Well the allegation is that Parkwood Productions basically sits and plants stupid stories about Beyoncé moving to L.A., about to divorce her husband (?), not actually carrying her baby (?!?) etc... and that this is the only reason people pay attention to Beyoncé. Because of course, if a bunch of weirdos on a Prince message board don't like her, no one else can REALLY like her, they all have to be under media mind control
Beyoncé performs on tour which I would say is part of her job (along with music videos, especially those released alongside an album) as a pop musician. It was actually her X10 concert specials that were on HBO, as well as the On the Run Tour, but none of that is terribly unusual (though X10 was an interesting format). I mean, Katy Perry put her concert documentary in theaters. There haven't been any new L'Oreal commercials since mid-2013, so I think her professional relationship with them has come to an end. Beyoncé's lone Pepsi commercial this decade premiered one year and 11 months ago. The only thing you mentioned that emerged in the past year was the Toyota commercial, which I can't BELIEVE I hadn't seen as both a Beyoncé fan and a Toyota owner.
Basically what I'm saying is she isn't doing more than anybody else in her industry, probably less actually. I'd say someone like... Ariana Grande is just as prevalent, but nobody's complaining about her PR machine. | |

But beyonce has the most insane homosexual fans. They will kill anyone who doesn't worship her. Or throw racial/hate slurs that person ways for not worshiping queen bitch. Pistols sounded like "Fuck off," wheras The Clash sounded like "Fuck Off, but here's why.."- Thedigitialgardener

And exactly WHAT does that baseless and borderline homophobic generalization have to do with the discussion namepeace and I were having? If you want to get read today, just fucking ask for it instead of beating around the bush, it would save time. | |

Yes, Kid is not wrong here. I'm afraid of Americans. I'm afraid of the world. | |

I don't really like Beyonce that much and I, really, dislike Kid Rock's music, but that comment smells bad. If he's, supposedly, not into her body type then so what? Different people find different things sexy and sexually attractive. Just because it's not to his taste doesn't invalidate anyone else's taste. He's basically saying, 'Unless I find it sexually attractive, it's not sexually attractice." No one cares about what he finds sexually attractive. Is it possible to comment on a female artists's music without bringing up her physical appearance?
His comment were almost valid, until he brought that comment up.
Also, about his comment. Notice how all the iconic songs he brought up were rock songs? Does he know of any iconic pop, dance, rap, and r&b songs? Better yet, does he even like any of them? Also, if he doesn't like them, does that mean that their iconic status is invalidated simply, because he doesn't like them? Also, notice that all of the one's he mentioned were done by white people with the exception of Prince. Also, isn't Sweet Home Alabama considered to be a pretty racist song? If not, it's been coopted by plenty of racists. Also, Lynard Skynard proudly donned the Confederate flag, before the last surviving member publicly denounced it like 3 years ago. Freak that and freak Kid Rock. | |

I think this is possibly the most sensible thing I've read in the entire thread.
Kid Rock is one of the smartest people in the music biz and even if you don't like him or his music, you can't really deny what he's saying here. Beyonce makes disposable music. And it's not even GREAT disposable music. She'll be remembered because she's a superstar but she hasn't created a body of work that people are going to rave about in another 20 years. | |

go, Kid Rock. Lately the Beyonce worship on social media has gone out of control. Maybe do, just not like did before | |

Agreed. I'm also inclined to think that her PR machine is behind a lot of the social media stuff. They probably create accounts to keep the buzz going. I wouldn't be surprised. Everything about this chick is contrived and fake. Trolls be gone! | |

I knew the fix was in when Time magazine named her the most influencial person on Earth. What a crock. I think he overexposes his wife and is forcing this concept of her being a "legend" down the throats of the average listener. There's nothing spectacular about Beyonce. She's a common pop star but she has a very powerful PR machine that is hyping her up to be the second coming of Christ for some reason. I still believe that her people create bogus accounts and flood social media with threads about her just to keep her relevant. I seriously doubt people think she is truly that much of an amazing person. It's all smoke and mirrors. Trolls be gone! | |

I personally think they are in on his attics and they sit back and enjoy it. Its quite ridiculous she did not at least come out with a statement out of respect to Beck. It was cruel what Kanye and her fans did to Beck. What did he do to her besides when AOTY over her? | |

I agree with you. They laughed when Kanye did that but it was completely disrespectful. Imagine if someone would have interrupted her if she would have won the award. Their career would have been over. This is why I can't stand her. Everything about her is overexposed, overhyped and completely contrived. And to think that people are comparing her to Michael Jackson sickens me (literally). Trolls be gone! | |

Exactly, If someone did that to her or Jay Z, they wouldn't think it was funny BUT its funny when its done to others though? There are an obnoxious group of people. | |

Agreed. They were extremely disrespectful to Beck and took his moment away from him. Gives me another reason why I'm not a fan of any of those clowns. Trolls be gone! | |
