178298, FAVORITE ERYKAH BADU SONG OR ALBUM? Posted by sadehigh2486, Mon Aug-25-08 06:51 PM
WHAT IS YOUR FAVORITE ERYKAH BADU SONG OR ALBUM?
"I GOT A HEAD FULL OF PROBLEMS AND A HAND FULL OF NAPPY ROOTS...." L. BOOGIE

178300, MAMA'S GUN Posted by Lyterall, Mon Aug-25-08 06:57 PM
I think that has been her best body of work to date. Dont really have a favorite track, but Penitentary Philosophy has always been ONE of my many favorites. Defently looking forward to the sequal to New Amerykah. Hope she puts The Healer Remix with Pharoahe Monch on there. Atleast as a bonus or hidden track.

The new album "Stop Looking At Me" coming Winter 2009.... just waite and listen!

She did that shit live a few months ago and had me in tears. I just recently heard the hammond original and like how she used the elements from his track

178777, Baduizm. fave part of the album: Posted by afropuff, Wed Sep-10-08 08:38 PM
the transition between the two songs, Certainly & Four Leaf Clover. That's the sweet spot of the album for me.
but that could change.
oh wait, That Hump = my life.
|
178835, Cosign on "That Hump," Lord knows I'm trying... Posted by OrangeMoon, Fri Sep-12-08 12:24 PM

|
178844, RE: FAVORITE ERYKAH BADU SONG OR ALBUM? Posted by livein76, Fri Sep-12-08 07:17 PM
album: Mama's Gun song: ahh it's too many.. Orange Moon, saw her live in 00 and this year and she DELIVERS each time
but Didn't Cha Know still rocks hard(Dilla(RIP)hit gold with the Tarika Blue sample)
New Amerykah I can listen to with no skipping and it's getting just as much play as Mama's Gun.. damn I love me some Ebi(pt. 2 please come on)
|
178880, RE: FAVORITE ERYKAH BADU SONG OR ALBUM? Posted by sadehigh2486, Sun Sep-14-08 04:33 PM

178944, Kiss Me On My Neck, imo, is a perfect song. Posted by FortifiedLive, Thu Sep-18-08 09:23 AM
and Mama's Gun is damn near perfect altogether.
|
178947, RE: FAVORITE ERYKAH BADU SONG OR ALBUM? Posted by blockonlock, Thu Sep-18-08 12:26 PM
Probably one of the easiest questions ever asked.
New Amerykah Pt. 1
It's just so now and of the moment and appropriate. Yeah, the other albums are great, but New Amerykah is just very forward thinking, very cohesive and inspired. I love The Cell, Twinkle, Soldier, That Hump–the whole fucking album! Can't wait for Pt. 2.
|
178948, Green Eyes Posted by futuristiclyric, Thu Sep-18-08 12:28 PM
or Orange Moon... Either or...
Lady sings the Blues, but Erykah's just so Jazzy... :)

Mama's Gun is the best album of all time by any artist period.
Right now my favorite Erykah joint would be...hmmmm...I Want You?

179016, Love of My Life Posted by NotThinkSo, Sat Sep-20-08 12:32 PM

I still can't get enough of this song. As soon as I hear her go, "Way Back" She's got me!

"green eyes", mama's gun
|
179476, I'm seriously thinking that "Drama"... Posted by soul4thought, Tue Oct-07-08 10:36 PM
is my favorite Erykah Badu song ever (and one of her very best songs, all things considered).
I just rediscovered "Baduizm", an album I was two steps away from hating after listening the first time around, and almost fell over when this song came on.
By far, the best song on the album and one of the most flawless pieces of work she's ever done.
