Spotted on the corner of Durant and Bowditch in Berkeley, CA, I caught a tagged up electrical box with the words “Bag Lady” on the front. I instantly knew this was alluding to Erykah Badu and her song of the same name. Badu’s lyrics describe a woman with some extra “baggage” that keeps her from forming relationships with those around her- so whoever tagged this obviously had some taste and an accompanying street education.

To take it back I thought I’d toss in this throwback video of 2000′s “Bag Lady;” for those of you who haven’t already had the pleasure.
