I love the lady with the lighter colored "afro", for lack of a better word. When the light shines on her hair it's like a sunset. It's a gorgeous color I wish I could get my hair that color but I just can't pull that off like she does.
There was no need for a come back song.. Women are the ones who pick the losers that they cry about it. The reality is; people choose their equivalent.If he was trash, it's because the woman who picked him was trash. Like always attracts like. No come back needed.

@@bikotheanimator6169 Oh dear, the Divine Feminine is not some false god, it's a quality that exists in the world and in each person, just like the Divine Masculine. Broken down to its core, the Divine Feminine is humility and self worth, both of which are required to receive God's love. The Divine Masculine is desire and giving, both of which are required to receive and to utilize that love. Why would you think God is only a "He?" That isn't very logical is it?

Went to a erykah badu concert last month and I can’t tell ya how nostalgic it was to watch her sing this live. I’m 31 and thought I missed my moment to see her perform. My parents played her all the time while I played the sega. Good memories I’ll carry with me for life
"Sistas how yall feel?".....is one of those lyrical lines that awaken your teenage soul. Im so grateful I grew up listening to this soulful Queen. Thank you Miss Badu we eternally love you!❤
Imagine how awkward it must've been for the couples in the audience who went to that show that night and argued about that same exact thing on the way there. Lol
I imagine tgey woulda forgiven themselves and laughed no good badu fan can be that childish to feel awkward to be with the one they love, i mean there could be people like that, but most likely very very few
@@marissagates167 Well Tyrone is the ride or die friend who is also riding around in her car tagging along and not paying his fair share whenever they go out
The incredible thing about this song is that Erkyah said in an interview that she improvised (made up) the whole song on the spot, in front of this huge audience and she did it, in one shot. That fact that the band kept on beat with a steady melody and the background singers harmonized to a song they'd never heard is pure talent. What's also commendably extraordinary, is that the background singers instinctively knew to add their parts of " Call Him", "Come On Come On come on" while doing it on key and in unison. That is amazing.
Bullshit. They had played around with the song during rehearsals, this is by far not the first time they heard it. The "Call him" of the background singers was already rehearsed, they just weren't prepared to actually play it as a song. You know, it's a fucking great song the way it is, you don't need to invent extra shit to make it seem like it's magic.
As much as I want to believe this the odds of making up a song this awesome on the spot and the background singers ALL KNOWING TO SING "call him" isn't possible
Yeah, it takes a lot of work to make music work. Especially with the harmonies. I attended a free jazz concert once. A trio. Any two of them playing together worked, but it just didn't work when all three were playing together. Only concert I remember walking out on.
That happens all the time if you see a good jazz band in concert. I've seen Tank and the Bangas a few times live and they do the same thing. Just start jamming and come up with something new.
Less common, sure, but natural hair wasn't that unusual by the time the late-90s came around. In part because of artists like Lauryn Hill, Bahamdia, Badu, and Zhane that were helping to bring it back into style in the mid-90s. Natural hair wasn't rare
@Nickhead87 , hold on, now while the timing of the generations is up for dispute, I'm pretty sure they wouldn't be as old as 42. Most people wouldn't call someone born in 1975 or 1976 a Millennial. And just to make sure you know, Gen Xers are older than Millennials

The movie “They cloned Tyrone” brought me BACK here. They changed the lyrics for the movie!! From “call Tyrone” to “cloned Tyrone”. Thought I was bugging off some conspiracy lol
Most of yall are missing the point of the song.... TYRONE is not her man he is the FRIEND of her man.... Her boyfriend is the loser and she is telling him ( her man) she tired of his mess and she wants him to call his friend TYRONE to come and get him... Alot of yall keep referring to Tyrone in this song as if that is who she is talking to in the song... Uh No.... ..
TYRONE (LIVE) LYRICS [Intro] "Now keep in mind that I'm an artist And I'm sensitive about my shit" (Audience cheering) "But y'all been nice about it" "Alright" "Sisters, How Ya'll Feel?" (Girls Cheering) "Brothers, Ya'll Alright?" (Guys Cheering) "Lets See How Ya'll Groove to this" "Alright" [Verse 1] I'm gettin' tired of your Shit You don't never buy me nothin' See Everytime you come around You got to bring Jim, James, Paul, & Tyrone See why can't we be by ourselves, sometimes See I've been having this on my mind For a long time I just want it to be You and me Like It used to be, Baby But ya don't know how to act So matter of fact [Hook] I think ya better call Tyrone (Call Him) And Tell him come on, Help you get your Shit (Come On, Come on) You need to Call Tyrone (Call Him) And tell him I said come on [Verse 2] Now everytime I ask you for a little cash You say no and turn right around and ask me for some ass Oh, Well hold up Listen partner I ain't no cheap thrill Cause Miss Badu is always comin' for real And you know the deal, nigga Everytime we go somewhere I gotta reach down in my purse To pay your way and your homeboys way And sometimes your cousin's way They don't never have to pay Don't have no cars Hang around in bars Try to hang around with stars Like Badu I'm gon' tell you the truth Showing groove Or get the boot [Hook] I think ya better call Tyrone, (He, he he) (Call Him) And tell him come on Help you get your shit (Come On, Come on, Come On) You need to call Tyrone (Call Him) "Hold On" But ya can't use my phone [Outro] (Audience Cheering)
Being surrounded by white family and white friends, it took me a long time to realise I wasn't white-I am mixed with an incredible culture that I didn't want to take notice of. So why was I trying to look like it-feel white-be like it? What was I so afraid of: that people wouldn't like the fact that I love being black? Stuff that! I am a woman of colour and, when I realised there was a way to express that so openly and proudly, my confidence soared. And Badu was a part of that change in my identity. So thank you, beautiful woman!
Out of nine children, I was the only one that listened to every single of these song. I was always told that I was changed at birth.😊 I was always considered the black sheep of the family ( no pun intended ). I don't regret being who I am. This was the best music ever. My husband looks at me like asking...who are you. And how do you know this type of music. We've been together 14 years and we still find something new in each other every day. He and I are more alike than my twin sister (RIP) and I were. Your never too old to find your forever soul mate.
2023 and this and the incredible Ms. Badu, I will always love!! I actually play this (no joke) each time I breakup with someone!!! I actually put it on repeat. Hahaha 🤣 I especially love when she sings “now when I ask you for a little cash, you turn right around and ask me for a$$!” And you know what: It’s true, I ain’t no cheap thrill! Love her and This song is a classic!
So just how expensive are you? I'm not assuming you're a slut. Man want to pillow,women have material concerns. Such things have always been the case, but best done within a stable relationship. You don't sound much committed to that. You're young and despite our masculine efforts I've yet to know of a worn out pussy. Unless one is slung down like a mule. Such guys should confine themselves to cheap boring pornography. The really low class kind in a cheap dirty rat hole. With hairy unwashed foreigners........ewww I almost made myself vomit.r Anyway in theory if you were inclined like a doper, an alcoholic or homeless and needed to rent one of those cheap rat holes. I ask because in writing a manuscript. I can't actually say "book" since they are digital downloads these days the literature will be informative, nasty to the point of a black box warning,funny, embarrassing and hopefully entertaining. I have you pegged from what I can see at $75 which from my research is a good price for a quality throw, you know a little @$$. That doesn't apply if you're a crack 'ho, or a mether. I hear such couplings are disappointing have a high potential for disease and just plain pitiful. So how close am I?
That type of old love that we cant to seem to understand because we are from this generation but looking back, these types of songs were so needed and so real, still to this day but this is just a masterpiece of an era, very well represented
+PinkAngel2623 Correct, the same principle at work with the song yankee doodle, it was originally a british tune brit soldiers would sang making fun of americans during the revolutionary war(a doodle was slang for fool), but when America started winning the war, American soldiers started singing it back to them as a taunt(as in who's the doodle now) turning it into a patriotic song in the process
***** I have to disagree with you there.if you've ever read something that touched your soul, you felt the energy that the person who wrote it put into those words.everything and everyone has energy even if the vibrations are very low.And don't worry,i'm black but i hate being called nigga,i just dont appreciate it despite it's modern meaning.also,it tends to be more of a masculine verb which also is why i dont like being addressed that way.
I was a little white/Latina girl growing up in Canada and this was the music I grew up listening to because of my family! Music like this set such a strong foundation for me! Thanks to Miss. Badu I ain’t never put up with a mans bullshit! 🙌🏽
So sad that we don't have many artists now that can do this "Stand up in front of the band and just blow"! Greatness right here people! 👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾
I remember singing this song to my Pop when I was around 10. My mom thought it was the funniest thing. When I listen to this song now, it just makes me think of that particular memory. 😂
This song has become a woman's anthem and it always amazing me when I watch this video of when she first performed Tyrone. EB the Divine Feminine voiced our frustrations into a beautiful, groovy soulful vent that has become a timeless classic. Thank you Ms Badu.🙏🙏🙏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏✌💜
The three sisters backing Ms Badu, so beautiful.
The natural hairstyles are everything.
And they're SO HAPPY with the song. The grins!
My thoughts exactly
Our Black Queens have always been the Shizit-now the world is finding out - what the brothers already knew
Yes. Class act.
I love how she's like "brothas y'all alright..." Before she assinates every brotha
she is fucking telling the truth
Lovable Lowlife She's "assassinating' a certain type. That's not the 'brothas' she's asking about at all.
only the trifling ones. there are brothas out there who got their shit together... then there's the ones who hang with Tyrone.
No every brotha..just the ones that know they not living right or treating they woman fairly
Shiit... not every. I'm a brotha and I don't feel spoken to at all.
Yes we love queen erykah, but can we talk about the three beautiful backup vocalists with them natural hairstyles? Slayin
Thought the same
Iris K Yes, yes, yes
I love the lady with the lighter colored "afro", for lack of a better word. When the light shines on her hair it's like a sunset. It's a gorgeous color I wish I could get my hair that color but I just can't pull that off like she does.

The coldest R&B diss track of ALL TIME. And NO brutha has been able to rival a comeback ever since.
Shoot why would they most of these songs back then had messages and some we're pretty truthful.
Well Tracy Morgan almost did with his clapback called "Simone". 😂
There was no need for a come back song.. Women are the ones who pick the losers that they cry about it. The reality is; people choose their equivalent.If he was trash, it's because the woman who picked him was trash. Like always attracts like. No come back needed.
Tracy Morgan did

Can we appreciate Mz.Badu's Beauty💋
Most of yall are missing the point of the song.... TYRONE is not her man he is the FRIEND of her man.... Her boyfriend is the loser and she is telling him ( her man) she tired of his mess and she wants him to call his friend TYRONE to come and get him...
Alot of yall keep referring to Tyrone in this song as if that is who she is talking to in the song... Uh No....

TYRONE (LIVE) LYRICS
[Intro]
"Now keep in mind that I'm an artist
And I'm sensitive about my shit"
(Audience cheering)
"But y'all been nice about it"
"Alright"
"Sisters, How Ya'll Feel?" (Girls Cheering)
"Brothers, Ya'll Alright?" (Guys Cheering)
"Lets See How Ya'll Groove to this"
"Alright"
[Verse 1]
I'm gettin' tired of your Shit
You don't never buy me nothin'
See Everytime you come around
You got to bring Jim, James, Paul, & Tyrone
See why can't we be by ourselves, sometimes
See I've been having this on my mind
For a long time
I just want it to be
You and me
Like It used to be, Baby
But ya don't know how to act
So matter of fact
[Hook]
I think ya better call Tyrone
(Call Him)
And Tell him come on, Help you get your Shit (Come On, Come on)
You need to Call Tyrone
(Call Him)
And tell him I said come on
[Verse 2]
Now everytime I ask you for a little cash
You say no and turn right around and ask me for some ass
Oh, Well hold up
Listen partner
I ain't no cheap thrill
Cause Miss Badu is always comin' for real
And you know the deal, nigga
Everytime we go somewhere
I gotta reach down in my purse
To pay your way and your homeboys way
And sometimes your cousin's way
They don't never have to pay
Don't have no cars
Hang around in bars
Try to hang around with stars
Like Badu
I'm gon' tell you the truth
Showing groove
Or get the boot
[Hook]
I think ya better call Tyrone, (He, he he)
(Call Him)
And tell him come on
Help you get your shit
(Come On, Come on, Come On)
You need to call Tyrone
(Call Him)
"Hold On"
But ya can't use my phone
[Outro]
(Audience Cheering)
😊

Correction, it's: Show and prove or get the boot"
Yes
Really glad that cut that "artist" crap out of this video. Like, brilliant. Downvoted.
BIRTH MOTHER OF NEO SOUL🔥 She is Legendary and I am so grateful I was there since the beginning!❤
Yes!!! She's the Mother of Neo Soul baby.
this my jam ‼️ " holdup .... but you can't use my phone " 💯 ms.badu stay coming real
Being surrounded by white family and white friends, it took me a long time to realise I wasn't white-I am mixed with an incredible culture that I didn't want to take notice of. So why was I trying to look like it-feel white-be like it? What was I so afraid of: that people wouldn't like the fact that I love being black? Stuff that! I am a woman of colour and, when I realised there was a way to express that so openly and proudly, my confidence soared. And Badu was a part of that change in my identity. So thank you, beautiful woman!
This is awesome. I’m glad you came into yourself.
were you adopted by a white family
niola. kim yep
I am sure they will still love and respect you just the same. Spreading love your way!
Just be who you are and embrace who are. I am mixed and my name is Tyrone.
Man she is so beautiful and her voice is AMAZING live
Just saw her. Blown away
Yes lawd 😍
Out of nine children, I was the only one that listened to every single of these song. I was always told that I was changed at birth.😊 I was always considered the black sheep of the family ( no pun intended ). I don't regret being who I am. This was the best music ever. My husband looks at me like asking...who are you. And how do you know this type of music. We've been together 14 years and we still find something new in each other every day. He and I are more alike than my twin sister (RIP) and I were. Your never too old to find your forever soul mate.
The dutch version
You better bring:
Hans, Jaap, Peter en Henk.
Guus
😂😂😂
En Piet
HAHAA I think I just peed a little
Jan
Italian version: “See every time you come around, you gotta bring: Nino, Sal, Joey, and Vito.”
aa yea it would be more accurate if it was “See every time you come around, you gotta bring: Alessandro, Giuseppe, Francesco, Antonio and Sergio”
@aa Yeah, sounds more like New Jersey names
LOL LOL YALL NEED TO STOP
“See every time you come around, you gotta bring Manu, Luca, Fra e Sandro.”
Lmfaoooo
Jewish version: See every time you come around
You got to bring Gad, Gil, Dov, and Shimon.
You better call Shimonnnnnn!!!!! Call em!!!!
David elijah
😂😂
🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
Awesome!!
2023 and this and the incredible Ms. Badu, I will always love!! I actually play this (no joke) each time I breakup with someone!!! I actually put it on repeat. Hahaha 🤣
I especially love when she sings “now when I ask you for a little cash, you turn right around and ask me for a$$!” And you know what: It’s true, I ain’t no cheap thrill! Love her and This song is a classic!
You go and get what's yours. Love ya!
So just how expensive are you? I'm not assuming you're a slut. Man want to pillow,women have material concerns. Such things have always been the case, but best done within a stable relationship. You don't sound much committed to that. You're young and despite our masculine efforts I've yet to know of a worn out pussy. Unless one is slung down like a mule. Such guys should confine themselves to cheap boring pornography. The really low class kind in a cheap dirty rat hole. With hairy unwashed foreigners........ewww I almost made myself vomit.r
Anyway in theory if you were inclined like a doper, an alcoholic or homeless and needed to rent one of those cheap rat holes. I ask because in writing a manuscript. I can't actually say "book" since they are digital downloads these days the literature will be informative, nasty to the point of a black box warning,funny, embarrassing and hopefully entertaining. I have you pegged from what I can see at $75 which from my research is a good price for a quality throw, you know a little @$$.
That doesn't apply if you're a crack 'ho, or a mether. I hear such couplings are disappointing have a high potential for disease and just plain pitiful.
So how close am I?
I agree 👍 💯 🙆♀️
Classic chemistry & collaboration.
Icelandic Version: See every time you come around
You got to bring Magnús, Sigurður, Guðmundur, and Gunnar.
🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣😆
😂😂😂🤣🤣
Every time I ask you for some Krona, you ask me for some góðan rass.
By far, my favorite Badu song. Love the message of dropping toxic baggage from your life.
every person's reaction when she says "you can't use my phone":
OOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOH!!!!!!!!!!!!!
that was cute ooooooooooooooooooh shittttttttttttttttttttttttttt right.
Imani Dominguez Facts 🤣🤣🤣👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾💪🏾💪🏾💪🏾💪🏾💪🏾
One of my favorite songs of all time. The greatest opening line ever!
Best opening line to a song evah, "I'm getting tired of yo $hit!"
Classic. Probably the best When A Woman's Fed Up song ever. Yes, even better than R Kelly's "When A Woman 's Fed Up"
seriously, the first time I heard that ending....blown away with awesome hilarity.
That type of old love that we cant to seem to understand because we are from this generation but looking back, these types of songs were so needed and so real, still to this day but this is just a masterpiece of an era, very well represented
The original “No Scrubs”. Badu the Queen.
Tlc
She had me dead when she said niggah 😂
***** calm down pope it's really not that serious
+PinkAngel2623 Correct, the same principle at work with the song yankee doodle, it was originally a british tune brit soldiers would sang making fun of americans during the revolutionary war(a doodle was slang for fool), but when America started winning the war, American soldiers started singing it back to them as a taunt(as in who's the doodle now) turning it into a patriotic song in the process
oh i didnt know that was its origin,very cool to know!
***** I have to disagree with you there.if you've ever read something that touched your soul, you felt the energy that the person who wrote it put into those words.everything and everyone has energy even if the vibrations are very low.And don't worry,i'm black but i hate being called nigga,i just dont appreciate it despite it's modern meaning.also,it tends to be more of a masculine verb which also is why i dont like being addressed that way.
+Joshua Lewis Me 2, as long as I have heard this song I never noticed that til now...I'm all late but that was right on time!
her voice is very soothing
💯
@@tyronegreen6165 Tyrone why did ms Badu make this song about you?
Her voice sing ❤❤
Very
This was the RESPECT song of its time
Kenyan Version: See every time you come around
You got to bring Kevo, Brayo, Johnte and Denno
Aaah mhan!! There's already a Kenyan version😂
You forgot Onyi na Peta (Peter) haha
LOL
And roba too
Jeymo too😂😂😂
I was a little white/Latina girl growing up in Canada and this was the music I grew up listening to because of my family! Music like this set such a strong foundation for me! Thanks to Miss. Badu I ain’t never put up with a mans bullshit! 🙌🏽
Also can’t forget the EXTENDED version of this song...now that’s it 🙌🏽
So sad that we don't have many artists now that can do this "Stand up in front of the band and just blow"! Greatness right here people! 👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾
I remember singing this song to my Pop when I was around 10. My mom thought it was the funniest thing. When I listen to this song now, it just makes me think of that particular memory. 😂
love her African attire
Or as she calls it "attire".
Iconic ballad.
One of the realist Neo Soul songs ever.
She's so beautiful & I didn't even realize she was pregnant (:
+Denisha Stewart Yup, with liddo Seven Benjamin.
Denisha Jay first time watching this.... 😶
A whole lot of people didn't realize it until the end of this! Looking at it now though, I can see hint of the belly shape throughout the video
That ain't NOTHING but the truth and it is a masterpiece
Arab version: see everytime you come around
You got to bring Mohammed, Abdellah, Yusuf, and Omar
Lmaoo😂😂😂

tyrone and his boys disliked this video!

+Jennai Shirow I love how the women go crazy like they all know Tyrone hahahahha
lmao!!
This song has become a woman's anthem and it always amazing me when I watch this video of when she first performed Tyrone. EB the Divine Feminine voiced our frustrations into a beautiful, groovy soulful vent that has become a timeless classic. Thank you Ms Badu.🙏🙏🙏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏✌💜
