Just learned about this beautiful song during the #VERZUS "battle." It really was far from a battle though, it was two *GROWN WOMEN* showing nothing but love for each other. This song, and Jill's song, JAHRAYMECOFASOLA, both new to me, deeply touched my soul. Thanks to both of you #QUEENS for introducing me to these songs that will be with me for a lifetime.
nf094e R E N É E I could watch those beautiful soul queens vibing & singing to their classics all day, everyday. They exude such beautiful, powerful, positive energy. No tearing each other down, just appreciating & celebrating each others music. That is how it’s done! Yesterday’s “battle” was a real treat. Happy Mother’s Day to all the special mothers out there!
The erykah badu vs jill Scott battle bought me here! This song caught my attention and I was like: this track right here......this is what I needed. 🙌🙌🙌🙌🙌🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥⭐⭐⭐⭐ How did we not know about this track?
Man... heads knew bout this one.. the real obscure ones on soundtracks and singles that dont get released. The masses didn't but it's all good it's getting its love now. Peace
This is my girl. I played this for my MSW class as the soundtrack of my life. I love the way Badu does her thing. She sings what my heart longs to say. Be blessed and flow with the tide!
Just remembering I set this song as an alarm on my blackberry back in 2015. ...some mornings I would lay in the light,and let it play all the way through. Looking back as a collective time in life... those days were peaceful.
The VERZSUS battle between Queens Jill Scott and Erykah Badu was less battle and more love fest than anything. THREE HOURS of love and light and we were all here for it and seriously wanting more! Heard this song and I had to find it. Couldn't find it anywhere else.
I remember hearing this back in the day. I couldn't figure out why it wasn't released as a single. It was hotter than 90% of what was out at the time. This song was like a portal to a better world. One where everybody was focused on being a better self and having better days, better experiences. And that common goal made things wonderful. Yeah. That's how this song makes me feel. 🥰
This song was apart of a compilation album brought out by Heineken that was called Red Star Sounds. It has a commercial with a cute old man walking in a cute manner to the song. I bumped this album heavy. Came out around 2002 or 03. It was an ode to celebrating Earth Day in April. The newness of what birth creates. 🙏🏽
Jesus....people are so late. This is from a compilation CD I purchased, in 2002. Maybe if folks were proactive (then and now) and searched for the alternative (instead of waiting for it to be fed to you)....the vibration would change.
this is a very beautiful song...just like Ms. Badu. she is definitely communicating musically on a higher level..."what good does your words do, if they can't understand you...." Erykah knows everybody aint ready, but the music is timeless, so when the time is right and minds are open, her genius will reveal itself to those who don't "get it" yet.
Junior yr in high school. Seeing the Heineken "Red Star Sounds" commercial after Bobby Jones gospel; with the old man walking with cane to moving his hips, on sunday 😂🥰 sunday, going to Target because Sam Goody and Tower didn't have it in stock..but the preview in store was hooked up! 🎶🎧💿❤
Shout out to all the people who just heard that song 2 days ago on the verzus battle. I just saw my original comment from 9 years ago. LMAO! Glad to listen to this again... I have no clue where this original CD is. Thank God for downloads. Peace Yall!
NOT here because of the versuz battle...here because I was UP ON this joint when it FIRST came out in the early 2000’s. If you don’t know you betta ask somebody! 😉 #Redstarsounds
All right...another rare tune of Badu that you may like : "Afro Blue" (Robert Glasper feat Erykah Badu). Sweet vibes to all" ua-cam.com/video/3-0JZlrk4xA/v-deo.html
thank you for posting this song. a dj i know gave me a mix cd she made and it had this song on it. i instantly fell in love with it, but the only problem was that it was edited to bleed into the other songs on the cd...no clear start or stop. i have looked all over the place for this cd compilation just to get this song. this song is so many things all rolled into one.
Redstar had a bunch of dope artist on its compilations. This song brings me back to a simpler time in my life. I’m glad it was brought back to the forefront of my memory
I first heard this on Myspace almost 20 yrs ago but it was under "Oatmeal Queens" always said it had to really be Erykah. I JUST found this TODAAAAAAY and I'm smiling 😁

I'm glad SO many people are awakening to the absolute genius of E. Badu.
Yesterday was my 1st time hearing this. My ears were happy.
Came here after the show too can't get enough. What a vibe, what an epic night. Thank you!💜💫
Red star sounds CD.. lost it.. used to bump this all the time..

Found my Red Star Soul CD last night... LOVE this song! So Calming!
Got bugs in ya house that you let run free
But if they dont bug you then they dont bug me.
Peace and love.
Def came here after the Jill vs Erykah battle. Vibes!!

Here from the Badu/Scott live!
i love this song... i haven't heard it since i had the red star sounds vol. 1 cd.... it always relaxes me.... and i smile for today....

Totally felt like I was the only person in the world who knew about this song until ...today
Stori Brooks Same here! This is a classic favorite!
Jesus....people are so late. This is from a compilation CD I purchased, in 2002. Maybe if folks were proactive (then and now) and searched for the alternative (instead of waiting for it to be fed to you)....the vibration would change.
First time hearing this...today.
5 people are still frowning because of yesterday. And have no hope in tomorrow!
This Heineken Red Star Sounds Vol. 1 CD was everything... So mad it was stolen & I didn't replace it!
That CD was the truth!
i got to find it again... mine broke .. was pissed
It was truly otherworldly
I hear the intro to “Don’t you forget it” after this song ends.
I still have mine☺️
Glad to find a link! But what’s wild is I never heard this tune until the live!!! #muchgratitude
I didnt know this song existed until yesterday. wow! I have never experienced such a beautiful sensation on a Sunday afternoon drive.
This is therapy for the soul
this is a very beautiful song...just like Ms. Badu. she is definitely communicating musically on a higher level..."what good does your words do, if they can't understand you...."

aww the moments i had with this song. The past can be so unfair when its far away
I remember playing this song on a late night show I had at my college’s radio station (Hampton U WHOV 88.1 FM) #memories
What y’all know about that Red Star sounds cd? Whole thing went hard
Yes it did. The jack Herrera song is 🔥
Yes it did! I need to find it since half of the songs aren't streamable
hell to the yeah! I still have my copy! that shit was dope! Badu fucked Jill up when she pulled that out her bag lol!
akil333 I still have my copy as well. Red Star also came out with a Vol 2 which I have as well but it's a different genre compilation.
That was te FIRST TIME I HEARD THIS SONG WAs on red star sound,,they have a volume one and two
This is one of the hardest, deepest, dopest vibes EVERRRRR. I am gone.
I like her as artist, and her form of art.

I'm late but Red Star Sounds Vol 1. It's good. This song is track 2.
Wow, I'm not sure if I ever heard this, but I'm loving it. It's so relaxing!!!
Redstar had a bunch of dope artist on its compilations. This song brings me back to a simpler time in my life. I’m glad it was brought back to the forefront of my memory
