Erykah Badu surprised Malcolm X High School in Newark, NJ by dropping by during their lunch hour to sing her debut single “On & On”. But that wasn’t the only surprise she had in store for Monday.

When she returned to her Twitter feed, she had a word to share on sexual natures.

Badu went on to say that it’s natural for men to be attracted and aroused by girls of child-bearing age, but that it’s not the fault of these girls for being beautiful. However, men should be responsible and taught not to prey on these young women. And instead called for greater awareness of these energies when it comes to how we carry ourselves in each other’s presence.

And drew many face palms for her would-be dress code

But remained on message

And then dropped this word

Some people tried to make sense of it…tried.

Ohana… means everybody in the human family can get the business!

And some folks just disowned Erykah and any adjectives agreeing with her. This was a bit harsh, sis.

And somebody’s momma weighed in with this word

Finally some facts in the mayhem.

And naturally, some people didn’t get it…naturally.

But will balance be restored?

So…what do you think of this all? Share your thoughts below!
