Wow umm why couldn't beyonce do something like that, I would be like heck ya go girl.

Although I don't think there is anything wrong with nudity there are plenty of people that do and what she did was very improper as I see it, she could strip in her own back yard or get the rights to block off the street and spend a day doing the shoot the right way.

She was known in the late 90s but fell off the face of the earth. Just trying to shock people and resurrect her career

Actually shes been around for a while and was big in the 2000's. I like her music and think shes very talented. I guess you have to listen to the record to get the political point she is trying to make. Not a publicity stunt, if you know r&b, you know Badu.

I see no problem with the nudity but the location is the problem here. I don't care how bad u wanna prove you're a proud black woman... Somebody died there. Haven't seen the video to see what "point" she's making but it's probably not that good.

the police are so jacked up. They say they're not pressing charges because they didn't catch her????? Hello, she filmed herself! Incriminating evidence is on the internets.

So if I stripped naked walking down the street I wouldn't get popped for indecent exposure? Or do you have to be a washed up publicity ***** to get away with it?

Sorry I don't see anything wrong with this. It's sad that everyone is afraid of a little skin.

I got some of her albums and she has some good songs. Not bad background music when youre kicking back having some drinks. If you look her up Im sure youll find some songs you recognize.

I dont think thats the main issue I think its the loction. The fact that she seemed like she got shot at the end of the video, I could see that rubbing people the wrong way as well. My sound is jacked up and I couldnt hear they lyrics so I dunno what the song is about. But things I noticed to guide my opinion...

1. Title of song
2. Showed the "x" in the road
3. End shot of high rises

Maybe its just me or people are looking into things too much but If music is "art" thats what is intended. I wouldnt say it approve or disapprove just if it were me making the video Id feel weird about the location and possible reaction....and being naked around kids...if it were a white dude he be locked as a sexual predator fwiw..
