erykahbadu newalbum

Erykah Badu speaks to Jet magazine on why her new album took 5 yrs. to create:

“I’m more like an oven than a microwave. I don’t quickly serve something up just because people expect me to. I serve it up when it is well done, cooked

and ready. I go by the lifeline, not by the deadline. I believe in lifelines

not deadlines. I do it when I feel it.”

Leave it to Erykah to come up with a quirky and clever analogy like that. We’re actually looking forward to her album dropping Tuesday.

Thanks Jeanine

Eryka and am looking forward to her music as well. she was on 106 yesterday though talkin kinda crazy. i couldn’t remember if she was always like that or not. it just looked like it was takin a lot for her to get her sentences out. idk…somethin was just off. i’ll just tune in to her performances from now on rather than her interviews

  • Mel

    Sorry to inform you that quote is NOT from Ms. Badu. Jill Scott was quoted as saying the same thing when asked why it took so long before she recorded the “Golden” cd. Check your facts people and give credit where it is due.

  • andrea

    awesome comparison!

  • Nic

    she is not all that. she is basically spilling what seal spills: they work slow. simple as that. next!

  • kigali

    I love Erykah. I just been downloading her old stuff and watching her vids on YouTube. My only problem with her is that she seems to fetishize African culture or atleast what she thinks it is. She still my girl and when she comes to LONDON… All hell naw. Its on.

  • Ahhhh I Am The Beast

    Feed me weave or feed me weed. I am untamed I need a leash.

    It’s taking me over! One big afro wig at a time. It’s taking me over! One big afro wig at a time.

  • SMonique

    I second Mel’s comment. Miss Jill Scott said that 3 years ago.

  • MJ

    SHE NEED TO LAY OFF THE MEDS AND WEAVES.
