People misinterpret "compliments" as "stanning" and its not the same. lol Chuck D know he on that bullshit with that tweet!!!

Chuck D has called out both Jay Z and Beyonce over the years on more than one occasion.

Chuck D tweeted this picture couple years back

alot of people retweeted it after that. He has also called out Jay Z and Kanye for their garbage music.

There are more o tweets and interviews he has done criticizing Jay Z as well but these are the ones I could find and recall quickly. I am inclined to believe that recent tweet is nothing more than ass kissing lies. He has bashed Jay hard over the years and shaded Beyonce. I honestly do not believe he actually believes that in that tweet you posted, really I don't.

Jimmy Jam posted a tweet shading Beyonce too lol I just think these celebrities kiss their asses I really do not believe they mean half of what they say.

All of that font, and no source.

What you believe is of minimal relevance right now, and always will be.

And by the way, that Queen/Beyoncé comparison is factually incorrect which makes both you and Chuck D look stupid. That is IF he posted it, and Google says no.

The links are actually in the post if you take the time to read it. thumbs up! You claimed Chuck never said anything bad about Bey and Jay and thats not correct. He has criticized them for years. I don't see why it matters anyway. If you like Beyonce thats all that matters.

Chuck D and Jimmy Jam called her out, flat out on the spot.

DMX, 50 cent and Keri Hilson have called her out as well.

We already know the late great Etta James called her out and Aretha has called her out in the past.

I wouldn't be surprised if a number of celebrities really don't care for her behind closed doors.

I'm over Beyonce showing her true colors to the world but I am curious to know what Chuck D and Jimmy Jam had to say in the past about her. What did they say?

Remember this?

In anticipation of some exciting @JanetJackson news let's refresh our memories of her greatness.http://t.co/r68jnNl4gf

Also, Jimmy tweeted some shade toward Beyonce in the past, can't find the tweets.

I posted some of Chuck D's remarks a few posts up.

-/ Please explain what comment is not true. Do you really think Bey has anything in her catalogue better than Queen.


Roy Thomas Baker and Queen themselves produced "Bohemian Rhapsody", so that would make five producers, not one. Also, the lyrics to "Run the World (Girls)" are incorrect. That's factual.


Personally, I think it's silly to constantly compare art, but especially stupid to compare the lyrics of the entire first movement of a progressive rock song to the HOOK of a dance song thirty-six years its junior.


That said, there are plenty of Beyoncé songs (including "Run the World (Girls)") that I enjoy more and play more than plenty of Queen songs.


-// Queen is a band with five people in it so yes five people put the song together however, how many writers worked on Bey's album! Hundreds of songwriters who have come up with better music than Bey. She does not have the ability to write a iconic tune and cannot find anyone to write one for her and no one who knows anything about popular music thinks otherwise.
