Erykah Badu Reveals How She Built a Spiritual Brand Worth Millions

Erykah Badu sold incense made from her burned underwear for $50 a stick. It sold out in 19 minutes. But that's just one piece of an empire most people never knew existed. In this video, we break down how the Queen of Neo-Soul went from waitressing at Steve Harvey's comedy club in Dallas to building a spiritual brand spanning music, fashion, cannabis, and birth work. We're talking about a woman who's delivered over 50 babies as a doula, launched a cannabis line with Cookies, walked runways for Givenchy, and just won her first Grammy in 22 years. You'll discover the untold story of the Soulquarians, the legendary collective where Erykah was the only woman creating alongside D'Angelo, Questlove, J Dilla, and Common. We cover her relationships with André 3000, The D.O.C., and Jay Electronica, and the urban legend that being with her transforms men's careers. We also get into the controversies that almost ended everything, from stripping naked at the JFK assassination site to the Hitler comments that sparked massive backlash. How did she survive it all and come back stronger? This is the full story of how authenticity became a business model. What's your favorite Erykah Badu album?
