MUSIC NEWS: BEYONCE NAMED BILLBOARD’S ‘WOMAN OF THE YEAR’

Wednesday, August 26, 2009

Billboard announced Wednesday that multi award-winning artist and emerging icon Beyoncé will accept its coveted Woman Of The Year Award at the 2009 Billboard Women In Music Event, taking place on October 2nd in New York City.

The award is given to a trailblazing female recording artist that has inspired the music business with her success, leadership and new ideas. The honor also acknowledges the achievements of the artist over the past 12 months.

“Beyoncé is multi-platinum artist and a multi-talented woman who clearly embodies the qualities of excellence and achievement that the Billboard Woman Of The Year Award was created to honor. She has not only influenced pop culture with her hit songs and signature dance moves, but has inspired women everywhere with her unique style, business savvy and dedication to charitable causes,” said Bill Werde, Billboard’s Editorial Director.

“It is an honor to be named Woman of The Year by Billboard,” said Beyoncé. “I am humbled by this award.”

Good for her, but it’s Billboard for crying out loud. The real awards in music that matter are Grammys, ASCAP, etc., so I’m sure that’s why she gave the response she gave. I don’t blame her. Didn’t Ciara get a similar award last year?

“soundin like some damn false prophets from the gates of hell themselves.”

Are’nt you doing the same thing you just accused the “false prophets” of doing: Judging.

Are you ignorant? I think yes.

@ 151

And they’re not trying to be prophets, they’re just calling everyone to examine their environment.

Nothing wrong with examining your life and hearing out alternative points of view. You should try it some time

#156 I said the same thing about her music choice’s a long time ago. Why don’t she let R. Kelly hook her up, but really now we know why. I wish she would just sing without all the hoopla, because she can naturally sing.

THE REST OF IT

Beyoncé is a multi-platinum artist and a multi-talented woman who clearly embodies the qualities of excellence and achievement that the Billboard Woman Of The Year Award was created to honor,” said Bill Werde, Billboard’s Editorial Director, about Beyoncé, who is the only performer in the 51-year history of the Billboard Hot 100 to top the chart for 10 weeks or more with a group and as a solo artist. “She has not only influenced pop culture with her hit songs and signature dance moves, but has inspired women everywhere with her unique style, business savvy and dedication to charitable causes.”

Who decided this, Billboard Magazine. let’s see how many black people buy this magazine. Another attempt of this industry that is controlled by white people to identify a black face that white folks find safe. Beyonce does not represent the African American Community, she will never be an icon, she is not a role model for young woman of color, she is as dumb as a sack of hair, and she is a singer who can hold a tune, her backup dancers out dance her and she can not act at all, she has or should I say her handlers have disrespected some of the real trailblazers and icons is the industry, such as A. Franklin, Etta James, not to mention the entire Jackson Family. She does not sell out her concerts and there are questions about how many cds she has really sold. She takes credit for writing music she did not and is constantly called out for this, Saying you are humbled by this award is something that is always said and I am sure she was given those words to say because she has proven she can not think on her feet. She is a copy cat, there is nothing original about her, she looks fake all of the time. She will never go away, because the second that she does go away , she will be quickly and easily forgotten.

That’s a shame that CiCi didnt get her due as she should have for winning that award.

SHE DOESN’T WORK HARD. HER FATHER DOES! GIVE THE AWARD TO PAPA KNOWLES! THE HARDEST WORKING PIMP IN THE BUSINESS!

AND FYI JUST BECAUSE BEYAWNCE IS YOUR FAVORITE DOESN’T MEAN SHE WORKS HARDER THAN ANYONE ELSE. THE OTHER FEMALE ARTISTS ARE WORKING JUST AS HARD. THEY JUST DON’T GET THE RECOGNITION SHE GETS. SHE HAS SATURATED THE MARKET..BEYONCE OVERLOAD! WE SEE HER EVERYWHERE SO IT LOOKS LIKE SHE IS WORKING HARDER THAN THE OTHERS. ALL THE OTHER FEMALES IN THE INDUSTRY TOUR, PERFORM, SING, DO CHOREOGRAPHY, GIVE INTERVIEWS, ENDORSE PRODUCTS, ETC JUST LIKE BEYAWNCE. SHE IS NO DIFFERENT!

She needs a new speech writer. She says the same stupid shyt all the time. Time to speak for yourself Beyonce. You are a grown woman. Can we possibly get you to form an original thought? It would be a welcomed change.

“And, at a time when brothers were flocking to white women, she reminded us that
—–the sisters stuff is “Bootylicious”. If you don’t hear the message, I don’t know
—–what to tell you.’

***************************************************
What message? Black women have fat asses? Please. The only people getting any messages from Beyonce’s music are young,impressionable females and gays. Beyonce has no substance. She just has no depth.

“That’s how white man works he comes stir some troubles to distract u while he stealing your natural resources while still making the black man slave away to give him those diamonds for shit money. Black ppl wake up pls, i ain’t just talkin’ bout supporting those artists.’
*********************************************
The white man has nothing to do with Beyonce and countless other entertainers dumbing down to our youth with all that p*ssy popping and booty shaking. Where is the art? They are entertainers-not artists. There is a big difference.

GTFOH! I can’t stand this chick! On some real ish! She hasn’t been hot since “Dangerously in Love” her last 2 albums has been very stupid and immature. I don’t see why everybody is going crazy over this chick. Don’t get me wrong the girl can sing but the music she’s putting out is straight up garbage, and everybody is riding her bra strap. To each its own…….Its not that serious for me. All she is, is just a Fagg magnet, they all lover her because she’s dramatic in her videos and reminds you of a legendary drag queen that all the kids are raving about! Girl bye put out some mature music like your girlfriend Kelly and Letoya did, not songs like, “Get me bodied”, “Ego”, “Sweet Dreams”, “Diva”…ect. Your an adult now! Get off that Destiny Child “Bills, Bills, Bills” type music and make some grown up music.

bey stans are stupid trying to knock this award meaning cause cece won it first. She was 23 at the time. She worked hard for that award. She hasn’t had that bad of a year. love sex magic was a global success check the facts.

Question: Who said keri hilson was micheal jackson. you keri fans got a ways to go, she had 1 number 3 single on the hot 100 that doesn’t make her micheal. She is just making a way for herself in r&b.

I don’t speak ebonics,so bootylicious has no meaning to me. All I see is her popping her cellulite ass all over the place and weave blowing in every fukking direction.

Anyhoo,that attitude she has that females are jealous of her is the reason she has no friends. She isn’t the first woman to think this way. They are what you call PARANOID. They are the insecure ones.

It’s so funny when people bring up that wacka** excuse “Why do blacks always have to put each other down.” Are you kidding me? Just because Beyonce is black… WHO SAID SHE WISHED SHE WAS LATINA, doesn’t mean that I have to support her! I have to admit, Beyonce and her fam have worked hard for what they have and Beyonce has accomplished many things, but it’s for all the wrong reasons. Beyonce and her dad put her B’day album on iTunes the same day LeToya Luckett put her album on there to clash sales. Beyonce was the one who was supposed to release her B’Day album a year later, but when she found out Janet Jackson was releasing an album, she bumped it up a year a month after Janet released hers to create some competiion! Beyonce has been sued for Baby Boy and one of her songs on that B’Day Delux album, I can’t remember the name, she lied about co writing on the DC albums… she prposely outshined herself from the group and had a nerve to get back with DC and was the cause for the breakup… this woman is very deceiving, greedy, and manipulative. Plus, she’s extremely manufactured and raunchy. She gets away with shaking her a** in videos like video hos because she wears designer clothes and is seen as “classy”… I can’t stand everything about this woman.

real talk

Thursday, August 27, 2009 /

Thats what I am talking about. People always saying support Bey, support Bey, but her and her daddy don’t support no female just like she trying to constantly knock Latoya. I can beleive Matthew said Latoya can’t perform if Bey come. Think about it Bey hadn’t seen her in years. Matthew didn’t know if Latoya was going to get off into that ass. Bey’s camp sent out those text messages about Rihanna, and the twitter followers backed them all the way. So who cares about supporting a black woman who don’t support no one else.

What I dont understand, is how some of you think the ENTIRE world agrees with you when you say that I am…Sasha Fierce sucked. That album (which, even I admit is not my favorite) attracted a COMPLETELY different fan base for her, and that is considered a success for an artist that’s been in the game for over a decade. I have older white ladies at my job gushing to me about Beyonce because of that damn album. I know that’s hard to swallow for people that HATED the album, but not everyone has the same opinion. Beyonce will never give us another Dangeously In Love, we should just accept that. To be honest, I didnt become a Beyonce fan until B’day (which more people hated)…so it is what it is.
Beyonce works hard. Even if you hate her, you cant deny that she doesnt work hard. The music industry is a game. It’s a battle. Some people win (Beyonce, Rihanna, Lady Gaga) and some people lose (Ashanti, Amerie, Fefe Dobson, and Letoya). And some people simply choose not to play it at all (Erykah, Jill Scott) . But Beyonce DOES play it. And lucky for her, she plays it well.

When Beyonce sat down with her daddy to decide what she wanted to be, she said she wanted to be like Diana Ross. So that’s the mold that was created for her. Lead member of a girl group that rose to solo fame. She sings, she dances, she acts. But she also took it to the next level. There will be someone else who comes along that wants to be like Beyonce, and will do it better for her.
(and when that happens–YEARS from now, everybody will say the new person is a copy of Bey)
