“She handed it to me. I was in my hotel room on tour and …she called me and was like, ‘Hey, I don’t wanna be in this relationship no more. I’m liking somebody else. That was my first love and my first heartbreak.”

He also adds however that he and Badu are still friends and there are no hard feelings.

“It taught me a lot of things, and when it happened I kinda really got into myself and really learned about myself and I was able to move on, and now me and E is real cool.”

Badu previously dated and had her first child with Outkast’s Andre 3000 before having a child with rapper the D.O.C. in 2004, and a third childwith rapper Jay Electronica in 2009.
