Erykah's Walk of Thought

     This new Erykah Badu video has created a lot of buzz the past few weeks due to the revealing nature of  her taking her clothes off one by one as she walks in Dallas, TX, at the site of the Kennedy assassination.  She had the video planned but did it without any production or set up.  Pow! Badu getting out of a car walking, singing, and getting buck naked.  The public had no idea and someone actually filed a complaint and EB was fined $500 for disorderly conduct.  The revelation had a deeper meaning and had no intent on being graphic or obscene.  She's been discussing the topic of "Groupthink" and creating a lot of dialogue nationally about how the public is influenced blindly.  The video and epilogue questions the viewer to think.  Make of it as you will, but it's also a great song and it's great to see her in the spotlight creating true art.  See here.
