Baduizm Live This live CD is the bomb and one of the best in my collection. It's so personal, so raw...I can't describe. Her talking to the audience makes it all the more fun to listen to and sets the mood. All the music is awesome, but Other Side of the Game really does something extra for me. Her tribute to funk and Chaka Khan was nice. Tyrone is fun live, but the studio version sucks. JUst love this baby. I wonder if Prince is into Badu? He always talks about lesser artists like Alicia Keys and such, but does he ever mention Badu? Keys has nothing on Badu.

I've got a bootleg-recording of a Dallas afterparty-jam (thanks to Calhounsq!)where Prince jams together with Erykah....so, I think he digs her! | |

one of the rare times a concert cd outpersforms the original. she really showed she has some vocal chops..shame she hasn't really showed that range off since.  you look better on your facebook page than you do in person  | |

Hi doctormario...
Don´t you know that she performed at the second celebration at PaisleyPark? And P & the NPG covered Badu´s Didn´t Cha Know during the ONA tour. I saw Badu at a concert in Hamburg...great show, even though I´m glad she stopped all that sermonizing and pseudo teaching, trying to enlighten ppl with some weird, halfbaked theories. Too much ego. but I love all her cds. " I´d rather be a stank ass hoe because I´m not stupid. Oh my goodness! I got more drugs! I´m always funny dude...I´m hilarious! Are we gonna smoke?" | |

....and one of her songs on Worldwide Underground pays hommage to 17 Days...(so let the rain come down) " I´d rather be a stank ass hoe because I´m not stupid. Oh my goodness! I got more drugs! I´m always funny dude...I´m hilarious! Are we gonna smoke?" | |

No, I've never heard 17 Days and don't have all of her CD's yet(or PRince's), but I'm working on it. Don't hurt me, I'm a newb. I'm supposed to be stupid. | |

i loves me some erykah, the two times I have seen her live were at the afterparties in dallas.
the last one she was like 8 months pregnant and glowing, the girl sang her ASSSSS off and P was upstairs in the balcony lovin it!! Great exprience, she was on stage with him back in 02, but this time she had the stage to herself.

When Prince came to Dallas the for the first Musicology show, Erykah came on stage during the "dancehall" portion of 'Life O' the Party' and performed Southern Girl. That shit was beautiful!!!!! | |

I have to agree about "Other Side Of The Game". The live version is hypnotic. This CD trumps the original in my opinion. I didn't really care about "Tyrone", but I loved "Next Lifetime" live. Overall I'm glad her label let her drop this. It helped me gain a deeper respect for her abilities as a vocalist. | |

sure, but she hasn't made a good record since Mama's Gun (which really was so-so).....when will her career really take off? Worldwide Underground was as incoherent as an album can get! any news about a new release? | |

Man, I wish I'd been there! he played and sang with her back on 02, yeah it was nice, I was soo close to the stage I was leaning on the monitor speakers  looking up at the man fo real, great great great experience.

, I  that album. Got it as a gift and still play it 'til this day.
The whole disc is quality, but my standouts are: Stay (she did a remarkable job) Boogie Nights (this grooved) Next Lifetime Apple Tree Tyrone The Other Side of The Game (I love how it opens up instrumentally) | |

That Chaka/Rufus cover solidified her as a kick-ass vocalist. | |
