"man i don't care what type of music you usually listen to, rap, heavy metal, pop, if you dont fucks with badu then i cant fucks wit you" Gotta second that. Ms. Badu all day long. She's either A) An Ancient that has found the fountain of Youth, B) A Martian, or (more logically) C) Just a really good human being that can relate to everyone, everywhere. She doesn't just make music- she makes medicine.
This track makes you just want to cruise through the neighborhood or just kick back on the front lawn on a Saturday during sunset with a nice cool glass of sweet ice tea...chillin...no trouble, just chillin with the homies and the fam.
@@BeastNationXIV Truth bro. Just get more instrumentals like this gem and a good spliff along with that bubble bath, the rest of the world won't even matter.

Love me my EB ❤️. It’s my dream to work with her someday. I’ve learned so much from her journey,, stuck to her guns , brought back Soul , and all while chose She, in the end. Just brilliant. Love it 💕
Now this beat is pure beauty anybody that don't like this beat got issues this beat still holds weight till this day and it always will nothing but Heat 🔥🔥🔥
done feeling dead scrolls and seashells while she smells of love as i tube through the mood and sooth those coos sweet lady think i could ease off those shoes maybe and caress your soul as i fade and she fades are shade remains everlasting casting off this half mask done masquerading as someone else when the truth is we make such beautiful music all thats left is to tune in to this union
That makes perfect sense because I definitely thought the lead singer sounded like Erykah Badu on certain songs...Moonchild is slept on, hopefully they stay that way too, music like that feels better when its not mainstream
I used to be in love And yes it was amazing This girl I'm thinking of.. So live in syndication Beyond my pedigree A better me I rather say On rainy days she hold me close And wipe the tears away Oh how I miss her so I wonder do she know... AyeYay
this is the ACTUAL instrumental of the song...the poster did not create this lol. If the Nakamarra instro is out there then it may be on youtube somewhere
Many times I you walking up and down brain But I love you I really do Cant understand just how you make it But one thing I knw I count you This wholly world is one divine
Jeremy Meracle this comment was literally before anyones time, people were still sleep on kendrick. congrats for being there so long to support an amazing artists.
"man i don't care what type of music you usually listen to, rap, heavy metal, pop, if you dont fucks with badu then i cant fucks wit you"
Gotta second that. Ms. Badu all day long. She's either A) An Ancient that has found the fountain of Youth, B) A Martian, or (more logically) C) Just a really good human being that can relate to everyone, everywhere. She doesn't just make music- she makes medicine.
This is golden ✊
preach Baduizm nothing like it
Fox Fine I love your comment.
Thank you :)
Say that. Medicine I do NOT mind taking.
This track makes you just want to cruise through the neighborhood or just kick back on the front lawn on a Saturday during sunset with a nice cool glass of sweet ice tea...chillin...no trouble, just chillin with the homies and the fam.
Pass the blunt
Honestly years later so many lofi artists were inspired by her work it’s astonishing to this day I’m even inspired to do something like this.
I love me some Badu....The Queen of Neo Soul....hands down....this instrumental is therapy for me!!🥰🤫😴
A M E N !@!!!!!!!!!@@@@×@@×@
this song man. this instrumental. everything.
THERES JUST SOMETHING ABOUT THIS INSTRUMENTAL I HAVE TO LISTEN TO IT EVERYDAY
JUST MAKES ME FEEL SO GOOD
This is my bubble bath music. And Don't Judge Me. LOL!
Ain't nobody gonna judge you when you have such good taste. This is too mellow for anyone to judge anyone.
@@BeastNationXIV Truth bro. Just get more instrumentals like this gem and a good spliff along with that bubble bath, the rest of the world won't even matter.
With soothing scented candles around you
@@CHICAGOWIND1981 Yes exactly
No judgement bro. This my smoke and brainstorm music! Ms Badu always came with the SMOOTH & SOULFUL
Whatcha gonna do when they come for you
Work ain't honest but it pays the bills
What we gonna do when they come for you
Gave me the life that I came to live
Do I really
Want my baby
Brother tell me what to do
I know you got to get your hustle on
So I pray
I understand the game, sometimes
And I love you strong, but
What you gonna do when they come for you
Work ain't honest but it pays the bills
What we gonna do when they come for you
God I can't stand life withoutcha
Now, me and baby got this situation
See brotha got this complex occupation
And it ain't that he don't have education
Cause I was right there at his graduation
Now, I ain't sayin' that this life don't work
But it's me and baby that he hurts
Cause I tell him right
He thinks I'm wrong
But I love him strong
He gave me the life that I came to live
Gave me the song that I came to give
Pressure on me
But the seed had grown
I can't make it on my own
Summer came around and the flowers bloomed
He became the sun
I became the moon
Precious gifts that we both received
Or could this be make believe
Whatcha gonna do when they come for you
Work ain't honest but it pays the bills
What we gonna do when they come for you
Gave me the life that I came to live
Don't you worry I know there's confusion
God's gonna see us through
Peace out to revolution
But we paid though
Don't you worry, I know there's confusion
The work ain't honest but it pays the bills
Don't you worry
Gave me the life that I came to live
Don't you worry
The work ain't honest but it pays the bills
Don't you worry

Badu always has the smoothest jazz instrumentals
absolutely LOVE this track. I stayed listening to this song when I was pregnant with my daughter 4 years ago
Me too! Only it was almost 24 years ago when it came out for me. But it was good “nesting” music.
Oh wow! I also listened to this a lot while pregnant with my first child ❤️ . My son is 23 now 💪🏿
Hiii
❤️❤️
This piece right here, is just BEAUTIFULLY done. So pleasing to the ear.
My fave Badu record. This beat is therapeutic. I'm listening to it for self-care from now on 🍷🍾🥂
I fell in love with instrumental cuts the very first time I heard one. I still love them today

Summer came around and the flowers bloom..
🎶 This is good nod your head and tap you free music!!! 🎶
The Legendary Roots Crew!!
I am loving this
Queen Erykah❤
This is where the group moonchild got their inspiration from and Stevie Wonder.
That makes perfect sense because I definitely thought the lead singer sounded like Erykah Badu on certain songs...Moonchild is slept on, hopefully they stay that way too, music like that feels better when its not mainstream
Facts
I used to be in love
And yes it was amazing
This girl I'm thinking of..
So live in syndication
Beyond my pedigree
A better me I rather say
On rainy days she hold me close
And wipe the tears away
Oh how I miss her so
I wonder do she know...
AyeYay
Please can you create an instrumental for Hiatus Kaiyote's "Nakamarra", this is BRILLIANT!

Oooohh weeeeeh. 90s Neo Soul slaps.

Nah, this is so much better with the lyrics.
I would sure like to have all of your Erykah Badu Instrumentals on CD, so I could play it in my Car! These are nice! Is it at all possible? :)
Work ain't honest, but it pays the bills...

Kendrick Lamar
Jeremy Meracle this comment was literally before anyones time, people were still sleep on kendrick. congrats for being there so long to support an amazing artists.
Nah dude
Jeremy. I'm impressed that you gave notice to kendrick since was still pretty new to the game. Hindsight for real hip hop. Peace out to revolution.
Comment: 7 years ago. The Kendrick track he's referencing "Kendrick Lamar": 2011 (9 years ago) Dope track. Very pre-GKMC. Peep bro.
I feel like Chance The Rapper would be good on this beat. Big K.R.I.T killed this though.
🔥🔥
My jam at work when me and my co worker do call lines
I need a five string bass to learn this jam! It doesn't sound quite right on a four sting to me.
Not a big fan of Badu but have always liked her band.!!!!!!! (No offense just my preference)
Please please can you make an instrumental for Green Eyes???
