Erykah Badu doesn’t believe she was the muse behind Outkast’s record, “Ms. Jackson,” but believes it was actually about her mother.
During an episode of “Popcast,” co-host Joe Coscarelli brought up the record while discussing Badu’s role as a muse.
“So much great hip-hop has been made about you, including Outkast’s ‘Ms. Jackson,'” Coscarelli said to the neo-soul artist.
Badu interjects, replying that she doesn’t feel the record was centered around her.
“I don’t think ‘Ms. Jackson’ was actually about me. I don’t think so, but people say it,” she offered.
She jokingly follows up, sharing how her mother, Kolleen Gipson, fancies the song being about her.
“Well, she thinks it was about her. She’s got the bumper sticker and the airbrush T-shirt,” the “On & On” singer expressed.
The “Appletree” singer shares a child with Andre 3000 out of the three children she has, birthing a song named Seven Sirius Benjamin in 1997. Although the couple broke up in 1999, the two continued to collaborate on music together, working together on the two records “Humble Mumble” and “Hello.”
She continued in the conversation with Coscarelli, sharing that she feels she has inspired “many things” and has walked the same path as the fathers of her children.
“Any person that I’ve come in contact with—specifically the fathers of my amazing children—I think that they were on that already. That’s why we sympathetically vibrated together,” she expressed.
