video is hot!
Ms. Badu is BACK….
Ms. Jazz, if you ain’t got a comment then shut the ***** up. If you want to advertise then pay for it, you spamming *****.
Erykah Badu could record herself taking a *****, and I still would bump it. Man, she is my favorite Non-Rap artist of all time. She is truly a legend. Im not even mad at people who dislike her, her music is a sweet as Jesus, so I’ll forgive you haters lol. Anyways, man thanks for showing the video some light, cuz it probably won’t make the radio or be played on MTV, BET or VH1 as much as Beyonce or Rhyanna gets played.
WTF was that at the end?
Anyway, video was on point. Song is hot. And Erykah was looking good as hell in those tights in that “***** Shakin” portion. Thumbs up!
Very cute.
OK, I’m feelin the beat on this track, but some of the lyrics are trippin me out:
“I’m in love with a bumble bee…..”???
Get outta here.
I’m just beginning my day at the office and watching the “Honey” readjusted my Monday-mornings-suck attitude. It’s def a look good, feel good, and sound good joint. It’s Loved.
BOUT DAMN TIME!
TIGHT VIDEO!
OH YEAH…..SHE HAS GOTTEN THICK AS HELL!
GREAT JOB ERYKAH!!I am feeling this.
I really enjoyed this video…good job Erykah. Do you sell gift cards…lol!
I like Erykah Badu and her style. I think the video just shows her fans her quirky personality and creative imagination. However I think the song sounds to much like something that she dropped in the past. At least she is back in the studio and back on the mainstream trying to give her fans a lil bit more…which is definately more than I can say about another quirky talent….Lauren Hill.
DO YO DAMN THANG MS. BADU!! THATS WHAT IM TALKIN BOUT…REAL MUSIC, REAL SINGING, REAL TALENT, REAL GROWN FOLKS MUSIC…WE GOT ALICIA, JILL SCOTT, MARY J. B, & NOW MS. BADU??? THIS IS GOING TO BE A GREAT YEAR FOR MY EARS…(just wish “u know who” would just take a break & not release anything else including commercials, spanish cd’s, cell phones, hip hop toys did i miss anything??)
I Love It! I’m glad that she is coming out with a new album! I really like the part of the video where she did the Outkast “Hey Ya” video too.
Average song, AMAZING video…
Loved it! Yeah the song truly isn’t something new, but if it is not broke then don’t fix it! I love EB, and that was a great video.
Loved the song,loved the video. You can tell she really personalizes her music. I would love Erykah & Kanye to do a video together.
She looked really good
Plus it looks like her booty has made a comeback too..
I love this chick welcome back Erykah
This was quirky and fun. I’m glad she’s back.
Dear Bossip,
I cosign. I like the direction you are going promoting natural beauty and talent. Erykah is the bomb. The weaves and ***** shaking are played and must cease.
***** refreshing!
She’s a refreshing alternative to all the weave and ***** shaking.

Very original and authentic. The way music used to feel a lot more before it was corporate controlled hell.
Tell me this chick ain’t super badd*****sssssssss.
I love this chick!!!!!!!!
I am curious so still some celebrities and rich people feel lonely.
I found them on a millionaire&celeb dating site called”CelebMingle.com”last night.
Thank the Lord…True Music for the Soul…
Finally, some real creativity.
It’s been a long time since a video made me go “WOW.”
The throwback album covers, Ohio Players, Grace Jones, Diana Ross etc. was a hot idea…can’t wait for that album on the 26th.
Oh, and will people learn how to spell
D-E-F-I-N-I-T-E-L-Y. You know who you are.
*****ODY CAN DO BADU LIKE YOU DO!!!!

Dig it! Dig it! Dig it!
Look like she found some goodies reachin’ into that hip hop coin purse of hers!
SHES BEAUTIFUL!!
I love me some Badu.. had to watch it again!!
She would turn me out I know it.. she has a reputation of turning her men out..hence Common and Andre 3000
Pretty girl!! If she is a member on blackgirlsconnect.com, she may be the monthly model there!!!
FUNNNNNYYYYYYY!!! loved it
FIYAHHHHHH!!!!!!! And I am loving the throwback tributes to the album covers: Diana Ross, Ohio Players, Chaka and Rufus, Outkast, De La Soul, Grace Jones, En Vogue . . . I’m sure I missed some . . .

Erykah flaunts a genuine creative streak and this video compliments that!

Ooooh, I love Erykah! The song and vid were fiyah!! I can’t wait until her cd comes out. Then, it won’t ever leave the rotation in my car’s cd changer just like her last cd, “Worldwide Underground”.
I love the video..it is a fresh breath of AIR from ***** shaking! GAWWWD! ERYKAH BADU IS BACK BABYYYYYY! I LOVE ME SOME ERYKAH BADU!
I also love the tribute to ANDRE! LOVED IT!
THE SOUNDS HAS TO GROW ON ME BUT I’M LOVING THE VIDEO !!! WHAT YA’LL KNOW ABOUT GRACE JONES ??
Andre has gotten to her
but i love it- though
erykah rocks!
Erykah Badu is sooooooo creative with everything she does! EVERYTHING! You can tell she pays attention to detail with her videos, concerts, etc…
I have never been to a concert but I checked her out on youtube and she is so different, but in a good way. This woman is truly gifted!
@Jennifer
She’s fly in concert too, I saw her and Jill Scott in the same show.
By the way Hot Video!!
That’s tight! She’s the freshest female on the scene right now officially. She’s got another bad cut too called “I Want You”. I think it’s new. Thank you Erykah. Stay fly!
U do U Badu…i’m lovin it! When is the album droppin?
I likes the music — hot as usual!!! But she’s still weird as hell!!!!
I love it! The monkey at the end is too funny, but the album covers (especially EWF) bring back sooooo many memories!
Badu is my girl. Song is dope. Video is dope, not your same ol’ isht. Unfortunately BET will give it little to no play….Better peep it on VH1 Soul peoples.
I love the throwback covers: Rufus featuring Chaka Khan, Grace Jones, Ohio Players, Diana Ross, Earth Wind and Fire.. I love this video and the song!!!
She is weird, but she can get that cause she got talent. Plus i’d beat. If she shows this much creativity to the public, IMAGINE how she’d bless a ***** in the bed.. Hhmmm..
cool video but the transitions made no sense
and wussup with the monkey yo?
BOSSIP did Beyonce take your man?
@lanette, by man, if you are referring to that million dollar bison Beyonce walks around with, I think Bossip would have to kindly decline lol..
It’s a shame how you black people are talking down to an very intelligent and beautiful artist. I bet if she was light and bright, or damn near white, y’all would be all up on her *****, but just because she is true to herself, her heritage, and a does not follow becky’s idea of beauty, you guys clown on her!
GET IT TOGETHER BLACK FOLK!
who is doing that^^^^
WTF is up with that little monkey at the end?
Do u sell gift cards??
wtf…
anywho….i love the song and the video is bangin…u can always count on erykah to be creative….i cant wait for the album to drop!! im still bumpin mamas gun!
@jo, ya i agree i would be dope if erykah and kanye do something together!
finaly!!! thank you for that Ms Badu! some good music.Ps: someone pls tell Ms Hill to drop something too.
Absolutely loved it! Dallas represent

It’s amazingly dope. I love me some Ms. Wright.
