Quantcast

Erykah Badu’s successful music career with hits like “Tyrone” and “Bag Lady” has made her an R&B legend but when it comes to her dating life, she has become known as an urban legend due to many people pointing to her supposed mystical power over men. She dated Andre 3000, with whom she shares 25-year-old son Seven, D.O.C. with whom she shares 18-year-old daughter Puma, Jay Electronica, with whom she shares 14-year-old daughter Mars, and who can forget Common?


Because most of the men she dated appeared to be madly in love with her, with fans joking that they even started dressing like her when they were together (i.e. Common), people began suggesting that it was her love below (shoutout to 3000) that had men stuck and many women wanted to know the secret.

While the soulful songstress made light of the ongoing conversation in the past, such as selling incense that was made to smell like her vagina, she addressed it head-on during her visit to the Tamron Hall Show. When asked how she would describe her power to make men fall for her, Erykah says, “it’s indescribable.” She continues, “and the bedroom, that’s not where you’re gonna find it because my magic doesn’t lie between my thighs, it lies between my ears.”

Period!

The Grammy award-winning artist reveals that she is currently single and at 51 years young, she is focusing on surrounding herself with things that make her happy. Two of those things, which are also highlighted in her video with Vogue, are her bells and her infrared sauna. She accredits her sauna for her youthfulness. “The benefits are amazing,” she says. “The heat is going to go inside of the body and purify you and help drain the toxins and give you the energy that you need.”

Aries-April-2025-monthly-horoscopes

April is a month to slow down and to fully grasp what has been. The month starts in fiery Aries Season, but we are also in the thick of Retrograde Season as we begin the month as well. Thankfully, Mercury finally goes direct on April 7, after being retrograde mid-March, and communication matters are clearing up. This is a month of mental clarity, a fresh start, and not being afraid to dream a little bigger.

On April 12, there is a Full Moon in Libra, and this Full Moon brings relationship and financial matters full circle. This is the time to let go of what doesn’t make you feel balanced or in harmony and to create space for more peace to enter your life. Venus goes direct in Pisces on the same day, after being retrograde since March 1, and love is healing. With Venus now direct, there are more opportunities for commitment and longevity in love, and there is overall a greater feeling of romance, receptivity, and compassion in the air now.

'Sleepmaxxing' Is A Viral Sleeping Trend That Has Its Pros & Cons

There really is no telling, just how many times I have included the Aristotle quote, “The excess of a virtue is a vice” in my content on this platform. Aside from the fact that it’s one of my all-time favorites, the other reason why I use it is, so often, especially when I read about trends that are happening on social media, it applies — because damn. If there is one thing that social media is an expert at, it’s doing everything in excess instead of taking information and figuring out how to find a balance to and for it.
