Mask Off & On: Hear a Damn-Good Erykah Badu and Future Mash-Up
Mask Off & On: Hear a Damn-Good Erykah Badu and Future Mash-Up

Listen to a Damn-Good Erykah Badu and Future Mash-Up

Lenny Kravitz, Grace Jones, Lauryn Hill, Lion Babe, Thundercat, SZA & More Rock The Afropunk Festival 2015 in Brooklyn, NY.

Analog girl meets HNDRXX

Mash-ups come and go, but we'll always take a moment when Erykah Badu is in the mix. Today, we bring you a freshly dug up blend from producer, boywolf, featuring two seemingly incongruent hits. On one end, there's 2017 smash "Mask Off." On the other, Badu's debut single and classic in its own right, "On & On."

Keeping the spaghetti trap western in tact, Badu's vox laces the cut with her hallmark drawl, timeless as it is effect-less, emboldening the Dallas/Atlanta connection by way of a new generation and texture. Badu released her own "trap&b" opus in 2015, when a half-joke got serious in a hurry and manifested as her But You Caint Use My Phone mixtape, produced by Zach Witness with a contribution from Andre 3000.
