Looking angelic in a satin - white silhouette draped over her garbs, an incense stick is pursed between her lips as she enters - upholding the placidity of her performance.

A periphery display of buoyant moves and frantic dispositions is grimaced on Erykah's face as she juggles her booty vigorously and laps up facial expressions to her synchronized jaunts. Which, at times, were ridiculed by Erykah as she laughs to herself. But it wasn't long before she sheds her glad rags as she approaches 'I want you' and says, "I have been thinking about you all day. I wanted to sing this song" and screams, "London!"

Her notoriety is reverberated through her unique philosophy and values; beautifully depicted in 'On & On' as she chirps, " What we are gonna do is go back' and hits on the sonorous vocals and acrobatic ranges - an accomplished filled with grace and might.

A pedestal of talent she flickers with her mixer and drum pads adjacent to her and continually reaffirms with the crowd, "Sisters, how y'a'll doin? Brothers! Y'all all right?" With a full fist in the air caricaturizing the revolution sign, she recovers a few golden gems- 'Cleva' and 'Bag Lady. 'Bag Lady' is a melted down version, with Badu snapping her fingers to the beat and the percussions drawing in. Perched on the edge of the stage, she is elevated (with the help of robust male) to hover over the crowd clasping the hands of fans.

As the summer temperatures plummeted, Erykah confirms, 'This will keep you warm' the goose pimples still appear from her empowering dense vocals of 'Green Eyes'. The encore spiritually intensifies the lyricism of the track. The back drop turns green as she indulges into the narrative emotions of the song. Completion leads to a grand "Thank you" and a salute from the neo-queen. A perfect finale for those who are now green-eyed for not attending.
