Erykah Badu re-enacts classic album covers in “Honey” video
A nice tribute to digging for vinyl in record stores (remember those?), this video from Erykah Badu exhibits an endearing sense of humour I’d never really associated with her previously. There’s a chance that’s because I’m almost wholly ignorant of her back catalogue, I admit. Look out for references to album covers from Grace Jones, De La Soul and The Beatles amongst others.
The song itself has a terrific summer-soul swing to it and will sound great in your local cocktail emporium, should you be lucky enough to have one.
*EDIT* Bugger. It’s been removed. Will repost it once it resurfaces…

I suggest hunting out Baduism. A fantastic soul LP… and as for that video? Sublime!
