becomes twisted and we get written out. We get our noses blown off.
Erykah Badu
I have an organization called BLIND [Beautiful Love Incorporated Nonprofit Development], so named because even though my interest is in the black community, because that's where I grew up and that's where I'm most skilled in fixing things, it doesn't end there.
Erykah Badu
I try to be honest and I keep moving.
Erykah Badu
You don't have to believe everything you think.
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 consider my musical ability to be a gift from the Creator. It's not that I try to work hard or nothing like that, it's a gift, it was given to me, and I appreciate it.
Erykah Badu
I just love expressing my joy and my mind through what I wear, or how I cook, or how I dance, or how I write or perform a song - how I move.
Erykah Badu
What I work hard at doing is staying on a path of being kind and showing and proving that I'm a good person to society. That's hard. The talent, that's a gift. I just came here like that.
Erykah Badu
I love putting the music together. It's like art
