Outkast’s 2000 hit “Ms. Jackson” was inspired by André 3000’s relationship with the mother of his baby mama, Erykah Badu. The R&B star has now revealed how the subject of the hit song felt about it, including herself.
“I still had a kind of sore spot, like I don’t want to hear that, especially when I heard Big Boi’s verse,” Erykah said during an interview with Rap Radar. “And then when I heard André’s verse, I felt very good because his verse was really, really inspiring. He just told how he felt and I’ve always respected that and listened to what he felt and appreciated it.”
Her mother was a big fan of the song herself and went all out to make sure everyone knew that she was the Ms. Jackson.
“How did my mama feel? Baby, she bought herself a Ms. Jackson license plate,” Badu continued. “She had the mug, she had the ink pen, she had the headband, everything. That’s who loved it.”

Why do you keep pushing this person so much, it’s boring as shit.
We all know full well that if Donald Trump used a term such as ‘baby mamma”, HHDX would be one of the the first publications to accuse him of incorporating subtly racist words into his communications. If you don’t want someone like Trump using an expression, don’t use it either. Why is avoiding hypocrisy so difficult for the radical left?
Because they all a bunch of white hating c00ns!
Why are all the comments from racist trump supporters now ? Hip hop Dx staff, your site has officially been flagged as a tool to spread Trump type racism and fascism. Better start cleaning it up or I’m taking this story to the media
