Erykah Badu threw some FUNK IN MY FACE!!! Check it out HERE!!!

I rubbed shoulders with a legendary sister of Neo-soul was in London this week!

Last night I had the pleasure of attending an exclusive set of soul, funk, Jazz, Old skool House and hip hop provided and supplied by DJ Low Down Loretta Brown aka ERYKAH BADU!!!

Organised by Hip hop specialist The Doctor's Orders Erykah Badu was tearing up the dance floor at the intimate bar and club East Village in my favourite hang out Shoreditch.

Now I'm going to be honest here... I had no idea that Erykah Badu was a DJ and I was shocked!!! Not because she's a DJ, not because she's a FEMALE DJ.... but because this is ERYKAH BADU!!!

I was not ready for this. I was expecting to be swaying to slow jamz all night not bopping my head to funk and hip hop!

But this event was definitely an eye-opener and insight into the world of miss Badu.

I think every DJ shares a piece of themselves with us when they jump on the decks and we could definitely hear alot of Erykah Badu's influences in the music she provided and played!

The vibe was amazing and it was wonderful to see such a variation in age, ethinicities and culture come and party with miss Badu.

As you can see below the star knows how to work her way around the mixer and also Serato :-) ( see I know some DJ stuff lol) but I definitely prefer her as a singer over the DJ-ing as there was quite a few clangs and over use of the loop function... but *shrugs* HELLO IT'S ERYKAH BADU... she could have played all the tracks backwards and everyone would have loved her for it!

DEFO HAVE TO GIVE PROPS TO THE DOCTOR'S ORDERS TEAM for puting on a great event ( even though i think she should have sang a lil aswell) The team are also doing what they can to arrange a second date for this exclusive event! So check them out!!!
