If I received something like this, had the money and no reason to stay in my current location, I'd move.

As an Af-Am woman, it just pisses me off that another black woman would say this shite. We get enough of that as it is from other people; why the frak do we need to say this stuff about ourselves?

But you can be interesting and contrary without resorting to (IMHO) hate speech, which is my main problem with her. Especially if someone who considers themself to be a lyricist.

I wrote this in reply to someone else.

Yeah, but Nicki Minaj also thinks it's quite alright to insult women in her lyrics by calling them nappy headed hos and suggesting they need a perminator; she also called a rival n-word monkey. And we know she is not talking about light-skin or white women.

The only time I feel Beyonce is ever being authentic is when she talks about her career and family. All the rest of it I feel is just lip service.

I'm not a Beyonce fan at all. But criticizing her for saying this is even a bit much for me. She and Jay-Z have been in a committed relationship for years; obviously this makes him a big part of her life.

Relaxers...don't miss those fuckers. Hated those bastards since my hair got burned out when I was six. (I actually lost my hair three timed)

I don't think plastic surgery is a bad thing. Nothing wrong with a nip here and a tuck there.

Right!

Lil Kim... I just can't. I always thought she was pretty black woman.

Really?! I didn't know that. Why am I not surprised?

Huh?

I thought Beyonce's performance was good, not great. My brother, who is almost a stan, thought it was the best thing ever!!!

Her hair is stunning! I sooo envy it!

LOL! Well done!

Relax..I don't think she can. I'm sure there is a lot of pressure to stay on top and she has a few artist right now nipping at her heels.

I think you and Alex both articulated what I thought was wrong with this photo.

Of the entertainers that are supposedly triple threats (Beyonce, Madonna, Britney, whoever else), she was the only one that I felt had true acting talent and like you said it's been wasted.

I agree with you, but she is a name. Most people know Alicia Keys and to get the project going they probably needed one.
