Apparently you hipsters have never encountered Analog girl in a Digital world before.
Folks are FREAKING out about Ms. Badu's new video and how she gets all naked in it, totally disregarding the amazingness and 'isms of the track the video is set too. I haven't heard such a sound since Mama's Gun. There's also the interesting and artistic comments trying to making
Not to mention the fact that one should not be surprised or overwhelmed at the fact that she does strip. Listen, this woman is my heroine. I've been listening to her since I was 8--she is completely from another planet, another galaxy, another time. She'll tell you herself. I wouldn't be surprised if she gave birth to an illegal immigrant tye-dye baby jesus with an ankh on its head that threw up the Qu'ran in a bowl of milk, lucky charms style.
And as for the ass---it's just a black woman's ass.
Seriously, I'm uber excited my girl is gracing us with her neo-soul sounds once more, but I'm gonna need the new amerykah audience to get its act together. I'm also gonna need her to get lil Wayne out of the picture. Just saying.
Anyway, if you want to watch the video you'll have to go to her website and click the ankh on her lime green-oozing open purple skull... I'm not making up, those are the instructions.
Love waves and afros,
