Tyrone is so specifically black in its expression. That's what I love about it's delivery. She's talking to sistas who know or have dealt with a similar situation regarding a trifling man. The interesting thing is that everyone was mad at Tyrone, when in reality, Tyrone is the friend...not the trifling boyfriend lol.

Imagine being only one studio album into your career and releasing a single so powerful in its relatable truth that the live album it is attached to (which has no other new material) sells five million copies. Power of Badu.

Favorite Erykah Badu song!!🙅🏾‍♀️

YES! Ms. Erykah wasn't playin' around with this song at all. When she SANGS, your ears better be ready for it. LOL Please also react to "Love of My Life" feat. Common and Common's "Come Close" feat. Mary J. Blige. They both are truly anthems and a must-listen. 🙏

"It's never a little cash though" -Jack, 2020 She did guest vocals (along with Eve who is also an amazing artist) on another fire track by The Roots "You Got Me". Very unique melody and with QuestLove on the drums (percussive genius) and the flow of the bars... highly recommed, Jack.

This song was a mantra to us back then because quite a few of us had wastrels as boyfriends. She spoke to us on an emotional level. She had and has much love from us. She helped us with our " grown woman ".

Hey Jack, if you would like to react to more neo-soul, listen to Jill Scott- the way. You’ll also like songs like “he loves me” live or regular and “ a long walk.” If you want more erykah, “Outside the game” and “Lifetime”. Those erykah video have Andre 3000 in it at the time when they were in a relationship. One more person you can listen to, or I can say group is Floetry- Say Yes. They’re a amazing group with Neo-soul.

Jack, Erykah was very, involved in drama and a school of the arts before breaking out into music. She is definitely charismatic in her appeal. Her voice is just next level. When she first came on the scene with her first video and single, "On and On" I didn't even see the tv screen. I heard her voice, stopped what I was doing in another room and went to see who she was. Her voice was unlike any artist I had ever heard before:)

Her entire live album is a masterpiece

Michael Jackson ben reaction. It's a song about a pet rat. He was like 12 years old when he sang it. He broke record with that song being the youngest artist to go number one. Also song won a Golden globe and was nominated for an oscar. He became the youngest oscar performer.. another record

"I'ma see how y'all groove to this..." how can you not love this QUEEN. I love how you picked up on her comedic energy and you've only done 2 of her songs. As always so perceptive & observant. This song hit SO hard when it first came out, had never heard anything quite like it. Can't wait for your intro to Jill Scott and more neo-soul like Maxwell and Floetry.

OMG!!! I didn't know you reacted to this 😱 this was my ISH 🤣🤣🤣🤣

Its rare now where lyrics can carry you through a song with such a vivid story being told. This is one of my faves. She's brilliant. 🌻💜

Jack, you need to do Didnt Cha Know, You Got Me by The Roots Featuring Erykah, 4 Leaf Clover, Otherside of the Game, and the original and uptempo version of Bag Lady.

Window seat, Bump it, and I want You are some great ones to add to the list.

Lol you know they say don't look her in the eyes like Prince. She puts a spell on people. Male and female. And the neo-soul sector of R&B is everything. Ledisi, Jill Scott, Amil Leriuex, Heather Hadley, Angie Stone, Raheem DeVaughn and too many more to name. Really good stuff.

Back in the day is a mid- tempo , funky track, to check out. Other side of the game and Next lifetime are smooth too. Neo Soul is an amazing genre to discover.

I love the fact you got deep rhythm brother you really grooved to this cut

The background singer's name is N'Dambi...she is a stellar talent in her own right and has released little known solo projects.

erika badu - next lifetime

This was the woman’s anthem for a long while

She's phenomenal. Takes you out of your body to some next level. Can vouch that she's incredible live.

She's a goddess. i watched her live,, was the best concert ever..

She is WONDERFUL in concert. We thoroughly enjoyed our experience of a Erykah Badu concert.

Jack, you are discovering the treasure chest of musicians born to parents from the 70s 80s and 90s. Keep discovering the gifts of the souls born from their magical parents

She is hilarious and nobody already know that she was literally a rapper before becoming a singer! she also dances and everything lol please react to her video with common!

I love her! You have to react to her songs The Other Side Of The Game, Next Lifetime, and Bag Lady.

If you like Erykah. You’re going to love Jill Scott.

Please react to Erykah Badu's "Bag Lady", "Didn't Cha Know", and "Green Eyes".

Hey Jack! I am glad you are dipping your toes into neo-soul. Erykah Badu and Jill Scott are the QUEENS of this genre. You have just scratched the surface of Ms. Badu. I am afraid to turn you on to Jill Scott. React to Jill's "A Long Walk", "The Way", or "We Need You". There are soooo many. Take the leap down the rabbit hole. Peace...Be Safe!

Please do "Next Lifetime" and "Didn't Cha Know".. Those are other big hits of hers. The beat on both of these songs makes you just want to chill and mellow out great lyrics

Erykah is amazing. Absolutely love this performance too. That last line cracks me up everytime! Please do 1995 MTV Michael Jackson😁

Ms.Badu is the truth. I grew up in Cincinnati and we used to have a thing called The Jazz Festival. It was a weekend, Fri thru sun event. Friday was for newer acts. Sat was established acts. Sunday was the OG always ending with Frankie Beverly & Maze. Erykah performed at a Saturday show one year. She's such a performer she wouldn't stop. Like they literally had to shut her mic off and low key usher her off LMFAO! ❤💖❤ I LOVE HER!!!!

Eryka badu always touches me!!🎶💕

Hi Jack!! Please react to Erykah Badu feat. Andre 3000 from Outkast on "Other side of the game." Fire track & they were is a relationship at that time.👍😍

Well Duhhhhh!!! what is the olddd olddddd saying "Diamonds are a girl's best friend" lollll!!!! Ms. Badu did her thing on this one.......loved her vibes....."listen padnah yuh bettah call Tyrone" "call him" sound like a Caribbean woman with that dialect.

This was the very first Erykah Badu song I ever heard I was 16 when this came out and I was hooked from the first time I heard it💯🎤🔊🎶💙🔥

This song used make me laugh as a kid. But love it my mom favorite song...

Love this song!! Love her vibe

I watched her preform this when it was fresh off the notebook on the Smokin grooves tour. She is amazing live.

This whole album is phenomenal! I love Searching.

the song that made me an Erykah fan in 2002

THANK YOU! THANK YOU! THANK YOU! This song is on repeat on my playlist. The album version (which is a little bit longer) is also good, but this live version is so theatrical, so sassy and sooooooo good. Mrs. Badu is "a little" pregnant here, but nonetheless, she is serving us greatness. Jack, your review was perfect. Thank you again.

Jack you do know that E. Badu has a child with Andre 3000/ Three stakes. I think there sons name is Seven. Ole head.

I found you reactions a year later. I like them. Truly authentic. I hope you watch or listen to these a couple time after your initial reaction.

Great job keep it up we love you ❤️

U out did yourself on this good job!

My man Jack was feeling attacked! Lmaoo its cool man all the fellas was when this came out but its still 🔥

Another album you need in your life is this Erykah Badu: Live - it’s life changing.

Please please do yourself the pleasure of watching the Versuz between her and Jill Scott. Please. It was incomparable, the love and respect between those women.

"She didn't move"... LOL! She's VERY pregnant. Dave Chappelle described her as "a hilarious person" (in his Block Party). Q.U.E.E.N. by Janelle Monae & Erykah Badu is a great song w/ a creative video.

Her performances are always great

Love your reactions man! She’s from Dallas she went to school for ballet so man she can dance.

You gotta call on tyrooooone....call em 🤣🤣🤣

Mint Condition - Pretty Brown Eyes is a must!

U r musicly mature beyond ur years👏🏽👏🏽

Awesome pick!!❤❤❤👏👏👏👍👍👍

Erykah Badu- Other Side Of The Game Erykah Badu- Didn’t Ya Know Erykah Badu- Bag Lady

..... BACKGROUND CHIC WIT DA COPPER FRO IS N' DAMBI...SHE IS AN ARTIST HERSELF ...1ST ALBUM? NIIICE!...LOOK HER UP 😎

Hey Jack! New subscriber here. That backup singer with the ‘fro is NDambi . She put out some underground stuff in the 2000’s.

Anita Baker, You bring me joy and Angel. Patti Labelle, You are my friend and Somebody loves you baby. Rick James and Tina Marie, Fire and Desire. Chakra Khan, Ain't no body loves you better.

The Background singers are N’Dambi Blue (the one with the Afro) and Karon Bernod both well respected singers in their own right.

They said Ms. Badu would often come on stage and her along with the band would freestyle songs.

In a time like this,where this nation wakes up to another police brutality in Indianapolis, it'll be much appreciated if you can put this track. The name is brown baby by Nina Simone. Nina Simone was a great artist! A women head of her game. A civil rights advocate, Nina never backed down for a fight, especially when she transform it in music. Please and thank you Peace. My black brothers and sisters lives matter!!!!!! ✊✊✊✊✊✊✊

“You better call that B and tell her you’re not coming over. Whoa whoa whoa. You can’t use my phone.” - Eddie Murphy “Delirious”. Great reference by Erykah.

Erykah badu "other side of the game" is another gem of a song!!!

You’re literally the only reaction channel I watch. If you like neo-soul you should definitely listen to Moonchild - Cure!! It’s SUCH A GOOD SOOOONG

My mom is obsessed with this song

I agree we be starting off asking for your fries and eventually ask you to be paying off our 'little' cc debt 🤣.

Yes Jack! 👏👏👏 This is favorite song to do when do karaoke at home. Can't tell me nothing lol. Ms. Badu is on a whole nother level. But that's neo soul. Lol you stay researching 🤣 you gonna be a scholar soon. 😆 Other good ones are Otherside of the game Didn't Cha Know Back in the day Love of My Life "Intro" (World Keeps Turning) no need to react to this since it's an intro.

Yes love Neo soul! Please react to The way- Jill Scott

😍very unique this women, 💖
