About

Live from a block party near you, Erykah Badu’s But You Caint Use My Phone is a subtle indictment of our technological dependency, wrapped in an extended ode to all the ways we love. Rooted in covers and remixes of phone-centric 2000s hits, Ms. Badu’s mixtape blends soul, pop and rap the way sides blend on a plate of soul food. Need an anthem to holla at somebody? Miss your lover even though you can’t stand ‘em? Is your freak too call-chique? Do you pine for something beautiful on the other end of the dial tone? From premium to prepaid, this collection of certified slaps radiates an unshakable warmth guaranteed to keep you entranced if your network can handle the signal. Whatever you do… don’t stare at the glare. – Vinyl Me Please
