There is a lot of talk around the world about the video "
Window Seat" that was written by
Erykah BADU and with the 20th year anniversary of her debut "On and On; " fans want to know what is keeping this singer/songwriter/musician/wife/mother moving forward. In her debut, she talked about evolving around people that she thought loved her; but was there in her presence just to use her; a lot of fans may not have known that but Badu; also known as
Beyoncé; has been attacked brutally in the media for decades. What kept this singer going was amazing! As we sat down and interviewed her about her true feelings and what inspired her the most; she opened up and told us what to expect from her in the near future.
1.
How did you deal with the media attacks? I didn't even know I was attacked constantly. I thought that people would hate on me from time to time. I thought everyone experienced that. I didn't even know that I was the Queen that Jesus decided to marry. It was amazing to finally know who I am.
2. Did you hear about the war; that was talked about in the Holy Bible? I knew of the war, but I didn't know that I was in the war. I thought that people wanted to challenge me because of knowing that I was a black belt-55. I thought that it was normal for people to get in scuffles. It wasn't anything that I had not heard before. I just kept living life and decided to try to make the best of what was going on in the present time.

How did you feel knowing that people were spreading rumors about having affairs with you? Did they decide to have affairs with my music? That was all they were getting from me. I never ever wanted to go outside of my marriage, and I never did! You know how people choose to say, "Oh that's my girlfriend.., etc." when they see a face on television. Well, I knew kids use to growing up. That's how innocent it should have been. I didn't appreciate being lied on. I couldn't believe how people wanted me to have a corrupt life because of them being unhappy. I always chose happiness, and I always will! Trust me, my marriage is there! I miss my boo! We are still in the process of healing. It takes a while. We are still in the process of knowing that it really is okay to trust each other. Some humans were not satisfied with their own spouses and thought a sinful lifestyle would be the best for them. You choose for yourself but leave God Almighty and his family out of it.

What is your next project? Right now, I am promoting a book about my feelings and how I viewed finally realizing what was going on in my life. I didn't know that people could have such hatred; even to themselves. It just didn't make sense but that's how life is. You have to make a decision for yourself. You have to trust your own judgment. You can't hate on someone else's! If you know right from wrong; then teach it; in your lifestyle!
