3:AM: A Conversation With Erykah Badu 

"Evolving involves elimination." Erykah Badu

“Change the something happened to me… to something happened FOR ME.” ~Erykah Badu ✨✨✨

Erykah Badu wiping Rhapsody’s tears was such a priceless moment, I felt that sweet bond of sisterhood… Powerful 🙌🏾✊🏿

Its refreshing to see two black women talk about love.Seems like love doesn't exist in our culture anymore these days.Salute

Women must learn to love themselves first before anyone else and boundaries are a MUST in all relationships.

I love the way this was filmed.

Erykah's question "What makes you happy?" was intentional. Alchemizing and focusing on the good.

Seeing artists talk to each other is important. The well is empty but the water is unlimited.

Growing hurts so much

You know what I love? I love how visibly human Erykah is and so honest about it.

“Evolution involves elimination” 🔥 those necessary endings are critical to our spiritual, emotional, personal, and financial development!

I don’t know love without motherhood. I felt that in my soul. Motherhood healed me and every day I am so thankful to be her mom ❤.

When Erykah brought up the invisible umbilical cord. Wow. Powerful. Always connected. Rap sharing she had a chance to be a mother & decided not to. What a vulnerable moment. ❤🥺

The real women have entered the chat.

"I didn't know Love until being a mother" - Erykah Badu

Erykah was able to express ALL those things I feel and felt but couldn’t put into words….especially the being a mom part. 💜

I could listen to these two artists talk about life for hours ngl

This video was literally God sent to me. I had to pause it and cry because I heard exactly the words, I needed to text my 20 year old son.. "I love you unconditionally" Thank you for this video

As a long time fan of Rapsody im happy to see this side of her. Loving these conversations.

Elimination was never a negative thing

Badu should have a podcast like this.. w both male n female artist n non artist it's so needed.. Doula

This interview right here is Black excellence.

I’m finna go DJ, you wanna come? Hell yeah! 🔥

This was simply a real authentic woman to woman, heart-to-heart life conversation. And I 100% related to it! ❤️

The, "I would" and "why wouldn't they" was so POWERFUL bc truly, why wouldn't someone suck up all the happiness and love you're giving espically when theyve never experienced love like that before?! Or just when it's a "good thing," why wouldn't they absorb allllllll of it for as long as they could

"Really be dedicated to getting Your lessons as opposed to feeling like a victims; Changing the 'Something happened TO me' to 'Something happened FOR me.'" May all who come across this vid and message be well and remember it's all on Divine purpose, Asé. Sending You all LOVE 🌿

This was a beautiful conversation that was very fruitful and spoke to my soul. The way that you both listened and not listened to only respond was everything. Rapsody, your vulnerability and honesty is beautiful. Erykah, the space you hold for those who want to learn and the way you take them by the hand to guide them on their journey is what we need from our elders. Thank you both for sharing this convo. It was needed on a soul level💛✨🤍

Stellar. My neighbor just pulled up playing Mama's Gun. Peace to Sankofa.

Ms badu is such a sage 🩷

Badu gave me a green heart. Rapsody gave me poetic justice.

I'm almost 50 years old and I was like the young lady in this video. Always giving and being nice and would get tooken advantage of. I never knew that people treated Kindness like sex. I didn't know that people had to "earn" it. But looking back, when I gave it freely most people didn't respect it.

Real tears…just a beautiful conversation. This literally fell in my lap at the right time. Thank you queens!

I love pure, open and vulnerable conversations. This was beautiful!!!

This collaboration was beautiful, the way they flow and the vulnerability & gentleness between the 2 is true love.

Badula ! How can you NOT love her. One of the most non judgmental spirit of our time! Peace Queen

The way I'm weeping, I'm convinced I just need an elder to rock me back and forth in there arms❤ Also won't mind a "magic rock" to clog the damn that's overflowing in my life

That what sisters are for love ❣️ and wisdom.

Feels like a historic personal conversation like if Nelson Mandela would have sat down with Martin Luther King Jr. Very deep🤗💪🏿🤗

👀👀 legendary

This is beautiful.

This video made me so emotional. Our culture is starved of conversations like this and it feels like a relief to hear this 🤍

Vulnerability! Rap looking so good! Cant wait for the album!

I love the intimacy of the older & younger intertwined of love. Our colors of growth 💜

Greatful For the Lessons That I've learned. From The People that I've Loved And Have Loved Me.

My heart is so full after watching this! I want all my conversations with Black women to sound and feel like this. ❤ Thank you for sharing your space and time with Badu with us. Thank you for the music !

Two of my favorite artists. Better than majority of these artists out today. Especially the little so and so's, and such such's.

This broke me down yall. I’m grateful to be allowed in this experience. As someone who is learning the big lessons of letting go and mastering how to be the beat of my own life… this sounds like wisdom for me to keep growing even if the unknown is scary yet to see and hear Badu remind us the fullness of infinite possibilities. This feels like the sisterhood I needed and a mothering ear. Thank you Yah and everyone involved to get me to break down like this lol soul freedom for real!

I can relate to going against what you said you would never to do to protect the other person.. that part hit me like some bricks dropping from the sky

The conversation is so colorful and beautiful , ....deep in this black and white show....

Great dialogue. Love Badu

❤so much love strong woman with soft beautiful hearts

Love is the drum... You gotta get on beat. Thank you for this conversation. It's such a reflection of my life right now and it felt like I was there with y'all. You two are my favorite female artists and this is definitely a dream come true. It makes me more confident to pursue the direction I'm going with less apprehension and fear. The possibilities are more exciting to me now! I love you both soul much. Thank you both for contributing to my life with your music and wisdom! Blessings! - Tizzle

I love you Rapsody
