It's not just Beyonce. Everyone nowadays have high debuting albums and then sink like a stone. It's the new norm.


That's right.Beyonce's CD would have sunk even if she had not made those comments.

She doesn't make 'black' records; her writers and producers do!

Every interview she always bigs herself up.

'i write and produce my own music'; she must have said this comment in 30 interviews i've heard.

NO YOU DON'T BIIIIAAAATCH!

Um no. I did not check your profile but if you expect someone to answer you in a non-hostile way, you should act non-hostile. People have different taste, yet you rather insult people by calling them haters because they feel there is way better musiv out there than this Beyonce bullshit. Go study some Monk, Fitzgerald, Byrd, Fagen, Marley and come back and holla at me about how great Beyonce's music is. Everybody knows that if she wasn'r pretty, we'd of never heard of her ass.

Pop star Beyonce Knowles has sparked controversy by saying she only makes records for black people.

Since the Deja Vu singer made the astonishing statement sales of her new album, B'Day, have fallen by 70 per cent in the US.

Beyonce, 25, said in an interview with Blender magazine: "I make black records. I write records like I speak, and I don't try to change my songs so everyone else likes them."

The singer has also admitted she can relate to celebrities who attack the paparazzi.

Beyonce said: "It must be really scary to have your children in front of all these people. That's your kids. That's when Mama Knowles is gonna be punching some photographers!"

Meanwhile, Beyonce was booed at the MOBO awards in London on Wednesday night when she failed to turn up to collect her three prizes.

The Crazy In Love singer received the most awards after her single Deja Vu won the Best Song and Best Video categories and she was named Best International Female at the ceremony - which recognises music of black origin.

Why do I feel that all of this Beyonce "bashing" is contrived? Anything she says is INTENTIONALLY taken out of context? Why? Fans of other artists( I am trying not to name names) intentionally try to tear down her music to build up THEIR artist.Could it be that the audience was disappointed that she was not there. I don't think that they booed HER. I have said this many times. It doesn't matter if you LIKE Beyonce, but the woman is TALENTED with a capital "T" and no one can take that from her. All of this effort to call her "country"(as if something is wrong with that), talk about her hair(as if other artists don't enhance their hair with wigs/weaves),etc. Her album is wonderful, different, risky and very enteraining. I've never heard her bash another artist. Just why are people wanting her to fail? I know people have a right to not like her. There are many artists that I don't care for, but I don't hope or want them to fail and I certainly don't want them misquoted or lied on.

actually from what I understand is that she was completely misquoted.


the drop is probably just from disinterest more than these so called comments.



Ditto. smile
God doesn't just tells me how much he "LOVE's" me, God shows me how much he "LOVE's" me. Both telling and showing "LOVE" means to "LOVE". They go hand in hand. You can't have one with out the other. Something is spoken, then followed by an action. That is
