Starting point is 00:00:00 Erica Badu versus Beyonce was not a Mabingo card of 2023. Because let me tell you something. I was thinking that because of the utmost respect that Beyonce has in the industry and Erica Badu, mind you, I would just think that these two would just never beef. It's kind of like if Jay-Z, and P. Diddy was the beef. Like maybe they beefed in the past,
Starting point is 00:00:34 but it's just like very, it just seems like two people who very much is in the same lane as far as teammates shooting at each other. Not literally, of course. You know, with women beef, they do it a lot better than men
Starting point is 00:00:49 as they keep it just strictly words and men, you already know where they take it. You know, just ask why I'm W. Mellie. Oh, my fault. Anyways, Erica Badoo has insinuated and also shameless plug analytic dreams video on Spotify
Starting point is 00:01:03 to see what I'm talking about. Exclusively on Spotify. Erica Badu insinuated that Beyonce is copying her looks in a series of tweets on January 18th
Starting point is 00:01:19 when she posted herself wearing a hat and she also posted Beyonce with the same hat along with the caption I guess I'm everybody's stylist, which I can pull up right now. You can see the hat that she's talking about.
Starting point is 00:01:35 So this is, you see the hat that Erica's wearing. Down the left, you see Beyonce. And you see her series of tweets and Instagram story posts with her first one with Beyonce wearing the hat saying, hmm, second one with her wearing the hat and basically saying, I guess I'm everybody's stylist. So after Badoos saying that, that basically opened the floodgates. and everybody started debating on social media with some people agreeing with her
Starting point is 00:02:10 and then of course, you already know, the beehive was coming out in droves basically defending Beyonce. Some people pointing out that both Badoo and Beyonce are known for their fashion style and also is a possibility that they both came up with the look independently.
Starting point is 00:02:34 Because of course, it's kind of just a hat. Like obviously I guess you can see the red with the hat But Beyonce's wearing a shirt Badoos wearing whatever this is It's like a dress combined with What looks like a funnel cake wrapped around her But then Beyonce is you know
Starting point is 00:02:51 She got the boots that go up to her thighs I don't know I'm not zooming in on that But because I don't know how to do that Basically the outfit is a totally different When it comes to But like besides the hat Obviously the hat I guess even though didn't Beyonce have like some type of hat like that on the Beyonce Res-
Starting point is 00:03:11 I mean say I can find this Renaissance didn't she have some type of hat like down her cover oh no it was just a horse that was silver I swear she had some type of hat like that I guess not but anyway she was riding a horse so this this type of hat isn't like out of the norm for Beyonce to wear like this cowboy centric hat and basically Beyonce's hat is larger and it curves like a cowboy style so I don't get it. I think Bianca Badu is kind of tripping. But at the end of the day, I had to cover this because it's not every day.
Starting point is 00:03:52 You see the likes of Erica Badu going at Beyonce. Like, why? Like Erica Badu is one of those where she doesn't really need like clout. But it's interesting tactic to accuse. Beyonce of copying her look. I don't know if this is just a thing in the women's society where you copy somebody's look and then get immediately called out for it. But I know a lot of people who get inspiration from people looks and then decide to wear
Starting point is 00:04:27 it at, you know, maybe the next day, the next month, the next week, the next year. And for guys, it's kind of like, you know, you bite my style or trying to be like me. but to go this far as to put up a side-by-side photo image when even that all the whole outfit besides the hat is completely different like this is just insane like I just don't understand like why would Erica Badu accuse Beyonce is such a thing and now I know what you're gonna say I am officially a member of the Beehive and yes I am
Starting point is 00:05:04 so anyways that's all I got to say click my link to read my bio Let me know one of my social medias. Oh, also, I do need to finish with this. Beyonce has not responded to Erica Badu's tweets, of course. Like, why was she? You know, come on now. And she has been known to pay homage to other artists and her style.
Starting point is 00:05:25 So it's possible that she was simply inspired by Badu. But I do not think that she was copying by doing any stretch to imagine an imagination. Like, come on now. Like, it's Beyonce. Like, and with that, you know, I do feel like. my application to be a member of the Beehive should be accepted. So anyways, click my link tree in my bio. Let me know in one of my social medias.
Starting point is 00:05:49 What do you think about the whole Erica Badu versus Beyonce fiasco? And do you think Beyonce was copying Erica Badu's look or not?
