In case you’ve been wondering what the mystical Erykah Badu has been up to lately since becoming knocked up by her boo Jay Electronica…well, she’s simply chill-axin. Sitting patiently and waiting on that bambino to drop. Ms. Badu recently hit up her MySpace blog to update you guys on the progress of her fetus…

Erykah Badu ain’t playin with y’all youngstas.  No…for real. She ain’t!  Rumors have been circulating the net that she is pregnant by current beau, Jay Electronica.  Badu is being criticized by her choice to raise yet another child out of wedlock as well as carrying a third man’s child ~ the first two were fathered by Andre Benjamin (aka Andre 3000) and Tracy Currey (aka the D.O.C.) ~ and she is not taking it laying down (so to speak ).   Anyway…Erykah has written a message to combat all her haters and critics (I imagine her sitting in full military gear with an AK-47 slung over her should while writing this…)

“HOW DARE YOU DISRESPECT THE QUEENDOM…AND MY CHILDREN AND MY INTELLIGENCE.”

Erykah Badu performed last night along with the Roots at the Fox Theatre in Detroit.   I’m sure the show was spectacular as always….but that wig? Only Erykah can…

It’s official…we always knew Erykah Badu had powers, we just didn’t know what they were!   Ms. Badu recently revealed that she is a certified holistic healer and has studied studied reiki – a type of healing therapy. 

“I became a second-degree reiki practitioner. I’m not just a recording artist. I do many things and try to put my hand in many places.” (Source)

I ain’t touching that last statement… but Erykah never holds her tongue!  She recently gave advice about makin it in the industry…the best one “get azz implants, tongue kiss another woman and do some hoe sh*t”…

Ganked from Crunk & Disorderly

Erykah has a new boo! Jay Electronica. He’s an artist on her new record label.

“I started a label, Control Freq Records, on the strength of him. I heard his music through a friend of mine, Supernova. And he brought him over to my house and we’ve been inseparable from that day because we just have the same biorhythms,” says Badu.

You go girl! He’s a cutie. I just hope he can withstand that “Badu-ism” thing she puts on ‘em. Y’all know they say she “turned out” Dre and Common. Watch out Jay…

Erykah Badu (and her big azz fro) was spotted performing last night on VH1’s Soul Stage at St. Annes Warehouse in Brooklyn, New York.  If these pics tell the story, that performance was off da hook! 

The gossip mill has also been buzzing this week about who’s the daddy of Erykah’s 3 year old daughter, Puma.   Word on the street is that it’s either D.O.C. or Andre 3000…

All I know is that Erykah is the ish…who care’s who the baby daddy is…!

Peace be with you!  Erykah Badu traveled to Tel-Aviv a few days ago to perform her final concert prior to the release of her new album, New AmErykah.   Erykah made some interesting comments about her support of Louis Farrakhan and how she crossed the water to bring some light…or sumthing like that.  She also said that she identifies with Palestinian hip-hop (although she couldn’t name any Palestinian hip-hop artists)…

For almost two hours, she swayed in front of a center-stage mic stand with a small table to either side of her, one holding a laptop computer and a kettle, the other with a drum machine/sampler trigger board. More about laid-back, regal poise than about traditional verse-chorus pop soundbytes, it was Badu’s distant yet powerful presence presiding over intense grooves that dominated the evening.

Badu wowed the Tel Aviv crowd early with “The Healer,” a powerful new shamanistic single off of Nu AmErykah, proclaiming, “Hop hop is bigger than religion / Hop hop is bigger than my nigger / Hop hop is bigger than the government” in between verses about toppling Babylon (”The people say reboot refresh,” etc.). The set culminated with Badu taking us “waaay back,” brandishing a cowbell and meandering through a medley of old-school rap classics (like Slick Rick and Doug E Fresh’s immortal “La Di Da Di”) before explaining to us that all peoples are truly one and heading home.  (source)

Erykah also commissioned a poster for her visit to Tel-aviv, which features a large hamsa  (a traditional Middle Eastern good-luck charm) that appears to be growing out of her hair.  At the bottom, the words for peace in Hebrew and Arabic appear side by side.
