[Spoken Word: Erykah Badu]
Here I am, Miss Badu
Not Big Sean, but I don't fuck with you
It's 'cause I'm from the D, the other D
But Detroit has a special place in my heart
Creative, deep, rooted, organic, cosmic
Fantastic, futuristic, ancient, musical
When I think of Detroit, I think of these things
There's something in that dirty water that gives it its flavor
There's an invisible intelligence that runs through the streets
Like an underground rooting system
Millions and billions of memory of atoms of all of the beautiful music that has been created there
And I've seen it еvolve into things only felt in the hеart
I know this to be true
Thank you, Berry Gordy, for that little house
Thank you, Stevie Wonder, for always calling me and reminding me that it is there
That thing
I always long to reconnect with it when I lose my way musically
Thank you, J Dilla, for your peculiar, peculiar intelligence
Yeah, Detroit just has a magic, and I know it to be true
Not Big Sean, but I don't fuck with you
Live from Badubotron, Nubian phenomenon
Detroit, where the Nubians grow

Big Sean

Sean Michael Leonard Anderson (born March 25, 1988), known professionally as Big Sean, is an American hip hop recording artist from Detroit, Michigan. Sean signed with Kanye West’s GOOD Music in 2007, Def Jam Recordings in 2008 and Roc Nation in 2014. After releasing several mixtapes, Sean released his debut album, Finally Famous, in 2011.

Fresh off one of the coldest features of the year on Drake’s “All Me,” Sean released his second studio album, Hall of Fame, on August 27, 2013. Sean’s third studio album, Dark Sky Paradise, was released in 2015 and earned him his first No. 1 studio album. The album featured hits like the banger “I Don’t Fuck With You”, which peaked at #11 and went quadruple platinum, and the Drake-assisted “Blessings”, which went double platinum.

TWENTY88, a group composed of Sean and Jhené Aiko, released a self-titled album on March 28th, 2016. The group was titled as such as both artists turned 28 during 2016, as both were born in 1988.
