1. Erykah Badu
July 8
Both on the stage and off, Erykah Badu has an unmistakable flair. The singer-actress from Dallas, Texas has been stunning audiences since the ’90s with her unique genre-bending sound combining soul, funk, hip-hop and more. Erykah’s eccentric style has also turned her into a modern-day fashion icon, making appearances at Fashion Week and the MET Gala. This summer, she’s embarking on the “Unfollow Me Tour” with a stop at Madison Square Garden.
