Erykah Badu basks in her new era of reinvention and expansion

Erykah Badu has unintentionally occupied the role of culture shifter and influencer for 20 plus years, well before it became a trendy, social media descriptor. Her impact has vibrated throughout music and fashion, and the "Green Eyes" songstress sees it clearly.

"I can hear my influence in music. I can see my influence style," explained the four-time Grammy winner. "I hear my words resonated all over the world. So yeah, I can see it."

That cultural cache may be why her collaboration with Italian fashion house Marni has been so anticipated. The Marni x Erykah Badu capsule was released in select U.S. Marni boutiques last month. The 42-piece collection features women's ready-to-wear garments, including dresses, accessories and footwear, accented with handmade leather patchwork, heavy wools, bold sequins and lush velvets. Badu, 52, who is known for her creative and eccentric style, was hands on in all aspects.

"I've worked the same way in every area of my life; on stage I'm doing sound, I'm doing lighting, set design, costume, hair, makeup," said Badu, whose 18-year-old daughter Puma modeled for the campaign. "I'm involved in everything. I am a creator. I am a visionary - we put those things together and came up with something really creative."

Claire Sulmers, CEO of the influential style blog Fashion Bomb Daily, says Badu's versatility has made her a muse for designers.

"She is a trendsetter, but she's always marched to the beat of her own drum...she can work anything, from a designer you might find at a flea market, to a runway," said Sulmers, who called Badu an icon. "I think that is what can be attributed to her collaborating with brands because a lot of these brands that might have been under the radar or off the radar, now they're like, `Whoa, there's this beautiful woman who is an amazing artist, who also has an amazing style, and we want to work with her."'

As Badu enters the fashion industry and launches other business ventures, the singer-songwriter is keeping her feet firmly planted in music with a tour on the horizon. In a wide-ranging video interview with The Associated Press, Badu discussed her businesses and creativity.

The line between entertainer and philosopher is often blurred when conversing with the "Next Lifetime" artist. When asked what makes her happy, she mentions her diet; when questioned about the creation of her classic records, she brings up the latest theories on the formation of the pyramids.

Her aura has a warm, but intense gravitational pull, and there's a long-running joke that one can't look into her eyes without falling into a trance -- a myth Badu embraces. She has embarked through life with a creative fearlessness.

"If I'm a little nervous or afraid, I feel brave because of the confidence," said Badu, who has served as both a birthing and end-of-life doula for the past two decades. "That has always driven my creativity and art. So, it's easy to be a non-conformist, especially when you feel confident that there's no such thing as losing because even those moments are lessons. I take all the information and use them to reinvent myself each day."

Badu has helped bring babies into the world for friends, family and even celebrity mothers like singers Summer Walker and Teyana Taylor, stating the relationships happen organically, and she only agrees if she can dedicate the time. There's no website or phone number to request the "Love of My Life" singer's doula services, at least not yet.

"(If) the money gets tight, then we'll see," she joked.

A champion for Black women and free thinking, she's not only in an era of reinvention, but expansion. She's entered the cannabis industry partnering with Cookies, arguably the world's most recognizable legal marijuana brand. Her idea for a line first formed in the early 2000s, but it became a reality about four years ago after researching the budding mainstream industry.

Badu oversaw everything from the marketing to the packaging for her "That Badu" line, which includes pre-rolls packaged to resemble tampons.

"Everything you see from her line is her. She came up with the design. She came up with the concepts," said Berner, founder of Cookies and mentor to Badu on the industry. He said she inspires other women "to get in the (cannabis) game…women love Erykah Badu. They look up to her. They respect her."

Draped in Afrocentric garb including statuesque headwraps and ankh jewelry, Badu teleported into the music scene in 1997 with her debut album, "Baduizm." It earned her a best new artist Grammy nomination and a best R&B album win. A pioneer of the '90s neo-soul movement with contemporaries like Maxwell, D'Angelo and Jill Scott, Badu crafted soulful classics like "On & On,""Tyrone,""Bag Lady,""Didn't Cha Know" and "Window Seat." Her last official project was 2015's "But You Caint Use My Phone" mixtape.

"I'm always working on new music. I don't know when I'll put it out, but I'm waiting for the right time," said the 2018 Soul Train Legend honoree. "I like to feel necessary for my real audience. My real audience is trees and wind and rain, air -- ancestors and things like that."

Badu says music is the star that her other businesses orbit around.

"Everything is vibration and sound, from the sound of the birds that I've heard since I was a child… (to) the clothes I wear -- the clothes in my Marni line all have bells on them," explained the Dallas native, who still resides in the city. "So, if I associate everything with music, it's very easy for me to create...there's a variety of things I listen to throughout the day, from wind chimes in the morning to Brent Faiyaz in the afternoon to Bach -- I mean, there's just so many different things. I just love music and frequency. It is my therapy."

One of her most impactful musical contributions didn't come from a hit, but from the lesser-known "Master Teacher Medley" on 2008's "New Amerykah Part One (4th World War)" album. Produced by Shafiq Husayn, that song is largely credited with reintroducing the term "stay woke" -- with collaborator Georgia Anne Muldrow chanting those words -- to a new generation.

"From the time they started using it for Black Lives Matter (social protests), it was out of my hands because it kind of doesn't really belong to us anymore," said Badu, who describes the phrase as a person's heighted awareness of everything going on around them.

However, when conservatives made the term a political lightening rod, Badu decided to speak out.

"It got a little out of hand. That's why I had to say something about it, because people were starting to use it as a weapon," she continued. "If it gets into the wrong hands - I've gotta interfere and bring it back in."

Badu, who has an upcoming Funko Pop! figure that sold out during pre-order, is prepping for a highly anticipated 25-date tour kicking off this month. Yasiin Bey, the hip-hop star formerly known as Mos Def, will join her for the "Unfollow Me" tour.

"I just want people to follow their own heart," said the active social media user, giggling at the cheekiness of the title. "It's about your journey."

As Badu, who will appear in the upcoming film "The Piano Lesson" starring Samuel L. Jackson and John David Washington, continues her own odyssey, her outlook is one of gratefulness and optimism.

"When I open my eyes in the morning, I say, 'Still here! Got another chance today do some good (expletive), create some great (expletive) -- be challenged by people and make the right choices. Another chance to discriminate between things that are useful in my brain (and) thoughts that are not," she revealed. "That's woke. That's awareness -- knowing that there is adversity, but also using the tools that you have to navigate through your world."

Erykah Badu lights a stick of incense and gets the energy in the tour bus set up right before reclining on the sofa to chat about her part in Lilith Fair 2010 and the second installment of her ongoing album project, New Amerykah Part Two: Return of the Ankh.

But first, a quick tour of the space which she and her two children call home during the remaining dates of the Sarah McLachlan roadshow.

Erykah Badu chats backstage at Lilith Fair Back to video

“You know, last time on Lilith, I was the only one with a baby, my Seven Sirius” says Badu. “This time, it’s a playground.”

Similar then, to her new album. Where New Amerykah Part One: 4 th World War was an expression of her political mood, Return of the Ankh taps into the her emotional and spiritual side. She says that the reason for doing it this way was natural flow.

“I had all these songs, and they just needed to be split into two albums because they only worked that way. I can’t tell you if there are going to be more parts coming; I let it happen on its own.”

Tapping into this natural rhythm has played a key role in her entire career. So too has been assuming the character to go with the point in time. Born Erica Wright in Dallas, TX., she came to the first phase of fame as Apples the Alchemist, freestyling on the radio station 90.9 FM KNON. A spiritual awakening and tapping into African past brought out Erykah – ‘kah’ is Kemetic (ancient Egyptian) for vital human energy – while Badu was her fave skat singing riff. She admits to having other aliases including Sheeba when I suggest that perhaps there should be an African-American female artist tour called Sheeba Fair.

Essential reading for hockey fans who eat, sleep, Canucks, repeat.

“You know we did that back in 2001 with me, Jill Scott and Macy Gray and played a series of shows and it was a great experience. But for now,  I’m just loving being here and experiencing all the energy of Lilith Fair again.”

When queried on the fact that she is the one artist representing urban music at the Vancouver event and the lone non-white face in the crowd, she doesn’t bat an eye about it. The tour is McLachlan’s to book and the musical line-up what it is. Her set with her 12-piece band is a fluid, exciting and fully grooving experience that will be the only one of its kind all day long.

“Bring it on, I’m happy to just share my thing with the people out there and create a great experience. It’s great to be here and touring with Sarah again. I have to tell you, that woman is wild.”

So where you might expect a bit of bristle, instead just more of the smooth soul love vibe comes out in the discussion. It isn’t about colours or genders for Badu. Much more so, it’s about freeing the creative spirit and tapping into it for a free-flowing journey on stage. Getting to slide in new gems such as “Window Seat” right alongside Baduizm classics such as “Rimshot” and introduce a whole new generation to one of the most refreshing new soul artists of the past two decades.

Toss in the developing concern of her Control Freq Records label which is geared to start releasing some other artists in future. All in all, life couldn’t be better for this talented singer who has always worked to the tune of her own tune. Well, that and her top tour bus jams, including Michael Jackson, Joni Mitchell and the one and only Pink Floyd.

Neo-soul singer/songwriter Erykah Badu (born February 26th, 1971) has become one of the most praised artists in R&B and soul, drawing comparisons with Billie Holiday with her vocal talents.

Born and raised in Dallas, Texas, US, Badu studied at a school of arts where she cultivated her musical abilities, growing up with a love for 70s soul and 80s hip hop. Her first break came whilst she was working as a teacher and part-time singer, when she opened for D'Angelo in 1994. Her performance caught the attention of D'Angelo's manager, Kedar Massenburg, who was so impressed that he signed her to his label, Kedar Entertainment, before then arranging for Badu to record a cover of Marvin Gaye and Tami Terrell's duet, "Precious Love."

Badu's debut album, "Baduizm," arrived in 1997, finding fans with her bass-heavy R&B and her emotive, delicate vocals. The album was produced by Massenburg and also featured members of the Roots on several tracks. Her first single, "On & On" topped the R&B charts, with the album also peaking at the top spot. The album also faired well in the mainstream pop charts, bolstered by high profile support slots with R&B stars as well as hip hop acts, including Wu Tang Clan.

She returned to the studio in 2000, recording her sophomore release, "Mama's Gun," which utilized the production talents of Badu herself, James Poyser, Bilal and Jay Dee, scoring a hit single with "Bag Lady." Badu followed "Mama's Gun" a year later with 2003's EP, "Worldwide Underground." Badu pushed her sound towards a heavier, more abstract neo-soul with 2008's "New Amerykah, Pt.!: 4th World War," which featured members of Sa-Ra and Georgia Anne Mulldrow. The album was a huge success, peaking at number two on the Billboard 200, with this stylistic move continuing with 2010's "New Amerykah, Pt. 2: Return of the Ankh," although being a more light-hearted affair. Following this release, Badu has featured on a number of recordings with various artists, including Bonobo, Tyler the Creator, and Flying Lotus.

Live-Bewertungen

On the last day of the year, I’ve generally stayed at home with candles lit and music on, while writing and reflecting on the upcoming year. My plans would have probably been the same for 2012, but one person changed all that. Erykah Badu. Upon discovering she was spending her New Year’s Eve in Oakland at the Fox Theatre, I did what any fanatic fan would do – I immediately sent word out that I was going and asked if anyone wanted to join. I feel as though she and I share a special bond. We do have a few things in common – we are both water signs (she’s a Pisces, I'm a Cancer); she also attended my alma mater, Grambling State University. I would love to say that I knew her while I was there. It would be nice if I had bumped into her a time or two on campus and knew she was going to be somebody (at Grambling, the motto is “The place where everybody is somebody,” so I guess all students are somebody). But, alas, we were not on campus together; I believe she left the year before I entered the University. But I do actually know someone who really knows her, so there’s something else we have in common. Enough of the digression. One thing I clearly remember from my Grambling days is listening to Baduizm for the first time in 1997. I was in my last semester, set to graduate and officially become a “grown” woman. Gone would be the safety net of college life; now I had student loans to repay, a car note to worry about, and a job to secure. So in my life walks this woman singing about her cipher moving like a rolling stone, picking her friends like she picks her fruit, and asking who gave anyone permission to rearrange her. And I recall thinking, she's absolutely right on point! Erykah’s lyrics and music were refreshingly different than most R&B of the 90s. While we had Mary J. Blige singing about Real Love over a hip-hop beat, Erykah sang about Next Lifetime and No Love. She was an inspirational change of pace, and I clung on to her every word. I am a lover of everything Badu. When Mama’s Gun was released in 2000, I just knew she wrote many of those songs about my life. From Didn’t Cha Know, to . . . & On to Kiss Me On My Neck, Erykah’s growth was apparent. So, back to her show on Dec. 31, 2012. It’s been 15 years since Baduzim’s debut and Erykah has subsequently released five more albums. Each has showcased an ever-changing Badu, but one thing has remained consistent – Erykah’s live performances. They are NEVER a disappointment. Strolling on stage while her band played a lazy and drawn out version of 20 Feet Tall (it came across as if they were still in sound check), she paused at the microphone, taking in all the audience love, before proclaiming, “My love, what did I do to make you fall so far from me?” At the end of the song (and come to think of it, she did this on every song), Erykah struck a warrior/goddess pose. The next three songs (The Healer/Hip Hop, Me and My People) are all from New Amerykah: Part One (4th World Order) – the one album whose meaning I’m still working on grasping. This provided me, however, the perfect opportunity to stop and do some video recording. Playing On & On and . . . & On back to back, Love of My Life (An Ode to Hip Hop) followed with a surprise appearance by Oakland’s own Raphael Saadiq who, according to Erykah, provided the base line for the song. (Side note, I normally am up dancing to this song, but I sacrificed this time so I could record this performance for my readers. I’m glad I did.) As the clock neared midnight, the band began the first notes of Danger. About half way through the song, a count-down appeared on the screen behind the stage and we all stopped, screamed happy New Year, and went back to partying. During Back in the Day (Puff), Erykah exclaimed, “Now is the opportunity for you to smoke,” as if that hadn’t been already occurring. At some point, she took her shoes off and ended the night with Didn’t Cha Know, the first verse from Out My Mind, Just in Time (the one song I just had to hear) and Bag Lady, which I think was an appropriate song to finish with because in the new year, I definitely will be working on letting the bags go!

Perhaps it was my fault for having high expectations... To kick off a month of festivities celebrating my wife's birth, I surprised her with tickets to Erykah Badu. She has seen her perform in the past in Memphis, but this was my first time and I had heard wonderful reviews... that she puts on an amazing show; commands the audience in a way only Aretha Franklin and Janis Joplin did. Tonight was not the case. The opening act, Ro James, was meh. I congratulate him for pursuing his dream (if only everyone did that), but his show sucked for the most important reason. The sound was horrible. I have always feared this was the state of most hip hop concerts... That there is no way to get the live sound to imitate CD quality... Or the people working the sound are unknowledgeable, or the equipment is subpar... For whatever reason, the sound quality was horrible. On a positive note, he performed a song about asking consent when hooking up with a woman and I think that is a strong message that more men need to share with other men. So, overall, he gets a favorable review.

Erykah Badu was pretty amazing, but overall, the show was meh. I could have saved $165 (total cost for 2, $62 tickets and service fees). The Landers Center in Southaven, Mississippi is a horrible venue. The drink and food lines were incredibly long, as if they were understaffed, though the restrooms were clean and never crowded.

Erykah's voice was good and sounded like she is taking care of herself, but she did get tired. Did a few old songs as well as some new ones. She came on a little late, which allowed us to stand in the longer than usual line for snack... only to begin right when we were close to the front. Her back up band was really good. They played one set. She did not really engage with us, the audience. A few songs after mentioning that she was tired, she finished and left the state.

Oh yeah, and did I mention that she was performing in Mississippi, but kept calling it Memphis. While Southaven is in the Memphis metropolitan statistical area, it is still Mississippi and so not Memphis!

In conclusion, I am glad I saw her perform. I am happier that I was able to spend a wonderful evening with my wife. Will I pay to see her perform again? Most likely not, though I love her music.

So she pulled a Lauren Hill Last night at the Brooklyn Bowl. My Girlfriend was really looking forward to see he for Post valentines day. We paid 17 Dollars for parking $ 100 dollars for drinks ..we stood in a huge line to get in and get our tickets on the ticket the show time is 8PM .. ( Figured she would be a litle bit after that no big deal ) standing room only were are all packed in like sardines.. no opening band.. 1 hour goes by , no Erykah 2 hours go by no Erykah, 2 hours and 45 go by no Erykah ...3 hours no body even came out to greet all these people who have paid good money and have been standing waiting for over 3 HOURS past show time.there were drinks being poured down from the upper balcony and started getting really ghetto in there.. People started booing and a bunch of people left to get refunds.. Brookyln Bowl was very helpful with the refunds but someone there should have been wise enough to apologize for the delay..fter we left she finally took the stage after 11: 30 PM played for about an hour.. By far the worst concert experience ever.. I really hope Brooklyn Bowl holds her responsible and takes out the refunded ticket cost out of her pay..I will never buy another ticket to see Miss Ba.. I really was looking forward to going to the brooklyn bowl tainted my first experience but I will go back because they did offer a refund ..I feel very sorry for that poor lady who was refunding all those tickets.

One of the most acclaimed R & B singers Erykah Badu has been touring extensively since her beginnings in the mid-90's. Her soulful sound has captivated fans around the world and her shows are almost always guaranteed to sell out so the opportunity to see her perform live feels even more special.

Often criticised for arriving onstage late, Erykah walks on to the atmospheric setting and the audience fall deadly silent as herself and each of her band are illuminated by singular spotlights. Standing for a moment to indulge in the sight before her, Badu smiles broadly before taking to a synth pad and beginning the fragmented '20 Feet Tall'. Her biggest international hit 'On & On' is dropped midset and given a jazz style makeover which sounds great with the freestyle instrumentals.

Erykah uses her own voice as an instrument as she performs vocal acrobatics cheered on by the crowd. Her own backing band keep the rhythm and pace whilst Badu freestyles making every concert feel original. A tender rendition of 'Next Life' and the ever popular 'Bag Lady' leave the audience satisfied.

I absolutely LOVEEEEEE Erykah Badu, but her timing is awful, the show began at 8 and she showed up at about 10, maybe 10:30 because there was a performing act that came on before and I lost track of time but that's just not okay to paying people expecting a show to be at least two hours and only amounted up to about one. However, her energy and presence is awesome, once she showed up I couldn't even be mad anymore I was just so happy to be experiencing her live and in color, she has such a colorful personality and truly knows how to engage her audience and that's great. I do realize she was there to promote her mixtape but I also think it was a bit too premature since it dropped so recently and no one really knew all the material or could sing along which I felt she could sense and went back to her old hits and then the crowd was really into it, I just wish I could get more out of the concert. There were definitely a few more songs I would have LOVED to hear, other than that she's an awesome performer.

Erykah Badu is a high energy performer. Her band was truly talented and her background singers took this performance to the next level! They all rocked it! Only good things to say about this woman's showmanship and professionalism. Show started on time and the vibes were amazing. The only downside of this excursion was the venue. I flew 500 miles to see this show and because of the security at the venue we missed the first 3 songs in the set and had to stand in the pouring rain for 2 hours before we could get inside. The Observatory North Park really needs to rethink their security procedures. It's not a well planned system at all. I considered leaving and asked about a refund, but was told this wasn't possible. All in all I'm glad I stayed for the show because it really lifted my spirits after the security fiasco, but I'll never see another show at this venue. Not for all of the money in the world.

DISAPPOINTING!!!

I live in Austin, TX, I took the day off, drove up 35, checked into my hotel, had a SUPERB dinner at Fleming’s in Plano, TX, drove down to The Bomb Factory, paid $20 to park in a lot at Malcolm X & Taylor, walked to the venue, got through security, got my ticket scanned at 7:50 PM CST.

Festival seating, no seats!!

Act # 1 (Techno DJ), Act # 2 (DC drummer), Dead Prez (3 songs)

I purchased a $30 T-shirt for my daughter

We tried to hold up until Ms. Badu made her stage appearance.

We left the venue at 11:10 PM CST

I Love Ms. Badu, but last night was VERY UNPROFESSIONAL!!

Have always and will always love Erykah’s contribution to music BUT... she takes her fans in Dallas for granted. Tickets stated doors open at 7pm show starts at 8pm. Opening act didn’t start until 9. She came out during his set to say hello, so she clearly was at the venue but she made her fans wait until after 12am to hear her perform. I don’t know of anyone worth waiting that long. There were people who left without seeing her. Disappointed Ms. Badu You may be the envy of the women and rule the men but I’ll just listen to the music from the comfort of my home in the future.

This was one of the best experiences I've had in my entire life! It was amazing. I'm a huge fan and she DID NOT disappoint.. She covered various albums and even went as far to join other melodies from other songs into the hooks of her songs. Her voice was so off the charts that I had to hold my chest cause I didn't think my heart could stay intact during her high notes. Haha, I will DEFINITELY be going to her concerts whenever she comes back to the area. Thanks SongKick for making your platform available to me.

The show was just ok for me. I couldn't get over the fact that she did not come on until 9:30 when the show was supposed to start at 8. This was my first time and last time attending a concert of hers. My time is valuable just like the artist and if any artist cannot respect their fans I would suggest the fans stop supporting their artist. My fiancee seen get years ago at the beginning of her career and she was on time. Money can really change a person. Sad.
