Troll Erykah Badu at your own risk. The songstress is comprised of equal parts queen and bare-knuckle gangsta.
The latter personality leapt out of her when a wayward fan boldly criticized the “Next Lifetime” singer after she gave blessings to both the impacted souls from Astroworld as well as Travis Scott.
Bless you @trvisXX . Safe Journey to all the souls. I’m so sorry . 🤲🏾

While some fans understood where Badu’s heart was, others vehemently disapproved of Badu’s tweet and sent her insulting messages.

User @saviorisntme definitely triggered Badu because the normally eloquent and philosophical Badu bared her fangs at the critic.
“F— you h–,” Badu barked.
Not long afterwards, Badu issued a warning to her detractors to contemplate their words before coming at her twisted. The “Tyrone” singer reposted a tweet she sent out several years ago as a reminder to fans on how to comport themselves in her presence.
Look.. I choose peace but , say…
Don't walk up on me wrong..

Colt 45 and Newports if NEED be.. OK?— ErykahBadoula (@fatbellybella) June 1, 2014
Some fans took to Twitter to opine about the timing and appropriateness of Badu’s words.
