Can't get around the fact that I'd like this album waaaaaaaaaay better if it didn't have the umpteenth reiteration of "Intimate Friends."

What is up with the Rick James/ Patrice Rushen/ Peaches & Herb beads she's been rocking lately lol

video is slightly corny, but it's earned since there are very few albums less revealing than Mama's Gun...what word does the purple blood spell out?
I'm definitely thinking now that Badu is a high priestess of Funk. (Here is a handy link to a thread where Mark Sinker explains how George Clinton used The Process Church of the Final Judgement as a sort of template to turn Funk into an alternative system of faith and beliefs.)

i hate not having liner notes. anyone know who plays drums on agitation? or is it sampled from the original track?
― rinse the lemonade (Jordan), Tuesday, 30 March 2010 23:49 (fourteen years ago) link
and the rest of the record (window seat aside) for that matter

Agitation is the original track replayed and maybe sweetened a little bit, but I'm pretty sure the drums were left alone.

I love having liner notes because I bought the CD. $9.98 at Target, what what.

Me too. I will never not buy a physical copy of a new album by Erykah Badu.
― queen frostine (Eric H.), Wednesday, 31 March 2010 02:24 (fourteen years ago) link
she was kinda distracted and terrible looking on 106
― forksclovetofu, Wednesday, 31 March 2010 02:34 (fourteen years ago) link
She discusses not always looking so awesome IN THE LINER NOTES. I am not kidding.
― T Bone Streep (Cave17Matt), Wednesday, 31 March 2010 02:35 (fourteen years ago) link
She sort of calls herself ugly in the liner notes.
― queen frostine (Eric H.), Wednesday, 31 March 2010 02:36 (fourteen years ago) link
don't get me wrong I think she looks amazing most of the time, but wtf kind of stoner magician look is thishttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8g1heejCbk0
― forksclovetofu, Wednesday, 31 March 2010 02:39 (fourteen years ago) link
Fall In Love (Your Funeral) is such the jam, must've played it 5-6 times at work today--sort of the successor/sequel to "Soldier" from the last one (another Riggins/Badu collab):

In Dallas, some were upset at the video's use of the iconic Kennedy setting. Ron Rice, who gives "JFK walking tours" in Dealey Plaza, told the Dallas Morning News that he thought Badu's actions were irresponsible. "It's against the law, and she should be locked up," he said. "If I did that I would already be in jail."
haha yes, let's IMPRISON a woman for being naked. "locked up" lol

i find the idea of his death tourist business a lot more distasteful. ts nudity vs gawking and cameras at an assassination location

Ugh, just saw the anchors of the CBS Early Show talking about this. They sounded like Fox pundits.
― queen frostine (Eric H.), Wednesday, 31 March 2010 12:50 (fourteen years ago) link
wtf @ this being a national - or indeed international - news story
i didn't think it was even that insane a video - i kinda roll my eyes at the idea of conveying a high-minded message via the medium of gettin' naked in a pop video - but given this shit, maybe she had a point. (also, totally didn't clock the location when i watched it.)

Lots of people (in the US, at least) get worked up about public breastfeeding, so of course THIS is a BIG DEAL.
It was "covered" by my LOCAL (Detroit) news, ffs.

I definitely thought "is that the book depository" when the camera panned over it.
