Erykah Badu is a singer-songwriter, record producer, and actress from the United States. While pregnant with Seven, Badu recorded her first live album, Live, and its release coincided with his birth. On November 18, 1997, the album debuted at number four on the US Billboard 200 and number one on the US Billboard Top R&B/Hip-Hop Albums.
The RIAA certified the album twice platinum for sales of more than two million copies. “Tyrone,” the album’s lead single, was released in October 1997 and became another R&B hit. Lyrically, “Tyrone” is a song about a selfish, cheap, and inattentive boyfriend.
Is Erykah Badu a feminist?
Many would say that you’ve paved the way for female artists in the music industry. Do you see yourself as a feminist? “I don’t see myself as feminist, I see myself as humanist”, Erkyah Badu replied. I try to be as honest as I can and encourage that quality in my art.
