Singer Erykah Badu took to her Twitter account early in the morning on Wednesday to share her very-candid views on the Minister Louis Farrakhan. Rather than taking aim at some of the divisive comments that the faith leader continues to utter, she labeled him a Super Hero and a beautiful, brave being.
Louis Farakahn is a SuperHero. Thats A beautiful brave being, she wrote (note: the ministers name is Farrakhan not Farakahn as noted in her tweet; spelling and grammar kept in tact).
Clearly confounded by the message, Twitchy asked, Since when are racism and anti-Semitism beautiful or brave?, referring to the Nation of Islam leaders seemingly contentious and fiery commentary about whites and Jews, among others.
In an effort to further highlight the curious nature of Badus pro-Farrakhan tweet, Twitchy also noted that, last year, the singer tweeted a message that the outlet believes the faith leader would patently reject.
In Aug. 2012, Badu tweeted, Race should be taken off of EVERY form. We are all Americans. To this, Twitchy responded, Criticism of the race card is just the sort of thing that would send superhero Farrakhan into uncontrollable fits of rage.
Later, following push-back on Twitter, Badu seemingly defended her praise of Farrakhan.
So, it seems Farrakhan has the support of a Grammy-Award winning singer, despite his intensely divisive and troubling language, which TheBlaze has extensively documented.
Well, at least she's right about that, 100% right.
Broken watch, meet blind hog. Occasionally, they both get something right...
Having spent decades working in the music industry, the only other people in America who are as uselessly self-loving and delusionally self-important are the actors in Hollywood, the vast majority of which are hopelessly brain-dead über-liberal wastes of oxygen and real estate.
Pathetic jokes upon themselves that they are, they make the perfect Pied Pipers for the rest of the Liberal imbeciles, not to mention the perfect punch-lines for intelligent life forms. The only thing I like about most musicians and actors is punching them in the nuts. Hard.

Looking for a comeback after buying the Brillo Co?
Define “famous.”
Define “famous.”
If it’s not Classical, 80’s Rock, the group ‘Deadbolt’, ‘MutantSurfing.com” on my computer’s Internet Radio, or my TV’s Music Choice channel ‘Soundscapes’, “I don’t know you!”
I do not pay any entertainer to open their yap, other than to sing music! Once they do, IF I had any music of theirs, it’s gone. Goes back to somebody speaking, under a tent, about what happens when you put your money in something, that you become part of that thing.
“Deadbolt lyric line: Buy a gun! Get a guitar!”
Ghetto mind set.
She’s about as famous as the guy in the “that thing got a Hemi?” commercial, LOL.
Racist...trying to make an Afro-wig come back......
Singer Erykah Badu .
Who?I never heard of this woman.So why the hell is she so famous?
On the other hand every A-Hole can have an opinion and she sure qualifies.
She the one who did the video striptease in Dallas while walking the Kennedy assassination route.
One of the people in that photos is famous.
The other one is still alive.
“...send superhero Farrakhan into uncontrollable fits of rage.
Really??? You mean that ISN’T his natural, default state?
"I've seen used dust mops in better shape.....under the couch"
That’s what I thought. And what a stupid name - excatly how does one pronounce that?
I have always thought she was dreadful in.every way - she got famous for her political posturing.
