The subtitle of this post is: I want my VH1 Soul, damnit! Why can’t I watch it on Time Warner Cable? Arggh. I remember during last year’s VH1 Hip Hop Honors ramp-up, VH1 Soul was airing a New Jack City weekend of videos…..I literally begged Toni Herron in the publicity dept. to get me a DVD copy of the whole programming block. Which obviously was asking for too much. But why is the dope ish that I want to see, on the one channel I don’t have with my stupid-ass “D-Best” rip off cable bundle….(sigh)
Anyways, back to the point…..Erykah Badu will be performing new music of her Amerykah album on VH1 Soul tonite, and then clips will be available on vh1soul.com.
I also enjoyed her kooky interview on 106 n Park, which will probably never play any of her videos, so that’s kind of weird. But I’m glad she left an indelible (green spirulina stain) mark on their couch for Boosie/Webbie/ShawtyLo/Sneezy or whoever sits there next.
Here, Erykah eloquently explains her effect on men (ie Andre 3000 and Common)….
(Is it common knowledge who Erykah’s new man is?)

@eskay…..HAHAHA….ok I just wasn’t sure if it was like a Chris Brown Rihanna type thing, or a Keyshia Cole Jeezy type of thing…wait, I’m not sure that comparison makes sense. Sorry.
@g@grandgood…..oh yeah I saw that, its interesting how these things work nowadays. Crownings and things that is. But I’m pretty sure this will go better than when Lupe had a Reebok deal before he had a record. Phew : )

One word for you Info – DirecTV. Oodles O’ cool channels
It’s not common knowledge yet who Erykah has drinking her green juice at the moment because I didn’t know it was Jay Electronica until I read the comments. And I’m as common as you can get since I can’t even keep up with the plethora of blogs out there.
It’s funny that the kids in the video are applauding for albums that came out before any of them were born.

The listening party was held during the lunar esclipse at the Allan Gray Studios in NYC exactly at 8:45pm. The music featured on the New AmErykah album is really on point. The mood was set, with a vintage quick time motion movie by Francis Ford Coppola that served as the backdrop to her music….
