[Late Night Blog Post] Badu Keeps Millennials Spiritually Woke The vibes that shoots out from Badu’s vocal chords offer comfort, simplicity and truth – something that millennials are craving as times become increasingly hard. From the back to back slayings of young Black men to the increased gentrification of African American culture, Badu speaks to the soul that begs for freedom. Although her most recent release, “But You Caint Use My Phone” protrudes the Badu’s colorful aura, her first and second album, “Baduizm” and “Mama’s Gun,” writes the conscious script for woke millennials. In songs like “On & On” and “Didn’t Cha Know,” Badu spits knowledge that tends to go over the heads of many, spitefully poking the third eye of those who claim to be conscious. Her analogies are hard to decipher, but once understood, the richness of her message is awe-inspiring – literally. Her approach is poetic, forcing one to read between the lines to find the truth, even if it’s ugly. Her ability to connect with her inner self acts an template for those seeking confidence; although humorous, her tweets and music spell out life lessons that changes the way millennials eat, act toward their peers, and express themselves artistically. Badu defines millennial consciousness. Without her, the confidence found in many to be true to who they are would vaguely exist. -- source link
