Matthew Knowles foolishly has an illegitimate love child just like Joe Jackson, which ruined their "loving tight family" images. Maybe Beyonce is seriously upset about that just like Michael was, so who knows how she would feel.

But still, she probably learned not to publicly comment about other families. She received backlash, so she most likely will not go that route again.

Yeah here.

More than likely because she almost started a family feud. Enough said.

Didn't some B-Jean girl or whatever her name is wrote that song, and her people paid her $100,000 for it. Something like that was posted here last year. She's an up and coming artist.

We all know Beyonce isn't that creative. She even takes credit for coming with the term "bootylicious" when we all know Snoop Dogg first used the term back in 1991-92 in the song "Fuck With Dre Day".

Bey says she wrote "Smash Into You". This is the original version sung by Jon McLaughlin for his album "Ok Now". The song was written by The Dream. Same lyrical content as Beys version, except SMACK is now SMASH.



Bey says she wrote the song "Halo". Here is Ryan Tedders original demo to the song. Only thing not used is the bridge, so how does she get writers credit?

Yeah, B.C. Jean wrote "If I Were A Boy" and planned on releasing it as her debut single. She said that she was shocked when her production partner sold the song to beyonce and he didn't even give her a heads up. That's cold. lol

Her "career" will go the way of J. Lo. Just give her a few years.
People are already losing luster for her.

I don't think so...

There is a huge difference between the Two, Despite all the criticism I think beyonce has some talents, JLO on the other hand should stick to acting , she is cannot sing....

The back lash is starting. I'm surprised it took this long, but it will happen soon, and frankly Destiny's Child reunion will be effected (and affect) it.

there is a dc reunion? i know B said at the vma's i think 1 time after all the hype about them breakin up that it wasn't the end aka it was just a ploy 4 them 2 sell more records

missmad said:

She's said they are getting back together. And it's a total ploy. It's only been five years or so since they called it quits. They may very well still owe a record to the record company, otherwise why bother? Who calls it quit for five years? It was a fancy way of saying, "We're taking a break while Beyowulf steals songs, lies about shit, and rakes in the cash."

ernestsewell said:

ah ok haven't heard that, it is, to the max right 2004? right maybe. i think the "we're breaking up" line was a tactic 2 boost sales and press- they knew they weren't going to but maybe the record company said u r not selling so they came up with that bullshit. fancy indeed not sure if they will esp after michele and kelly left MW entertainment

"Destin Fulfilled" was a joke in title alone.

Looks like PaPa Knowles ganked another producer for his producing credits and gave them to his daughter Beyonce. Rob Fusari produced Destiny’s Child’s hit “Bootylicious” and claims it was his idea to use the Stevie Nicks sample in it. In his recent interview with Billboard.com, Rob talks about now being one of Lady GaGa’s major producers and how Mathew Knowles told him to his face back in ‘01 he stole the “Bootylicious” credits for B.

Robs interview snippet when you read the rest…


Fusari tells Billboard magazine, “I came up with the idea to build a track using the guitar riff from Stevie Nicks’ Edge of Seventeen.

“I figured I’d put the guitar loop on there temporarily, and later go into the studio with a guitar and replay it, because I’d learned, after sampling Stevie Wonder’s I Wish for Will Smith’s Wild Wild West, that I didn’t want to lose 50 per cent of the publishing (royalties). I vividly remember telling Mathew Knowles, ‘Mathew, you got to book me into your studio and let me replay that riff.’

“He didn’t want to do it. So 50 per cent got cut for one note. That whole experience was bittersweet for me.

“I remember watching Barbara Walters interview Beyonce about Bootylicious, and she told Barbara about how she came up with the idea for the track.”

Fusari, who went on to help Lady Gaga launch her pop career, insists he was brushed off when he complained about the interview, adding, “I called Mathew – which was a big mistake; I got emotional, and I apologised after – but I called Mathew and said, ‘Mathew, like, why?’ He explained to me, in a nice way, he said, ‘People don’t want to hear about Rob Fusari, producer from Livingston, N.J. No offence, but that’s not what sells records. What sells records is people believing that the artist is everything.’ And I’m like, ‘Yeah, I know, Mathew. I understand the game. But come on, I’m trying too. I’m a squirrel trying to get a nut, too.’”

Maybe Bey just needs a new manager instead of that crooked ass daddy of hers.

I saw Beyonce at KFC, she was snatching drumsticks from innocent children. SHE MUST BE STOPPED NOWAH!!!

Yeah. But at the same time, it ain't all about Papa Knowles. Maybe, when she first started out her career, she didn't know anything about getting credits and stuff, but now she's over 10 years deep into the game. She learned about the business more and more. Too late to act innocent and naive.
Basically she went with stealing credits and claiming those songs as her own creation. I don't think she herself wanted to do it from the very start, but she let him go and do the dirty work probably after he told her "You got to play your cards right to get ahead." "Independent women", my ass.

I gotta add this one phrase about this whole thing: Karma is a bitch.

Maybe, but the only way that will happen is if a younger girl/woman comes along who is better than Beyonce. That hasn't happened yet, and probably won't for a long time.

That's a sad statement on the music industry, if you ask me. It shouldn't be hard to find someone with more talent than Beyonce.

Cinnie said:

Bullshit. She flat out says, "I wrote this song....." She even said that recently in a concert about "Irreplaceable" or "Single Ladies" - neither of which she fucking wrote. Lyin' ass bitch. Even the MFing wiki page on "Irreplaceable" doesn't say anything about her writing it; rather she wanted to change vocal arrangements, add drums, and sing the chorus higher. That's not writing. Ne-Yo was going to make it into a country track, although it was originally written from a male perspective.

She's just so full of shit.
