Erykah Badu names her new baby. Meanwhile, Ne-Yo inches out of the closet.

Wednesday, February 4, 2009


Erykah Badu on Sunday continued her trend of birthing oddly named babies by rappers to whom she isn't married. The singer and new beau rapper Jay Electronica gave birth this past weekend to a baby girl and named her Mars Merkaba. Mars joins Seven Sirius (Andre 3000's son) and Puma Rose Sabti (the D.O.C's daughter) to make the Badu cypha even more complete. In her Twitter blog, the couple said they and the baby are doing well.

Badu is such a trooper. She had a home birth with a midwife that lasted about five hours and that she didn't use painkillers. Yikes! Could you imagine?

Editorial aside, congrats to Mom and Dad.

I already know what you're thinking. Yes, that is a blond wig Ne-Yo is wearing and no, this image has not been Photoshopped. The signer and producer recently sat with British pop artist Lady GaGa on some UK television show and really showed his rainbow true colors.

Honestly, I think he looks better as blond than a balding 40-something posing as a musician in his 20s. What say you?

Okay, besides being able to sing, what's separating here from being an around the way hoochie baby mama?! 3 kids, 3 different baby daddies - if she worked at Walmart not one person would be giving her a 'GO ON GIRL'.

Erykah is grown. As long as she is paying for these kids and not me then I don't have a problem with what she does. But delivering a baby without painkillers. In the words of Foxy Brown, "Big Pussy Like Soprano".

Neyo....."come out, come out, wherever you are!!" LOL!! Let him lose his mind like everyone else in the business.

YABG - Long time no comment on the blog. Welcome back. You're right, but to the victor goes the spoils, I suppose.

BPS - YES! You better quote Fox Boggie!!! And LOL @ "come out, come out where ever you are."

Antonym - Crawl out from under that rock and come here more often. You'll get most everything you'll need. LOL.

I caught an old cribs episode w/ne-yo (my son was watching)...I was like, mmm he's a little sweet. My son was like, you just figured that out? lol

Guess I'm a little slow.

As for Ms. Badu... I got nothing.
