OKP Exclusive Video: Erykah Badu Performing "On & On" in Madrid, Spain
Okayplayer provided this exclusive Red Bull Music Academy footage of neo-soul goddess Erykah Badu performing “On & On” at Circo Price in Madrid, Spain. Singing, scatting, rapping and otherwise killing it, Badu shows why she remains relevant 15 years after her classic Baduizm LP (which was released February 11, 1997).
Visit OKP for more details about the performance, a behind-the-scenes interview with Badu, as well as more footage by English singer-songwriter Jamie Woon and eclectic beatmaker Hudson Mohawke, who were also on tour with her.

Anyway, for the answer check out my mini-review of Hudson’s latest album, Butter at QuietColor.com.
