Published by Huffington Post on Mon, 28 Nov 2016


It seems Andre 3000 didnt have to apologize a trillion times. A hit single was good enough.On Nov. 23, Erykah Badu told the podcast Rap Radar how she and her mother felt about OutKasts 2000 song Ms. Jackson.The smash single, whichreached No. 1 in the U.S., is meant to be an apology from OutKasts Andre 3000 to Badu and her mother, the songs titular Ms. Jackson.Badu and Andre dated for a period of time in the late 90s in which they conceived a child, Seven Sirius Benjamin, who is now 19.The song was written after the couple broke up.Andr 3000 x Erykah Badu's son Seven Sirius Benjamin chillen' with dad. pic.twitter.com/hdksguY2KU DatPiff (@DatPiff) April 21, 2016 How did my mama feel' Badu recently asked on the culture podcast Rap Radar. Baby, she bought herself a Ms. Jackson license plate. She had the mug, she had the ink pen, she had the headband, everything. Thats who loved it.Badu admits, however, that at first she wasnt a huge fan of the song herself.It hit kind of a sore spot, Badu recalled. I didnt wanna hear that, especially when I heard Big Bois verse. When I heard Andres verse, I felt very good because his verse was really, really inspiring.Lyrics from Andres verse include: Me and your daughter got a special thing going on / You say its puppy love, we say its full-grown / Hope that we feel this, feel this way forever / You can plan a pretty picnic / But you cant predict the weather, Ms. Jackson.Badu added: He just said how he felt, and it was his honest feelings. And I always respected that and listened to what he felt and appreciated it.Badu and Andre split in 1999 when Seven was a toddler, but they have retained a healthy relationship in order to parent their son.Erykah and I are cool friends, man, Andre told Vibe in 2014. We talk on the phone. She even asks my advice on relationships. Shes like a cool sister more than anything. The first thing people would think about us is, Oh, they dont get along. But there are always feelings when people grow apart. Its something you have to get through. But man, we are cool.And Badu, who resides in Dallas, has been vocal on Twitter about the strong presence Andre has had in Sevens life.Andre BEEN back & forth tween Dallas and ATL & ALWAYS took care of his son since birth. He moved here /dallas for high school permanently.

Makes parents feel good. Dream worked. pic.twitter.com/y5Mv703dEZ ErykahBadoula (@fatbellybella) April 25, 2016 It seems like the former couple has truly let bygones be bygones. -- This feed and its contents are the property of The Huffington Post, and use is subject to our terms.
