I know I promised to write more about music than anything else, but as you know when life gives you a banana, you make lemonade.
Anyway, today I felt like listening to something ‘warm’, y’know that ‘feel good’, food-for-the-soul typa jam...

So, I went to the 1st lady of all things soulful. Ms Erykah Badu. I remember the first time I heard her sang. I was walking up Tsubaki St; Dube – Soweto. A neighbour had MetroFM on full-blast. That’s how it’s done on a Saturday, when you’re spring cleaning your house. Anything else would just be Sandton.
Anyway, Badu was on a Glen Lewis show on Metro. And he dropped that joint ‘On and On’. Maaaaaaaaaaaaannnn… what a track. There was nothing like it on radio. It felt like I was being gently caressed by the sun.
Many years later, Erykah has gone through life’s challenges, shot a video buck naked – to make a point. And this is where we find her. I would call Tyrone, but umm…he in gaol. Kwaaaaaaaa!
Enjoy. Support.
