STR8 GLOSSY: ERYKAH BADU COVERS VIBE JUNE/JULY ISSUE http://str8nyc.com/2010/06/08/str8-glossy-erykah-badu-covers-vibe-junejuly-issue/ http://str8nyc.com/2010/06/08/str8-glossy-erykah-badu-covers-vibe-junejuly-issue/#comments Tue, 08 Jun 2010 20:37:44 +0000 LexAve http://str8nyc.com/?p=39543 STR8 GLOSSY: ERYKAH BADU COVERS VIBE JUNE/JULY ISSUE

Ms. Window Seat aka Erykah Badu graces the double cover of Vibe magazine’s June/July issue in a piece entitled “Arts & Crafts”. In the cover story, Badu talks about going naked and the importance of having a good partner….sounds like a good read.
Here are some excerpts:


“I look at some other videos. I’m not naming names, because I don’t want that to be mentioned. There is the thing with sexuality. I’m naked for 13 seconds, and these people are naked the whole time and gyrating and saying come “lick on my lollipop,” and “suck on my cinnamon roll,” and, you know, suggesting sex. People are uncomfortable with sexuality that’s not for male consumption. Could be ‘cause I did it in public too. Do you think people would have been complaining if I had on high-heel shoes?”

“I am a big fan and a supporter of [Jay Electronica's] evolution and growth as an artist. I write all his rhymes. I’m joking. [laughs] I’m always amazed and impressed with the things he comes up with. He definitely does what a partner is supposed to do, that is, evolve you.”

“I was 27 when I had Seven. I was already a vegetarian. I had been for 10 years. I had started making choices that would shape me for the rest of my life. I never thought to measure by each child. My children are six years apart. It wasn’t planned, just how the relationships rolled out. I’ve had three unorthodox marriages of sorts. I’ve had the benefit of having substantial amount of time with people, mind-building time.”



Cop the June/July issue at your local newsstand.

After it was announced in June that Vibe magazine was shutting down due to a huge fall in sales, its founder Quincy Jones vowed that he would buy back the magazine and relaunch it as an online venture. Well, Quincy no longer has to worry because the publishing company which backs Uptown magazine has stepped in and saved the day! The publication will relaunch later this year and will now hit newsstands every three months.
