Iconic Dallas musician Erykah Badu is working on a collab with DART to put artwork on city buses and trains.
DART said their partnership with the Grammy Award-winning singer kicks off with a sweepstakes leading up to her annual birthday bash where four lucky riders and their plus-ones will receive access to a VIP section, private entrance, exclusive swag, and a DART monthly pass.
To enter, riders need to visit DART.org/Badu, 97.9 The Beat, or Majic 94.5 between Jan. 16 and Feb. 10 and enter for a chance to win.
“Collabing with DART has been fun - new for me and new for them,” said Erykah Badu. “I love my hometown and riding DART is still cool.”
