I think Beyonce is on a pretty good track to be the next Whitney Houston, with Jay-Z as her Bobby Brown![]()

as much as I dislike Beyonce, she NEVER said she only makes records for black people, that is taking her comment so far out of context it's not even funny. If people are getting that from "I don't try to change my songs so everyone else likes them." they are a retard. She's saying her music is a black woman singing, and if you have a problem with black music then she could give 2 sh!ts about you. She sucks, but it's unfair she gets blasted on for people reading into her words and making huge assumptions.

good, never listened to her music anyway, and now i know why.
if she wasn't hott she wouldn't have an album to her name.
What would you think if a white guy said, "i make white records" ?Originally posted by: Suture
That's not what she said. She said she makes black music, that's all. People just love to put words into others' mouths.

This statement is taken way out of context. Making black records and making records for black peopel are two completely different things. She's only saying her music is reflective of her african american culture and does not compromise her style in order to possibly appeal to a wider audience.

Agreed. And I'm quite glad she had the metaphorical b4lls to say it, rather than put out some PC pseudo-truth that her PR folks were pushing on her. Far too few people are honestly speaking their minds nowadays.
yah "I make Black records" doesn't mean it's just for black people - she explains that right there.Originally posted by: y2kc
these comments on the site linked echo my sentiment...
"I?m not a big Beyonce fan but I feel like this was kind of taken out of context. This actual paragraph from Blender says:
The film, costarring Jamie Foxx and Eddie Murphy, deals with issues of race in romance and culture ? including the compromises a black group has to make in crossing over. Beyoncé says compromise is one thing she doesn?t have in common with Deena Jones. ?I make black records,? she says indignantly. ?I write records like I speak, and I don?t try to change my songs so everyone else likes them.?
"She never said anything racist or mean. She just said that she makes records to suit her; her personality, life, speech, etc."
