Soul eccentric Erykah Badu toddled over to Times Square recently to see what would happen if she started singing for passing New Yorkers.

Her anonymous busking gig wasn’t quite the cash cow you might expect, with oblivious pedestrians putting less than $4 in her hat in 40 minutes. Still, it’s quite the performance.

This is just the sort of thing Badu has been getting up to lately in lieu of actually writing an album – earlier this year she gatecrashed a live news broadcast in spectacular fashion.
