Beyonce's lyrics are disgusting

[Anonymous]

I always cringe at the ppl like OP and some of these replies. I’m not even a true Beyoncé fan myself, but idk why it’s so weird to believe others are. Beyoncé minds her own business and makes music for her fans. No different than a lot of the other artists out there today. She consistently performs well, including being a good dancer and is clearly a hard worker. As for the ode to HBCU, so what. It was a theme and a way to unite her AA fan base. It was a shout out to black culture. Would you prefer she shout out Ivy League schools. Are you that joyless that it actually bothers you. Taylor Swift has the same cult following and she can’t dance or sing plus has a mean girl attitude. City Girls are ratchet with no real lyrical ability. It’s a shame that OPs message is basically, you can’t support HBCU if you talk about sex.

I think she is digusting. I clicked on this because she's so gross was curious to see anyone even liking her. She's low brow life.

Lady Gaga is 10 times the artist Beyonce ever was before she became a parody of her old self.

Ummm ok

And I’m a Lady Gaga fan but even I know this is a dumb post.

Who do you consider perfect and up to your such high standards, Kenny G?

I don't think they are the white ladies of DCUM. I actually think this site is inflitrated by legit white supremacists (like, overt, with messages being spread on social media).

Agreed. Except I suspect that they overlap.

I'd hate to go to bed with anyone that is so humorless and cold they are offended by how "dirty" her lyrics are.

My ex-wife was probably one of the founding members of the Bey-hive. I always said that I thought Beyonce was a hypocrite for portraying herself as a champion of women's empowerment and class only to be half naked and gyrating in every video. If she wanted to do it, I'd happily and lustfully look, but don't pretend she wasn't using sex to sell records. It wasn't until our four year old asked why Beyonce had on a "bathing suit" with high heels in the Single Ladies video that she finally caved and said perhaps the videos don't send the best message.

What a weird non sequitur.

Of all the videos, really? That's a pretty standard dance leotard.

Exactly.

What does that poster tell their child about gymnast, ballet, or swimming. They obviously don’t go to the pool or beach.

As an anti-poverty advocate, I think it's a big part of the problem.

I think it's a shame Beyoncé and Jay haven't used their tremendous platform to effect social change. Think about the impact they could have if they did a PR campaign aimed at teaching black tweens and teens that it's cool to NOT have babies until you're 30 and have seen the world/lived your life/had an adventure and settled down...like they did. Better yet: tell everyone to at a minimum graduate from high school.

Sigh...everyone liking this post and this poster are so ignorant. If you actually knew anything about black artist or culture you would know there are tons of black artist who promote what you find acceptable, ie Kendrick Lamar, J Cole, Black Thought, Killer Mike, Common, Lupe Fiasco, Logic (and these are just rap artists bc I’m going to go out on a limb and say you hate rap music and think it’s all the same).

How do you know they haven’t effected social change? Bc they aren’t in front of a microphone yelling it so you can judge? They both put their money toward resources and ppl who can help make changes.

Google the following...
Jay-z and Kaleif Browder
Jay-z and Trayvon Martin
Beyoncé and Freddy Gray
Beyoncé donates to Chime for Change (which is a health education program for women)
Beyoncé has Formation Scholar Awards (gives scholarships to HBCU for arts, music and black studies)

Now please tell everyone how you have helped change the world other than shopping at Whole Foods and driving a hybrid.

Beyonce is an entertainer who has made it big because of her looks, appeal, good marketing and her talent. She is not the leader of the free world, she is not a religious leader etc as such she is not responsible for being a role model. She has always worn very sexy and inappropriate clothes, she us married to a rapper, she is going to be singing vulgar lyrics. Singing vulgar lyrics, wearing sexy clothes doing suggestive dance moves - this is her bread and butter. If you don't like it, ignore her.

Personally, I would rather she was grinding to a handsome man instead of Jay-z. That would be visually more sexy.

Agree. Look at what Sheila Johnson did with BET. She likes to talk about empowering black girls, yet she “empowered” them by showcasing the most filthy smut on BET. She cares about being rich, not much about black girls.
