More quotes by Erykah Badu
I have a daughter who's four, who's dainty and princess-esque. I still get to dress her like my little accessory. I think I have one more year to do that, then she's going to get her own ideas - so I better move quickly!

I have a Pinterest, and if you look there you'll see the things I really like and adore, have crushes on, and there's a lot of stuff from Riccardo's [Tisci] line on there.
Erykah Badu
I don't know... I've been doing it for 17 years now, so of course I've seen pictures and thought, Oh my god, I wish I would've never worn that. Yeah, but I did! And it was probably because it was my favorite thing at the time - my clothes always have some kind of emotion attached to them.
Erykah Badu
What I like about houses like Givenchy. It's easy to pull from. With Givenchy you can accessorize to build anything, any look.

When I get ready to do an album, that means I have something to say for the sake of words, and I listen back to all of the things I've been creating and pull things from out of the air to go with them. It's almost like I start creating the album before I even think about creating it.
Erykah Badu
I strongly believe that the more positive my vibration is, the clearer my message will be. I keep my negative thoughts from infiltrating my pathway and my dreams. Other people's thoughts are none of my business.
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
I'd rather see a person with a natural mind and processed mind than a processed mind and a natural head.
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
There are millions and billions of atoms of memory of all kinds of musical themes in me.
Erykah Badu
Through [my children] patience, they're showing me how much they support what's going on, because I'm having to do a lot of work right now.
Erykah Badu
I have a master plan as an artist. I've always said I'm not going to be punching nobody's clock. I will work as an artist to survive in this world.
Erykah Badu
My hair is an aesthetic choice… At the same time, how you wear your hair is a political statement as well.
Erykah Badu
I'm a Pisces, so I'm a very closed-book kind of person.
Erykah Badu
I'm pretty mutable as a human being.
Erykah Badu
I'll dabble here and there in different forms of the art, but the label has me locked down like a slave so, of course, I'll be doing albums during this time
Erykah Badu
My nine-year-old daughter is very creative and colorful and trendy.
Erykah Badu
Whenever I think about funk music, it has a look - and that's how it sounds.
Erykah Badu
Breathing becomes really easy when you're laughing. It kick starts that feeling of joy.
Erykah Badu
I'm only in competition with my last level.
