Erykah Badu & The Kids Have Beats For Days

Erykah Baduembraced hersocial media mastery yet again to reveal another home video style clip, this time featuring all of the little ones in an audiovisual beat-making collage that's sure to put a smile on your face and maybe even a nod in your head. While more recent self-released clips have found the Analogue Girl voyaging out into the digital world with heartfelt, bedridden cover songs or even taking it to Times Square to try her hand (vocal chords) at busking, today's offering comes with assistance from the entire Badu fam (dear universe: can we get a '70s-style sitcom meets reality show called The Badu Bunch? With recurring walk-on roles for Jay Electronica, Andre 3000 and The D.O.C.!) as she chops up soundbites provided by Seven, Mars and Puma, rearranges them into a short boomer and gives us another joint to get the week started with. And can we just say how eerily identical young 3K is to his father? In any case, go ahead and get your week started proper with a selection from Erykah Badu and the kids making a beat down below. Keep it locked for the next episode, as it appears there's plenty more to come from Erykah and Family Badu.
