Erykah promised that she would take her fans out of this world with BADUBATRON Radio. She explained that her station will explore different genres, all focused towards demonstrating her energy and personal motives. A press release for BADUBATRON Radio described it as:

“A space where music genres are stars and the galaxy is filled with psychedelic funk, retro soul, classic rock, spiritual jazz and experimental hip hop. A trip to Badu’s curated station will take your mind exactly where it needs to go.”

As hip-hop and R&B fans know, Erykah is a creative and enlightening soul. Her essence, and the messages within her music, aim to do more than just entertain her listeners. Her music speaks candidly to issues such as women’s empowerment and systemic oppression. At its heart, her music explores human consciousness itself, and what it means to exist and build relationships in this life. We can only hope that by taking us further into her world with BADUBATRON Radio, Erykah Badu will also bring us closer to ourselves.

Erykah’s Other Ventures

Badu’s reach goes far beyond her music. Erykah is also involved in acting and producing, as well as perfume and incense making. In fact, her $50/pack incense sold out within minutes of its release. Badu has also found continued success with her collaborative projects. She works and has worked with some of the most historic names in R&B, including Outkast and The Roots. An important name in R&B history herself, Badu still continues to amaze her fans with her music and production. As the Queen of Neo-Soul, we can only imagine BADUBATRON Radio will further expand her magical kingdom.
