I believed in myself, and I've always worked very, very hard as an artist, and I am an artist in every sense of the word.
Erykah BaduI'm a woman who has gone through many heartaches, enough to dedicate my whole life to trying to figure them out.
Erykah BaduAnything that had to do with art I been doing all my life. It was a gift. It's nothing I work real hard at doing.
Erykah BaduWhen people are going on to the next plateau of whatever this thing is called life, I also want them to breathe easily, even if it's the last one they take here with us. I guess I'm the welcoming committee and ushering committee.
Erykah Badu
