 RE: Beyonce should step down |
|
Feb 08th 2015 | 2
|
| why? Yonce job is to strengthen her brand |
|
Feb 08th 2015 | 8
|
 Man, she didn't step down for Etta James. She ain't steppin' down now. |
|
Feb 08th 2015 | 10
|
| she shouldn't have stepped down for Etta James. |
|
Feb 08th 2015 | 13
|
| I didn't think she should've step down for Etta either |
|
Feb 08th 2015 | 14
|
| Yonce draws viewers. |
|
Feb 08th 2015 | 20
|
| |
| i don't buy any of that. |
|
Feb 08th 2015 | 28
|
| Oh ok. |
|
Feb 08th 2015 | 37
|
 the fallacy is that the ye audience would tune out for ledisi |
|
Feb 08th 2015 | 39
|
| Nah, it's the fact that people will specifically tune in for Beyonce |
|
Feb 08th 2015 | 42
|
| they're more likely to tune in to see her perform one of her own songs. |
|
Feb 08th 2015 | 50
|
| RE: Oh ok. |
|
Feb 08th 2015 | 44
|
| You know what month it is.... |
|
Feb 08th 2015 | 48
|
| OH YES. |
|
Feb 08th 2015 | 52
|
| actually adds to it |
|
Feb 08th 2015 | 55
|
| if Ledisi was asked first then i'm all good w/Yonce performing. |
|
Feb 08th 2015 | 58
|
| there are orders of magnitude separating the fame of Ledisi |
|
Feb 08th 2015 | 49
|
| this must be your first day at OKP. |
|
Feb 08th 2015 | 53
|
| it's business. it's not offensive. |
|
Feb 08th 2015 | 56
|
| naw, it's offensive. |
|
Feb 08th 2015 | 59
|
| dense is not realizing ye could sing any song to the same effect |
|
Feb 08th 2015 | 54
|
| RE: i don't buy any of that. |
|
Feb 08th 2015 | 61
|
| thats the breaks. |

|
| igloo Australia gettin the best rap album nom. not new artist |
|
Feb 08th 2015 | 4
|
| Yeah its either her or Q |
|
Feb 08th 2015 | 5
|
| what hit did she have other than fancy |
|
Feb 08th 2015 | 12
|
| black widow. |
|
Feb 08th 2015 | 32
|
| that's Rita's song |
|
Feb 08th 2015 | 60
|
| nope. it's from iggy's album. |
|
Feb 09th 2015 | 86
|
| I detest the idea that someone can "take" black culture |
|
Feb 08th 2015 | 6
|
| taylor swift trademarks the phrase "this sick beat", other phrases |
|
Feb 08th 2015 | 33
|
| That is stupid of them to do that. |
|
Feb 08th 2015 | 7
|
| not sure why people keep expecting integrity from this award show |
|
Feb 08th 2015 | 9
|
| why not have Yonce sing some other song? |
|
Feb 08th 2015 | 11
|
| i'm betting on Yonce bringing Ledisi out to the stage |
|
Feb 08th 2015 | 16
|
| i wonder what she'll do. |
|
Feb 08th 2015 | 19
|
| i promise you they didn't think about it this hard |
|
Feb 08th 2015 | 17
|
| Yonce on the show is best for biz. |
|
Feb 08th 2015 | 18
|
| so that people watch the song instead of changing the channel. |
|
Feb 08th 2015 | 31
|
| Common and John Legend are in the segment too. |
|
Feb 08th 2015 | 34
|
| Exactly. |
|
Feb 08th 2015 | 38
|
| period. |
|
Feb 08th 2015 | 41
|
| yeah a duet with Ledisi would make more sense |
|
Feb 08th 2015 | 21
|
| or Yonce singing anything else other than 'Take My Hand'. |
|
Feb 08th 2015 | 24
|
| Why do people keep mentioning her beauty lol |
|
Feb 08th 2015 | 15
|
| One thing I can't buy is the ratings excuse. |
|
Feb 08th 2015 | 22
|
| its not an excuse |
|
Feb 08th 2015 | 40
|
| Folks acting like Ledisi sang the whole song. |
|
Feb 08th 2015 | 23
|
| thats true |
|
Feb 08th 2015 | 25
|
| ...and Yonce will likely only perform a snippet on the show. |
|
Feb 08th 2015 | 30
|
| Point being its not like Ledisi tore the roof down in the movie |
|
Feb 08th 2015 | 35
|
| but she sang it in the movie and is invited to this award show |
|

|
Feb 09th 2015 | 88
|
| People use the ratings excuse as if white folks are |
|
Feb 08th 2015 | 27
|
| did anyone complain on dido's behalf when elton john stole her shine? |
|
Feb 08th 2015 | 29
|
| Oh snap....Truuuuuuue |
|
Feb 08th 2015 | 36
|
| I'm sure Dido fans complained |
|
Feb 08th 2015 | 43
|
| i don't remember this huge backlash but at the same time |
|
Feb 08th 2015 | 46
|
| there was a massive controversy - but not about Dido. |
|
Feb 08th 2015 | 47
|
| well duh i remember that controversy but i'm staying on topic |
|
Feb 08th 2015 | 62
|
| the difference - Ledisi's 'snub' is nakedly about tv ratings. |
|
Feb 08th 2015 | 64
|
| k. did people complain about elton john taking her shine or nah? |
|
Feb 08th 2015 | 65
|
| yes. they did. |
|
Feb 08th 2015 | 66
|
| cool. |
|
Feb 08th 2015 | 67
|
| good counterpoint. |
|
Feb 08th 2015 | 51
|
| actually the hook for stan comes directly from a dido song |
|
Feb 08th 2015 | 63
|
| And to add on, Dido wrote the words and sang the first version |
|

| nah man. we need accuracy. lol |
|
Feb 10th 2015 | 179
|
| This shit makes it worse to me |
|
Feb 09th 2015 | 83
|
| Agreed. It's way worse now that we know she initiated this jack move. |
|
Feb 09th 2015 | 84
|
| TOTALLY with you on this.... like completely. |
|
Feb 09th 2015 | 89
|
| agreed |
|
Feb 09th 2015 | 94
|
| I'm sure she justified this by thinking it's not Ledisi's song, either |
|
Feb 09th 2015 | 102
|
| when she was introduced |
|
Feb 09th 2015 | 103
|
| Soon as I heard 'her momma sung it to her as a child', I was done |
|
Feb 09th 2015 | 125
|
| oh wow that's super shady on Yonce's part. |

|
| Max, you got any good Amazon reviews lately? |
|
Feb 09th 2015 | 87
|
| NOT a good look for yonce or yonce stans |
|
Feb 09th 2015 | 90
|
| worse look for Yonce - she ASKED to perform the song. |
|
Feb 09th 2015 | 101
|
| Beyonce knows no chill... |
|
Feb 09th 2015 | 105
|
| people arent being very smart about this. |
|
Feb 09th 2015 | 91
|
| Who said they needed to close the show though.... |
|

|
| i never want to be so cynical and jaded that this type of shade |
|
Feb 09th 2015 | 131
|
| but like, how do do we know this was an intentional slight? |
|
Feb 09th 2015 | 148
|
| . . . |
|
Feb 09th 2015 | 150
|
| but...how is that a "fuck you" to Ledisi? |
|
Feb 09th 2015 | 154
|
| it's shade. |
|
Feb 09th 2015 | 157
|
| NARAS didn't ask Yonce or Ledisi. YONCE asked. |
|
Feb 09th 2015 | 99
|
| not quite sure what difference that makes |
|
Feb 09th 2015 | 118
|
| oh ok. |
|
Feb 09th 2015 | 119
|
| Nobody's even talking about that, but now that you mention it... |
|
Feb 09th 2015 | 108
|
| the fact that you say Beyonce is cooning is problematic enough |
|
Feb 09th 2015 | 115
|
| Hmmm... the fact that you don't think so is problematic, imo... |
|

|
Feb 09th 2015 | 156
|
| So if I work at a job and have a white boss |
|
Feb 09th 2015 | 171
|
| she's from Houston. what is exaggerated? |
|
Feb 09th 2015 | 149
|
| 1) You're still not addressing anything I originally said. |
|
Feb 09th 2015 | 158
|
| all you've done is call her a coon without much merit |
|
Feb 09th 2015 | 162
|
| The "merit" is in reply 156. All this other stuff is you being obtuse. |
|
Feb 09th 2015 | 164
|
| ...and another thing |
|
Feb 09th 2015 | 92
|
| agreed |
|
Feb 09th 2015 | 95
|

|

|
| But these folks love Beyonce tho. |
|
Feb 09th 2015 | 109
|
| I'm sure that idea never crossed her mind. |
|
Feb 09th 2015 | 112
|
| Why do you all do this to yourself. The Grammy and Oscars ain't for y'al... |
|
Feb 09th 2015 | 113
|
| It would be ideal if all Black ppl AND entertainers skipped them |
|
Feb 09th 2015 | 114
|
| I get mad at the BET Awards & Soul Train Awards too |
|
Feb 09th 2015 | 116
|
| I doubt Ledisi singing with Beyonce would help her career |
|
Feb 09th 2015 | 121
|
| it aint the Oscars, I don't think the performance has to be true to the ... |
|
Feb 09th 2015 | 120

| it was shady. period. |

|
Feb 09th 2015 | 152

| nope, let her keep digging that hole |
|
Feb 09th 2015 | 174
|
| I would've gone with two-word statement: "Who's Ledisi?" |
|
Feb 09th 2015 | 142
|
| yes b/c that's what matters. |
|
Feb 09th 2015 | 145
|
| I don't think any of it matters. |
|
Feb 09th 2015 | 147
|
| you shouldn't say 'Yonce is shady' while posting from inside the beyhive... |
|
Feb 09th 2015 | 151

| okay, player. |
|
Feb 09th 2015 | 153
