Reading EW's A+ (Seriously, an A+ review, possibly the only time I've seen them give that review) made me cringe. It's a fine album, possibly a great one if I give it more time and spins. But the review was basically "YASS KWEEN: The review." God, that magazine has fallen so hard.

I bet goddamned Steven Spielberg never even got to be in the Holocaust!

Yes, because they're still leading the process. Calling Beyonce a collage artist is disingenuous and undermines her talent. She's not Girl Talk or something and just making a patchwork off of other people's work (in the case of the sampling of Yeah Yeah Yeahs and Soulja Boy, it was simple ass-covering because there

We'll call this one a draw!

….I don't get it.

Indeed!

So weird. Even stranger that we never found out who did it.

I believe Bradley Cooper had one day to shoot all of his scenes. Not sure on Banks. For "F&G," it's so relient on two core sets of cast members, it'd be tough to pull off.

You read it wrong. I was asking him to open up his window and yell something out to the common people on the street. I don't take pop culture or WHAS that seriously.

I imagine it would probably cost a lot to get everyone together and they're all way too busy considering Rogen, Franco and Francis-Daly are screenwriters and movie-makers now. Trying to get those schedules in-line would be hell.

It's a triple banger!

Too busy getting in a Twitter fight with Maron.

why not just open up a window and yell "I don't get this and it's not my type of humor!" and be done with it?

It's like 97 minutes. Even less of a time commitment!

If that's your criteria for whether an artist is good or not, then you must have a very short list of them you listen to. Even Kendrick Lamar has a minimum three or four credits on a song..

Dude - do you not read? Most of those were credits to the original songwriters of the songs they sampled. Souljah Boy had nothing to do with the song besides one line they took from one of his tunes. But they have to cover their ass because the music business is extremely litigious.

I remember when he said "Machete," the for-the-most-part non-hit movie starring Danny Trejo was going to incite a race war between illegal immigrants and Americans.

She has writing credits on every song, much she's had since "4." So unless you're in the studio with her, as said, that's a bold stance to take.

What's your source on this? Not saying you're wrong, but that seems like a pretty bold stance.

So because Beyonce previously made vapid pop music and praised artists like Nina Simone have already made albums based on heartbreak and the plight of the American black woman, she should not touch upon it?
