Beyonce - Formation (New Song + Video Directed by Melina Matsoukas)

[Booker T Garvey]

It isn't false. He said Beyonce is the most successful artist in the past 15 years.

Success does not just equate to pure album sales. Those arent "facts". It's many things that define success and Beyonce has consistently done that while remaining on top for 15 years, which was his point.

boy you're over there just struggling with the english language:

dverb
adverb: most

1. 1.
   superlative of much.
2. 2.
   to the greatest extent.
   "the things he most enjoyed"

so to say that somebody or anybody is the "most" anything, you're saying that they are definitively the greatest.

this is not a statement of opinion or open to subjectivity - beyonce is in no way shape or form the greatest artist of her generation.
when we say ELVIS, the BEATLES, and MICHAEL JACKSON dominated their era, we judge them by their scope of hit records and albums, how influential they were over the entire culture.

Beyonce' has influenced the entire music culture? she's shattered sales records? singles? album sales? concert ticket sales etc etc...<<<<< these are what we measure great artists by.

you can't just sit at your computer and change universal laws because you're over there hugging yourself and squeezing your eyes real tight

The only person who seems to be making things up to fit a narrative is you. She's done all of that. Hell she's been consistently selling out arenas for 15 years.

When did Britney do that? When legends speak on the icon of this generation, they don't say no damn Britney Spears.

Damn so apparently beyonce stole some scenes from a documentary the director was going in on Twitter.

she did not steal it. they sold the rights to sundance and beyonce legally bought the rights to use its imagery in her video. they didn't go to him/them cause the rights weren't his any longer but sundance's.

 

[Rawtid]

Scrolled through my timeline wondering why am i seeing memes about red lobster?

I know red lobster marketing is scrambling tryin to figure how to take advantage of this lol

The clean version says something about her buying her man red lobster or something. This song is stupid as fukk and she's so fake ratchet for sales. People hype up anything from her just because it's her.

I like my baby hair with baby hair and afros

You strut that fro baby girl like a boss, fukk the haters

Red Lobster>>>>>>>>

oh okay so beyonce and jay-z going the pro black route its so crazy how it came out they donated 1.5 million to black lives matter than a video drop next day

What else can you do when you get called out by the great Harry Belafonte,the son of Fred Hampton? Would yall rather them ignore the voices of those who deserve to be heard,along with the voice of the voiceless?

And this song is cheeks,but you gotta admire Beyonces confidence,it can sell just about anything,no matter how trash

i talk down on black female artists yet i'm the one who created the KING post here on the coli (their album is out BTW)

www.weareking.com

Beyonce has arguably the most loyal musical fan base of any artist in the history of music - gay men and corporate black women. she'll always have a career, i've said this on here before as well...even in this song talking about "I SLAY" this shyt clearly isn't for us (straight black men)...

but what we measure ALL artists greatness by, is their cultural impact musically, sales and classic albums - stevie wonder doesn't have the sales either but he recorded three albums in a row and ALL of them won album of the year, two of them back to back - that's unheard of. they still play those songs in commercials and movie trailers to this day...

beyonce' ain't doing that, and especially now, she's not even doing as well as katy perry and damn sure ain't seeing taylor swift (look it up!).

she's overrated. if that pisses you off that ain't my fukking problem.

Dude you have my props for posting about KING, but cotdamn shut the fukk up.

Stop typing annoying long ass essays. If you dont like her, we got it the first time. KEEP IT MOVING. Plain and simple.

Try to ride the black power movement after years of selling your soul and body brettas

Y'all corny with that Illuminati mess

 

[Busby]

The video finna have cacs like

That shyt is too black for TV.

But the song itself is garbage to me and I like Beyonce

Pretty much how I feel about it..the video is black excellence at its finest

But the song itself is..ehh...like I can't put my word on it. It's different then any record she dropped. Especially since it's the first single.

And at how she Deebo'd Coldplay's Super Bowl halftime show to be more about her.

"i like my baby hair with baby hair and afros"


that doesnt make any sense. we all get what she's saying, but read that sentence and tell me it makes sense
