Erykah Badu belongs to the musical record as a figure whose work outlasted the moment that produced it.
The record lists Erykah Badu as American neo-soul singer.
Erykah Badu was born at Dallas in 1971. Her recorded nationality is United States. She trained at Grambling State University and Booker T. Washington High School for the Performing and Visual Arts.
Amplification, television and the album as an art form defined this period, and the record industry reached its greatest scale.
She worked as singer, singer-songwriter and poet.
The instruments recorded are voice.
Her work is classed as soul and neo soul.
Her best-known work is Badu Pussy. Music outlives its context more reliably than any other art, and usually for reasons its makers did not predict.
That the work came out of United States shaped it: musical traditions, training institutions and the reach of a recording industry all differ by country.
Erykah Badu is still performing or recording, and the shape of the career is not yet settled.
