I must be the only Orger who's never bought a Beyonce CD(and never will). I listen to her "music" on the radio, and it's like fingernails on a chalkboard.

Yes i'm stirring up shit. So what i'm bored and feel like it. I'm not a Beyonce hater. I actually like her and Destiniy's Child but I heard a song has leaked called "creole" that she recorded. Does this mean she is no longer black?

When is this chicks time up? I do like her as i've said before but she is over exposed in my opinion. She's been on top for about 6 years already. When will the madness stop?



She is creole from her mother's side. Are you not familiar with the creole culture of middle south and southwest, particularly Lousiana and Alabama? It's not in any way meant to imply that she's not black, Pookie wink!

I just saw the video for "Ring The Alarm". It reminded me of Kelis's song "I Hate You So Much Right Now" The angry black female image just does'nt work for her, And the song is GARBAGE.[b]

I agree w/ what a lot of you have said already - yea Creole is still Black BUT the need/desire to make a song about it w/ such "interesting" lyrics is downright strange & pretty pathetic...
heart prince I never met you, but I LOVE you & I will forever!! Thank you for being YOU - my little Princey, the best to EVER do it prince heart

Come on yall! There is nothing wrong with honoring your heritage - it does not always have to mean your pretending to be anything-- I am a black woman - When I fill out by application I put African- American --- However, My Grandmother on my father's side is a full Cherokee and Grandfather on my mother's side is a full Cherokee and if I'm going to honor the ancestry of my African forefathers and what they went through as slaves it would be dead wrong for me to deny my Grandparents heritage because they went through the SAME THING they were booted off their land and slaughtered when they didn't want to comply so I don't give a FUCK what people say - I KNOW who my family is and I love them dearly and my children will know their past and when people walk in my house theyt will see my past HONORED - So, if you think I'm trying not to be black or whateva you wanna say Fuck it and you! -- I'm sure Beyonce' feels the same way!




I'm feeling you, SweetKreme. But check this out: My white American friends NEVER walk around, chest out, and proud of their heritage. They never had a reason to. They weren't oppressed because they were a majority - nobody ever took anything (culture, dignity, respect, etc) from them. However, you cannot deny the implications of oppression and how it has affected most Black Americans. We are seemingly in a constant flux of motion to find ways to assuage our self-hatred and one those methods is by associating our African heritage with others - somehow, we think, if we can just weed out the African root, we can be accepted. We can finally be pretty. We can have manageable hair, straighter noses, lighter skin, all Western European notions of beauty. The funny thing is, is that Africa is the root! - of all humankind! It's such a horrible case of irony. Most Black Americans are ethnic amalgamations anyways - why does there have to be a distinction of what those ethnicities are - you're still Black and to some, you're still a Nigger. If Malcolm X, who was redder than Beyonce and whose momma was lighter than Beyonce's momma, referred to himself as a Black American, then being just Black is good enough for me.

Here is what I don't understand. Beyonce, is someone that can truly sing, yet people still dog her. Yes, she can be over the top at times and yes, she might be and will suffer from the over exposure that the MEDIA will and does put on everybody, but when all is said and done she does have natural talent. If you were to ever attend one of her concerts, she is one of a few artist to sing LIVE. This is truly an unheard of thing in today, music industry. People can talk about how Mariah can sing and how she can hit those hi notes, but all those high notes don't prove a thing, that is all that u do. Mine you, I am in no way saying that she is the greatest singer in the world....in my opinion, nobody is....I am just saying is that everybody is looking for little things in order to bring one of our own down.....This my friends, is the "Crab in the basket", mentality at its best....

Us black folks have been so dogged out, denigrated, beat on, oppressed, (insert any adjective you see fit) throughout the course of our history in this country, that in order to make ourselves feel better or special and forget our original ancestry, which America takes great delight in making us feel ashamed of, love to associate ourselves with other cultures. By the way, I'm mixed with Cherokee and Irish. Whoop dee damn doo.



Me, Beyonce and most Black Americans, are just that - black. She needs to stop trippin'. I guess this issue still gets me heated.





And I think that's the problem....We as a people are always labeling oursleves according to how society sees us. I am of mixed heritage, and there is no way in the Sam T Hell am I going to say that I am just part of one race, when in fact I am made up of many. I feel that if I do this, then I am not being true to myself as well as to others. You may say, "Whoop dee damn doo", about what makes you, you. That is your choice. But,why should I deny, the fact that my grandfather came from China and that my grandmother came from Venezuela and that both of my parents came from Trinidad just to please a society that is made up of a bunch of people, who are themselves, trying to find themselves.

I know you were referring to your friends but I have met and been aquainted with many a white person who loved to talk up their heritage.

-Worked with a lady who loved telling folks her ancestors landed on Plymouth Rock

-Worked with a girl who loved telling folks about her mixed Italian and French heritage

-Worked for a guy who always talked up his Irish heritage


By contrast I worked with a girl who was Black and Japanese who really didn't want to discuss it and when asked she said she was Black (even though the white people in the office assumed she was Puerto Rican).

Great post!!!! By the way, Malcolm showed us we don't need acceptance by whites to validate us a human beings.

SweetKreme, there's nothing wrong with embracing your full heritage. But you know as well as I do, a lot of our people have issues with their blackness. And they do things to try and be "less black". I have nothing but scorn for them. Whatever happened to "Black is Beautiful" and "Say it Loud, I'm Black and I'm Proud"?

The beat is okay--sounds like it could be Rich Harrison again--but Creole pride aside, I just hate the lyrics.


Baby, I see you
That look in your eyes
Hips that keep shakin’
Mysterious style
Exotically tempted
Familiar to me
That Creole sexy
Is all over me

So all my redbones get on the floor
And all my yellowbones get on the floor
And all my brownbones get on the floor
Then you mix it up and you call it Creole
(repeat 2x)

Creole
When I look real good
Creole
When-ever I talk real good
Creole
Whenever I bounce real good
Just in case you wanna know
Its your secret

Creole
When she look that good
Creole
When-ever she talk that good
Creole
Whenever she bounce that good
Ladies if you wanna know
Its your secret Creole

Bad bad, bad bad yellowbone
Bad bad, bad bad redbone
Bad bad, bad bad brownbone
Bad bad, bad to the bone

For all of my brownbones
That make a good broth
And all of my redbones
That make up the sauce
The yellowbone flavor
Is familiar to me
Mix it all together
It’s a delicacy

So all my redbones get on the floor
And all my yellowbones get on the floor
And all my brownbones get on the floor
Then you mix it up and you call it Creole
(repeat 2x)

Creole
When I look real good
Creole
When-ever I talk real good
Creole
Whenever I bounce real good
Just in case you wanna know
Its your secret

Creole
When she look that good
Creole
When-ever she talk that good
Creole

Ladies if you wanna know

Bad bad, bad bad yellowbone
Bad bad, bad bad redbone
Bad bad, bad bad brownbone
Bad bad, bad to the bone
(repeat 2x)

So all my redbones get on the floor
And all my yellowbones get on the floor
And all my brownbones get on the floor

Bad bad, bad bad yellowbone
Bad bad, bad bad redbone

When u embrace your entire heritage you number one, can fully embrace yourself. 2. You have a better sense of self, which is something that we as a people are lacking and 3. The healing can begin and the self hatred can stop. The reason why you have so many of us trying so hard not to be black is due to the fact that they do not know their own heritage and lack a sense of self. Instead of "having scorn for them", one should point them in the right direction. Doing nothing is just as bad as doing the wrong thing. Singing the words, of James Brown is cool, but only if you know the entire story. For me, I am just a proud man, who happens to be of mixed heritage.

Well, I'm Creole and I'm definately black. All creole is is a mixture of black and french. On my mother's side of the family, most everyone is from Louisiana, which is where many creole's come from. I'm not color struck or caught up in all of that shit, cuz people are people. My father's mother was half Native Indian as was my mother's father. So, Native Indian and Creole are in my racial heritage BUT I am still black.


Precisely. I think smetimes it gets so confusing because collectively we tend to focus on our British/Irish-Black-Indian roots as black Americans, and not the other western half of the country that comprised of French-Blacks prior to the Louisanna Purchase. It was simply diffrent colonial system with a different heritage, a French heritage with a touch of Spanish mixed in with the African, and not to mean that folks weren't black...nooooo. It's simply the French backround (to which they were/ are strongly tied still in food and language) as opposed to the British and Irish backround that is more commonly found on the east coast of the US. Nothing more or less.

A few month's ago, Just out of curiosity, I asked my very young biracial son what race he was, And without hesitation he said "Dad I'm Mixed". I'm very glad that he's embraced both sides of his culture. I'm sure Beyonce's mama has told her stories about her Creole relatives ever since she was a little girl. Which probably gave her the idea for the song. I don't think she's turning her back on her black heritage.

I agree with you. I don't think it's wrong for someone to embrace their full heritage. I don't even know my full heritage, because I was adopted, and my records were kept private. It still bothers me to this day, not knowing why I look the way I do. sad

But in Beyonce's case, I think she likes attention and money, and is hoping this song will get her just that. Maybe if the lyrics were finely crafted, and not absolutely rediculous, it wouldn't be so bad.

Beyonce is not the brightest bulb in the box. We all know that. That's why this song isn't making the CD. It was a bad idea in a time where people are so rigorous politically correct that it will be received negatively even though its not meant to be. Let's just let this die. Its kinda wrong to diss unreleased music. There's usually a reason its unreleased.
Ironically, "I Can't Take No More" - an unreleased song from her last CD - is probably my favorite song by her. biggrin

i dont think really people want to label themsevles... as Im black or Im white... i think thats how society is... and its like society puts labels on people... even when you fill out an application... thats society making you put yourself in a category..... but also it doesnt matter what race you are... even ifyou are half black and half white... if you look black people are going to percieve you as being black and treat you as if your black... so the only thing a mixed person is doing by braging they are half white... is making themselves look bad infront of african americans...

Lady Cab Driver International Dictionary definition of Black-Americans:

Great-great-great-grandma was mistress to massa: had baby- baby grew up with slaves cuz the Mistress of the house wasn't having it. Baby married slave: they had baby: that baby ended up traveling west to find sanctuary with the Native americans. Then ended up having babies with the Native Americans. Then the White man who just happen to be outlaws from the U.S. establishment that had blacks traveling with them who by the way were some off springs of the Africans & Cicilians who mixed when the African king (you should know his name) traveled to Southern Italy. They all got together and had a big party blahblah blahblah and spread to all parts of the United States!!! Black-American = African, Native American, British, Irish, Italian, German and so, on and so on, and so on..... MUTS falloff falloff whatever bored

The beat is okay--sounds like it could be Rich Harrison again--but Creole pride aside, I just hate the lyrics.


Baby, I see you
That look in your eyes
Hips that keep shakin’
Mysterious style
Exotically tempted
Familiar to me
That Creole sexy
Is all over me

So all my redbones get on the floor
And all my yellowbones get on the floor
And all my brownbones get on the floor
Then you mix it up and you call it Creole
(repeat 2x)

Creole
When I look real good
Creole
When-ever I talk real good
Creole
Whenever I bounce real good
Just in case you wanna know
Its your secret

Creole
When she look that good
Creole
When-ever she talk that good
Creole
Whenever she bounce that good
Ladies if you wanna know
Its your secret Creole

Bad bad, bad bad yellowbone
Bad bad, bad bad redbone
Bad bad, bad bad brownbone
Bad bad, bad to the bone

For all of my brownbones
That make a good broth
And all of my redbones
That make up the sauce
The yellowbone flavor
Is familiar to me
Mix it all together
It’s a delicacy

So all my redbones get on the floor
And all my yellowbones get on the floor
And all my brownbones get on the floor
Then you mix it up and you call it Creole
(repeat 2x)

Creole
When I look real good
Creole
When-ever I talk real good
Creole
Whenever I bounce real good
Just in case you wanna know
Its your secret

Creole
When she look that good
Creole
When-ever she talk that good
Creole
Whenever she bounce that good
Ladies if you wanna know
Its your secret
Creole

Bad bad, bad bad yellowbone
Bad bad, bad bad redbone
Bad bad, bad bad brownbone
Bad bad, bad to the bone
(repeat 2x)

So all my redbones get on the floor
And all my yellowbones get on the floor
And all my brownbones get on the floor
Then you mix it up and you call it Creole
(repeat 2x)

Creole
When I look real good
Creole
When-ever I talk real good
Creole
Whenever I bounce real good
Just in case you wanna know
Its your secret

Creole
When she look that good
Creole
When-ever she talk that good
Creole
Whenever she bounce that good
Ladies if you wanna know
Its your secret
Creole

Bad bad, bad bad yellowbone
Bad bad, bad bad redbone
Bad bad, bad bad brownbone
Bad bad, bad to the bone
Ohh LORD! Someone was very wise to pull that song off her album. Most light skinned people I know (Including my baby sister) are very offended by the terms redbone and yellowbone.
