Out of the long list of reasons for why I love Erykah Badu, the first and most significant one would be the fact that her soul is present in anything she creates. The songs she writes, the music she records and the videos that she films are not created herself for the approval or entertainment of others, but for the expression of her soul.
Take the video for the unforgettable “Out of Mind, Just In Time.” Though simplistic in nature, its evocative, beautiful and compassionate–undeniably Badu.
Still in love with this song…
