VIDEO: SOLANGE - “SANDCASTLE DISCO”
Saturday, August 16, 2008
Solange Knowles released her video for her second single, “Sandcastle Disco” on MTV’s FNMTV on Friday. The video is really cute, with a lot of special effects. Solange is very much fashion forward in this video, much like the looks of her exclusive promo shots (which you will see soon). I’m diggin’ it.

I’m not mad at her!!! I’ve been really impressed with what she’s been putting out lately. And I am a HUGE fan of ‘B but I’m glad that their musical styles are different!

#23 lol I agree about the “Maybach” part it seems like that’s what all artists will flaunt these days smh, it’s nice to see a video where it’s really laidback and carefree but still really unique enough to keep me interested. I’m looking forward to buying her album!!!

^^^Sorry but comparisons to Bey will never stop.
I like Solange but her sister is such a superstar that she will always be Beyonce sister.
And there is nothing wrong with that.
I like the song and the video is cute. I just realized how much her and Bey look alike. Them Knowles are unstoppable.

Do your thing Solange!!! I am loving this video and the song. It is a breath of fresh air in an industry full of music that sounds the same. She’s bringing something different and you can tell that it is coming from a genuine place (i.e. This is the music that she really wants to do)! So I will definitely be buying that album!!

I can’t believe I’m saying this, but I loved it! I must admit, for years I wrote off Solange as being wack and needing to just stay in her corner because a “Beyonce” she’ll never be, but this girl is actually really good! There’s no doubt that girlfriend can sing, but I just hope she gets the right push. I sincerly wish her much success.
Solange is truly being herself and it doesn’t seem forced. Like someone mentioned earlier, I’m glad her and Bee styles are totally different. I heard another song of hers on the radio a few days ago that I think has Beyonce featured in the chorus and I’m actually looking forward to her album. Go Solange!!

I hope everyone saying they’re going to buy the album, ACTUALLY DO. She deserves it, and I hope she gets some Grammys.
She proves she doesn’t need T-Pain, Akon, Timbaland, etc to sound hot, even if music like this wont give her any spins, atlease people still support her. Incredible.

Truth Be Told
Saturday, August 16, 2008 /
I read once that her mother said, “Solange beats to her own drum.”
The video was very colorful video ( Special effects cute), song was nice…but I’m not feeling it… it is nice to see she doesn’t play follow the leader…even though her and Ashanti both have similar videos I can blast the Ashanti’s ‘Good, Good’ but with Solange I couldn’t….
But I RESPECT the individuality….
Nourish the soul nourish the mind

That was one, hot, ACID TRIP of a video. I was expecting to see Skittles candy falling out of a rainbow in the sky, it was so colorful. Loved it!
And as for cool symbolism…how about the “Elephant in the Room” at the end. WHO could that be alluding to? Hmm…
LOVED it, Solo!! Big sis B might have the “Michael” spot on lock, but you DEFINITELY deserve that “Janet” slot. Talent once again, runs in another black musical family!

I was one of those people to say “aint nobody checkin for Solange”, but she has proven me wrong. I really have been digging her interviews with personality, her style, and her type of music. I could not keep my eyes off the video, it was too cute!. Solange go get em, keep showing hopefully the real you, and make good music. Some Knowles might want to watch out

I’m just happy she touched up her edges. The make-up/editing in this vid is amazing b/c she actually looks cute to me.
It’s nice that you all go so hard for her b/c she doesn’t really get any play anywhere else ( I notice you guys do that for alot of artists that wouldn’t get any shine otherwise, keep it up). I wish her the best.

Even if your not feeling Solange you have to give her props. She did what Kelly and Michelle weren’t able to do, break out from her sisters shadow. Most female artist get compared to Bey, unless its like Alicia Keys someone who has created her own niche, they fall short, but there is no need to compare Sol and Bey’s music. They are distinctly different.
I’m lovin the sixties style to the music, the video, her clothes. She’s doing the damn thing!

Oh and I’m glad she decided to leave Q-Tip’s part out. Not knocking him but the song is better without his verse. Maybe its for the remix IDK.

You all have to be joking…… if she wasn’t Beyonce sister she couldn’t get a recording contract in a million yerars!!
This video has the same theme as the last one and she is not a great singer. What happened when people really had to sing to make a record, like Aretha and Whitney? We have really lowered our standards!

Solange was always cool with me, I ain’t go out and get the first CD even though I liked that “there is this guy…” song, but I for sure will be getting this one and if the first one is on sale I might grab that too.
But the fashion in this video is amazing, of course very much Ms. Ross but if you gotta be inspired by someone Diana isn’t a bad choice.
And yeah her voice is definitely acquired taste, but she doesn’t come off as forced and made/ groomed for celebrity as her sister, which I hope is not a gimmick cause it works. and if she keeps it up she’ll find herself in the ranks of my fashion faves coming in third to Kelis and Rihanna, go Sol-Angel.

Loving the new video from SOLANGE so different from anything right now. I hope she gets the recognition she deserves cause she is a real talent. She has totally separated herself from what her sister does. Just for that I will be by her album on AUGUST 26!!!!!

I like how she is coming into her own…The video was different, the outfits were daring and hot. One negative that will probably mess up all the positives I pointed out…Im not crazy about her voice. Sorry…Its my opinion. But I will support her. If they can support Rhi Rhi, Ill support you Sol!
And she looks alot like Bey in someone these shots.

I think this video will actually spell some success for Solange by the very fact that she came out with it. On her last album she didn’t get to release a second video-
but only one. And I know Geffen is behind her helping her release it the way she wants to. She said she directed the video all by herself and I enjoyed it. Even though she’s doing something a little different from the industry right now- she still makes her music enjoyable and her videos fun to watch. Go Sol-angel!

You know im ALL down for the singers like Whitney and Aretha..but Really people Not EVERYONE is going to be a power house..Im getting a little tired of seeing those type of comments like: What happen to real singers..I really dont get it. True their are some people in the industry who can not sing and are soley famous because of image, but there are some people who may not be able to hit a note like mariah or whitney, but have talent. For example Diana Ross?..Da Boss! I mean have you ever heard her belting out songs? No, but she is still a legend and Icon! Im in no way saying embrace complete mediocrcy, but give something new a chance.

Because Solange must struggle with being in her sister’s shadow the absolute worst thing she could ever ever do is come off as low browed. And she’s succeeded at doing just that with this video. She’s almost acting out all the lyrics, which is fine if you’re singing about your booty but not at all cool if you’re trying to be highly artistic. Also, she just looked really realy lame and amateur through the whole thing…the make-up and weave looked like she did it herself ten minutes before each shot. This looked like a bootleg version of her first video.

I like the fact that Solange is trying to bring something different to the table. I am a very versatile person & I’m pretty much open to anything new. Not saying that her genre of music hasn’t been done before but I don’t always crawl to the same types of music. I actually like this song and while the video isn’t a big difference from the first it’s still cute.
Of course not everyone is going to like her as an artist or her music but so what that’s life. EVERYBODY aint gon’ like you.
I’ll be picking up her CD when it arrives next week.
Solange you have a new fan.

OK SO HERES MY ISSUES
I LOVE THE SONGS, LOVE THE STYLE BUT ITS SO FORCED. EVERYBODY IS TALKIN ABOUT HOW SHES COMING INTO HER OWN BUT THIS ISNT WHO SHE IS. ITS NOT AUTHENTIC… AMY WHINEHOUSE IS AUTHENTIC AND SHE JUST DOES HER, BUT SOLANGE IS JUST TRYIN TO GET OUT OF HER SISTERS SHADOW AND THIS VIDEO WOULD BE DOPE IF THEY DIDNT HAVE EVERY SPECIAL EFFECT EVER MADE ALL IN THIS ONE CLIP “LESS IS MORE”.

Is it just me, or are the Knowles family some of the best (copycat) marketers around? It’s the same old ploy, the sister is a huge superstar whose more mainstream and the lil’ sister is anti-mainstream? Where have I seen this before…Jessica Simpson & Ashlee Simpson…Jessica was America’s Sweetheart, just like Beyonce’, while Ashlee was the punk-rocker, who was anti-sex appeal and all about “the art,” like Solange is attempting to be. I’m sorry, I’m not feeling it. I find it hard to believe that Solange is some champagne sippin’, weed-smokin’, “I do what I want, how I want ‘cuz I’m me” artist, not with her manager being her father! Wake up ya’ll because the video is colorful, doesn’t make it different. In the words of her brother-in-law, “we don’t believe you, you need more people” LOL

(@ #74 yeaaa….i doubt that would be likely in ANY way, shape, or form.)
anyway…
i gotta admit…Solange finally won over my respect.
at first, it seemed like she was just coming out as a “little beyonce” and she realized that wasn’t working.
this time, she has found where she belongs, with this type of music.
not to mention her hilariously sarcastic personality…i think that’s what fully won me over. Solange is quite a character. (”Yes, I LOVE getting up at 5 in the morning and singing.”) Definitely something I would say to the stupid tv show host who, before she was set to perform, said to her, “So, I know its pretty early in the morning, but i’m sure you’re up and ready!!!”

I just want to be honest in my opinion and not be call'd a hater,cause this is the comments. Rite?
Sunday, August 17, 2008 /
Uhm.. I respect her cause she’s doing the damn thing, just not for me. Props to that Solange.
I always favor her personality over her sisters anyways. But real talk am not excited about her
. Well let me be speific the voice, No! I believe I read somewhere that she has done something
that Michelle and Kelly couldn’t/can’t/won’t lest not forget that she BEYONCE SISTER
WHO MANAGES HER THEIR FATHER. C’mon theres no way they can get an even chance.
But do you Solange SHYT! Am not mad at you for gettin that $ or following your dreams you
hear me.
On tht note I am. excited for JANELLE MONAE I believe that rite there is truly fresh air,
oh yea call me a hater if you want. lol haha.

Uhhhhhhh I really didn’t like the Video. I mean I tried to but it just didn’t grab my attention. I feel like her music doesn’t define her artistic side at all. It doesn’t fit her nor does is connect.. This is only my opinion.

My only critique: She puts so much effort into being creatively distcinct from her sister, HOWEVER, the hair and choreography reeks of BEYONCE…I think if she just goes with a differnt hairstyle (no mopre long curly weave..does nothing for her hard jaw line), choreography, lose the eyelashes then the distinction will inally be complete.

I am lovin Ms. Solange right now.
The cd is really gon pop and I love it. The first two songs are FIRE.
I love that she is gettin her shine. Im lovin her throwback pop style.
The Knowles should be very proud of their daughters they both are absoloutely amazing.
I love that Beyonce is a R&B artist
and that Solange is a POP artist
They both are going in different directions and will take over the music world together.
The style is flawless…..

OMG thank you @ Courtney_Luv (#120). I thought I was the ONLY one who saw this. The Knowles are simply following the Simpson recipe. Beyonce is mainstream and since SOlange can’t hang on that level, they’re marketing her as the anti-Beyonce. GTFOH! Solange is about as much eclectic as Ashlee Simpson is punk rock. It’s call a marketing strategy people. Wake up! Home girl is not an artist. Plus, I see that she’s going out of her way to make it known that she took part in this video’s production since some people, myself included, criticized her for not doing so in the first video. This chic is too force and it reads all across her face in her videos. Her facial expressions are so vacant and she seems to lack personality. With that said I’ll leave on a positive note. I feel bad for calling her out. She looked nice in the Campbell Soup scene.

Sorry Solange, don’t believe what people are saying. So you have a couple of hundred fans and you did a better job than your last album but you are going to get clobbered in this industry. When you get through trying to hard and color painting all these videos (that have nothing to do with the songs), you will be crying yourself to sleep at night. Kelly can sing and look what happened to her. I must say though, it was GREAT that you got those short teeth fixed
Real Talk!.

This album is really amazing. Take it from someone who was not at all a Solange fan. This album not only shifted my views of her but immensely solidified them. She wrote the whole album and the songs are discriptive, personal, and extremely artistic. I really wish the Grammys would have recognized it. Too bad. It’s a special project. I’m diggin’ it Solange.
