As someone who knows what it's like to garner controversy over some pretty out-there comments, Erykah Badu can evidently sympathize with the backlash Kanye West is facing after tweeting about his love for Donald Trump. After the past week, with everyone making sure to respond to 'Ye's tweets, Erykah Badu has responded to him directly.
With Yeezy revealing he wants to love everyone and remove hate from his life, it definitely lines up from Badu's comments from earlier in the year.
"I'm a humanist," she said in response to claims of anti-semitism. "I see good in everybody. I saw something good in Hitler."
During the interview, Badu also said that she appreciated the work of XXXTentacion and Bill Cosby, saying, "The people who got hurt, I feel so bad for them. I want them to feel better, too. But sick people do evil things; hurt people hurt perople. I know I could be crucified for saying that, because I'm supposed to be on the purple team or the green team. I'm not trying to rebel against what everybody's saying, but maybe I want to measure it."
Free thinkers unite.
