Yesterday, The Fader announced that Erykah Badu would be on the cover of it’s next magazine. Along with that announcement she also dropped a new song.

In 2015, Erykah Badu responded to a fan who’d asked if she listens to Azealia Banks, and wrote, “Tried.” Simple enough, but of course because Azealia is Azealia, she couldn’t take it in stride. She responded to Badu with, “…. Jealousy,” and then a brief exchange occurred, with Azealia actually wanting to fight Badu. SMH! Now over a year later, the pair have buried the hatchet, after Badu decided to extend an olive branch to her younger peer. “sis. 1 thing I know 4sho about YOU is that you r an advocate 4 your folks.

I did my Googles real quick, and according to IMDB, Carl is “a producer and actor, known for The Boondocks (2005), Freaknik: The Musical (2010) and Black Dynamite (2011).” Sounds like a dope power couple to me!
