Erykah Badu // NPR Tiny Desk [video]

Queen Erykah came in an blessed the tiny desk trap w/ her spiritual presence & angelic voice. Loved every second of this but "Green Eyes"the centerpiece of Badu's Tiny Desk performance was my favorite part. It's wide-ranging in scope and musical arrangement and brilliantly executed by the jazz and hip-hop musicians in her backing band. The story of heartbreak is striking enough, but her interpretation showcases her formidable vocal skills. Did U feel that? Erykah Badu is an artist for the ages to enjoy & I've been enjoying the fuck of her & I will continue to do so & if I ever have the blessing to have children? they will enjoy her as well. I will make sure of it. @fatbellybella SET LIST "Rimshot" "Green Eyes" MUSICIANS Erykah Badu (lead vocals), RC Williams (Keys), Braylon Lacy (bass), Cleon Edwards (Drums), Frank Moka (Percussion), Kenneth Whalum (Sax), Keyon Harrold (Trumpet), Dwayne Kerr (Flute) CREDITS Producers: Abby O'Neill, Morgan Noelle Smith; Creative Director: Bob Boilen.
