It seems like whenever celebrities go to Jerusalem, example [Sean Paul, will Smith] they have to go to the Wailing Wall, is it a celebrity trend or is it done because of religious belief? Any way Erykah Badu as you can see was in Isreal for a rare concert in Tel Aviv. On her arrival, Badu said she was here to bring “light and hope,” couldn’t name any Israeli hip-hop artists (not that there are that many), and said she identifies with Palestinian rappers as part of her tribe.”They use (hip hop) as a form of liberation, as a form of pre-resistance, as a form of therapy,” she said.She also defended Louis Farrakhan, the Nation of Islam leader who has been accused of anti-Semitism. pictures from Socialite
