As severe winter weather sweeps across the midwest, lots of travelers are finding their travel plans unravel. One of those stranded travelers was Erykah Badu. She got stuck at DFW airport and delivered a characteristically funny interview. Gotta love Erykah.
Erykah Badu clearly passed her gift down to her daughters Mars, 5, and Puma, 10. The singer-songwriter posted a video of the trio singing Colbie Callat's "Try" on Facebook.

In the video for the new song "Q.U.E.E.N.," Janelle Monae and Erykah Badu play intergalactic rebels.

Of course this will inspire comparisons to the most famous natural-haired singer/rapper in music history, but Monae is paving a legacy all her own.
