Yes! I pulled the race card. Yes! I did it. I am sick of the double standard in the music industry. If Beyonce or Alicia Keys or Mary J Blige lip synch just ONE song, the whole world will demand to cut off their necks. Shitney Spears lip synchs all the time but everyone gives her a pass because she is america’s sweetheart.

The media outlets have all refused to even bring up anything how britney cheated on Justin and lied about being a virigin. Everyone is acting like they know nothing. Even when Justin confessed that he was soaking up Britney stretched out vag*na when they were both lying about being virgins, the media ignored the story. If this was Beyonce, the world would have gone mad and black blogs (ironically) would have been the most violent critics of Beyonce.

Race is playing a big part here. Some of you want to be politically correct and ignore this burning issue but I will SPEAK THE TRUTH AND SAY IT OUT LOUD. Self-hating pigs

@ prophet

did you just take a diss at my mother? oh no you didn’t white boy. Why don’t you ride your redneck ass back to the bushes in Australia? and you have some nerve calling Beyonce a thief when you people stole land from native aborigines. As if that was not enough, you went ahead to enslave, torture and massacre those people in their own land. SMH

and who said I was African American? the fact that I am black does not mean I am African American. There are millions of black people who come from out of America ok? ignorant sack of horse sh*t

I also didn’t say was my role model. I was simply exposing a double standard in the music industry and it is the TRUTH. I don’t need to argue with anyone about third.

The fact that you are white explains a lot. And this white asshole had the nerve to call beyonce a ghetto p*ssy. lol. Lord have mercy.

lmaoo at the bey comments. @ afrika u are a mess and prophet, u went innnnnnnn….i personally dnt understand why she lies..we know she can entertain but why lie??? i honestly never understand how jayz , bey, mathew, rihanna and them work.its like lies are part of the norm just like paying for everything..do they not have any self worth??? i dnt understand people who live such lives just to be on top which in reality they are not..smh…

i cannot wait for christina..i was listening to one of my fav albums for the moment and that is gaga and was saying to myself, doesnt she at times sound like christina..i.e on teeth and dirty rich… those tracks just scream christina to me..idk why..

I’m sorry wrong is wrong and People call Britney out on her crap too, so does the Prophet. This is why Britney is the icon and Bey still searchin for hers, she still stealin and fakin. Bey can sing, so could Whitney and she was still and icon and she’s just now gaining writing credits, she didn’t have to lie and steal to do it. Please, these songs Bey was getting were hits either way before she changed an I. Put her grammar correction but don’t say she wrote the song. When she performs, yall saw the dvd, she kept saying “And so I wrote a song abou it” LMAO had me KML…

I agree with Afrika. Well said! the level of hatred for black artist is unbelievable I always said that if a black artist were to go crazy lik britney, the media would crucify their asses. no redemtion. its sad but very true!

Britney is Britney she’s the Queen.

I cant wait for this new Christina record, it’s gonna be her make it or break it, i dont think she’ll have another chance after this, she should make Stripped 2.0

I am so excited about this new Christina album and I appreciate her for always trying to do something different. Christina hasn’t really said anything about her album besides who she’s working with. It’s her collaborators that keep hyping the album up. The album would’ve been released this fall, but she signed on for that movie and wanted to promote her album so the album is just waiting to be released. I think FutureSex/LoveSounds was finished for nearly a year before he released it, because he was doing some films. She’ll be doing more softer vocals as well like she did on her Greatest Hits songs, but I’m sure she’ll have a few big ballads as well.

Proph,

It’s really annoying when the comments are flooding with insipid arguments over BEYONCE? Get a life perhaps, BEYONCE fans? Who the hell cares if she got Grammy awards.. she’s sure FAKE…. LMFAO

enough of the arguements
britney is great
beyonce is great
beyonce has lied in the past but i believe she’s written quite a bit of her material (ESPECIALLY DURING THE DC DAYS) and xtina oversings and strains her voice

beyonce don’t

all 3 have their flaws but they are all legends in the making

whether u like it or not
end of stroy!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
whether u like it or not

I think the stans want to distract the commentary from the issue of beyonce lying about her songwriting credits.

Beyonce doesn’t write her music, and lies about it. She is known for it in the industry (even though her pr team and management do a good job of keeping her “nice” image intact). Here’s a quote from a commenter on another blog (@ prophet: not trying to advertise another blog, just want people to know where they can read for themselves):

I mean are we really surprised? She’s always stealing song credits and ideas, yet people claim she’s “sweet”. Sorry, sweet people don’t continue to claim someone else’s hard work. Her ASCAP award should be investigated because she probably didn’t even write the songs she got an award for, and she was NOT the first black woman to win that award either. Her and her management keep using that bragging right when actually Kandi Buruss won that award way before her.

Someone posted this today on a message board, related to this. I thought it was quite interesting:

“I thought it was widely known that Beyonce is NOT a writer. I have my own personal reasons why I can not respect Beyonce as an artist. As a person she’s the sweetest thing and she’s a great performer but her handlers are ruthless. I’ve known about their practices for years. 2 of my former writing partners were in the first group Gyrl Tyme which ended up becoming Destiny’s Child. B. Cox, the girls from Gyrl Tyme (Destiny’s Child) and a few others in that circle grew up together in Houston. Andretta Tillman originally managed Destiny’s Child and when she died Matthew began to strong arm the group and became ruthless with his business practices. It’s one of the reasons why Bryan doesn’t work with Beyonce and her camp and if you know the history of DC you’ll know that B.Cox and the other girls all had business relationships because they all came up in the industry together. He’ll work with LeToya & Kelly and if Latavia were to call he’d have her back too but you’ll rarely see him working with Beyonce.

I remember when Beyonce was starting I am Sasha Fierce and one of the A&Rs came to the studio and told us Beyonce was looking for material for her album. The catch was you had to give up 30% of your publishing if you wanted to work with her even though she didn’t write on the song. Now as a writer you only get 50% of the writer’s share and if there are other writers on the project you have to split 50% with the other writers. So with Beyonce getting 30% of the writer’s share off top then that leaves 20% of the remainder writer’s share to be split between the remainder writers and if there are 3 other writers credited then you come out with 6.6 % of the song which isn’t much. The thing is you’ll still see your credits in the linear notes along with her name and then she gets on stage in her concerts and talks about how SHE wrote the song. Most of the time when a song is submitted to her it’s already written, demoed, recorded and arranged. She gets the song and rearranges the vocals and then she’s able to get her writing credit. Vocal arrangement is apart of the creative process but there is no way she should take the majority of the publishing off of vocal production alone.

So that’s how she’s able to get away with getting her writing credit. It’s not uncommon for artists to do this though but most artists don’t take all the credit for the songs in their interviews. With Beyonce she’ll tell the story of how she was walking on the beach and the song came to her…etc and that’s the thing I can’t get with because that’s not the truth. It would be one thing if she sat in on the sessions with the writers and wrote the songs with them but she doesn’t do that.

Anyway, that’s the gist of how things work behind the scenes.”

I just don’t get how all these people will pop up to jump on Prophet about Beyonce but they dont comment on bulldog shit else unless it’s another BEY YOU REALLY CANT WRITE post, lol.

^ROB … TELL EM ABOUT IT!

@ afrika

I find it hilarious that someone who played the race card on a gossip blog to defend the modern song-writing equivalent of Milli-Vanilli is offended at the use of the phrase “dark continent”.

You have no more respect for blacks than beyonce “I’m creole” knowles.

You will argue anything to make her/yourself look right, or her/your critics look wrong.

Personally, I find your mental gymnastics/blatant hypocrisy amusing.

For your information, the phrase “dark continent” has historically referred to africa.

The europeans who first came to africa called it “the dark continent” 1) because the peoples of africa were darker than europeans, and 2) because europeans were long ignorant of the continent’s interior geography.

The variety of skin colors in africa come from the western AND eastern slave trade/colonization.

I probably know more about the history of “the dark continent” than you do. And as much as I’d love to give an ignoramus like you a history lesson, it would be beside the point.

The point is, you’ve named yourself after a continent OF BLACK PEOPLE (whatever their current varieties in skin color), AND YOUR IDOL WOULD RATHER BE KNOWN AS CREOLE. Unless of course she’s accepting an award or distinction having to do with being black. Then being “black” is okay.

And yes, I know that creoles are really black. The problem is, historically, creoles have distinguished themselves from blacks, and have insisted that they are a distinct ethnic group (although “creole” is really a culture).

Good job Prophet, even it was fun sometimes just to throw the facts in his/her face, but he/she went too far, anyway good job!

Afrika, your stanning for Bey makes you look stupid. Especially for you to question Britney’s status as an icon. Her album Blackout went platinum with 0 promotion, except for her awful MTV awards performance. She is the #5 selling artist in the U.S. over the last decade. Bey isn’t even in the top 10.

Beyonce is an amazing artist. Britney is as well. Get over it.

OMG will yaw please STFU about this Britney and Beyonce mess 1. Beyonce is a great singer, but she is NOT the only singer we have in this game and she ain’t the best that’s a matter of an opinion 2. Britney sold a lot of records she ain’t the first and she won’t be the last 3 Britney and Beyonce won’t be making music forever so shut yaw mouths!!! GOODNESS they are all talented in their own right go sit down somewhere and read a book better yet go get a life instead of living Beyonce’s and Britney’s!!!! Sitting here arguing over them just makes yaw lives even more miserable because guess what nobody gives a f***!!!!
