Solange’s Grammy Inquiry

Solo posed a question last night on Twitter as to why her older sis has received marginal press after taking home six Grammy Awards on Sunday. Beyoncé broke Lauryn Hill’s 11-year-old record of the most won by a female.
Heads Up: NLL
the grammys don’t care about black people
hmm thats funny,cause all i read about is beyonce beyonce beyonce.Fuckin sick of it.Cant wait till she`s gonna take a break
‘Minimal press’ because fans give a damn anymore about who wins the grammy or any other music award for that matter. Its 2010.
What is this chick talking about? All I hear is how B was the big winner. WTF?
How much more press does she need? Damn she’s already on top of the world. More press should only matter to artists who are starting out and tryna get their names out there. Beyonce already has that shit on lock!!
who is solange and why should we care???
That’s because I’m better than Beyonce. They care more about me. Afterall, I kicked her ass with the best album.
@job I’m Beyonce’s sister. And that was mean what Taylor Swift said. But I am much prettier than Bey with my cancer african nigger look.
Who gives a fuck about Taylor Swift. She’s built like a 13 year old boy.
Hey they might ban your son from getting on stage if u keep ranting! lolololol
Cmon man she got the Grammys Jesus the ego supercedes the actual award and the award IS the fuckin recognition ya’ll act like some spoiled attention whores what you want them to erect a statue of Beyonce? You want the whole walk of fame dedicated to her? In any case 98′ Lauryn Hill > Beyonce’s solo career
simple because Beyonce’s performance wasn’t as good as some of the others. No duet. no single ladies. no trapeze. the night was more about what people did than what they won.
Solo babygirl, it’s because, “They don’t give a fuck a-bout us”…Beyonce coulda won every fuckin Grammy that night in her category and ALL the other category, they still woulda said, “Although Beyonce won EVERY Grammy in the gosh-darn building, the other ppl aren’t losers, they’re all winners!!!!”…Face it, this year, the Grammy’s showed their “I’m not racist, I have 3 black friends.” personality. i.e. showin us “love” jus to make it not look like they despise our music and culture.
>the grammys don’t care about black people”
Simple!
Co-Sign…deniro, Ac@pella!
It’s called marketing. You can’t focus on beyonce alone, everyone in the world isn’t a beyonce fan, but 90% of White america is a Country Music/ Taylor Swift fan so they diversified the marketing to appeal to a larger crowd (Can’t blame them). It’s not about racism or anything like that, its about the money and capitalizing at any given opportunity.
beyonce and jay z will catch their downfall at about the same time
Oh yea, The highest award of the night is “Best Album” and since Taylor Swift won that she gets the recognition for biggest winners.
*Disclaimer* I’m not sticking up for taylor i personally think she’s heavily overrated i just hate people stating stupid opinions on obvious situation and throwing out the race card.
*musically
how much press does this Beyonce character needs?,I mean really!…if the Beyonce chic don’t come out and cry about herself not getting press,shut yo ass up Solange
on a lighter note,good to see my nigga B.dot back doing “journalism” lol
Lol, @ some of y’all. She got the RECORD, so y’all can continue to say all you want. Next year people won’t remember woh Taylor Swift is, somebody else will win Album of the Year. Let’s see who breaks Bee’s record. HA
It’s sad when we continuously hate on our own.
F*CK SETTING RECORDS…I JUST WANT BEYONCE TO SIT DOWN…JUST SIT DOWN DAMN IT!!!
IT DOESN’T HAVE TO BE A SIT DOWN FOR 8 TO 10 YRS LIKE MAXWELL OR SADE, BUT PLEASE LET PEOPLE MISS YOUR TALENTS ALITTLE…DAMN!!
“Who gives a fuck about Taylor Swift. She’s built like a 13 year old boy.”
^^^ Word, that chick needs implants ASAFP!
UM….SHES RIGHT everyone. Even though B set this incredible new record the MOST press was going to TAYLOR SWIFT AGAIN! IT’S TRUE! “Most headlines are like beyonce blah blah blah, BUT TAYLOR SWIFT WAS THE BIG WINNER OF THE NIGHT WITH BLAH BLAH BLAH.”
Solange. You have a valid reason to be upset on behalf of your sister, and i feel u.

^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
BEYONCE GETS PRESS FOR EVERYTHING ELSE UNDER THE SUN…I THINK THIS ONE TIME SHE WILL BE OK. I BELIEVE IF SHE WAS THE FIRST TO BREAK THE RECORD THEN THAT WOULD BE SOMETHING DIFFERENT…L-BOOGIE DID IT FIRST, SO I GUESS PEOPE WEREN’T SWEATING LIKE THAT OTHER THAN LIL SIS AND BEYONCE STANS
@DARKAQUA
what do you mean “the first to break the record”…the record was set, women broke it and broke it. then lauryn…then years passed (like 11), now beyonce. l-boogie broke a record already set, and whoever came before her did the same. beyonce is next in line…and its been 11 years yo.
so i don’t understand the whole “first” thing you talkin. but in any case, i want her to sit down too, she needs a rest, and needs to go away and grow so she can come back with a fresh approach, reformed maybe. and you dont have to be a stan to see that homegirl deserves the accolades, yes, again. if you keep crushin shit, you deserve the recognition. everybody else gotta catch up to beyonce.
i’m a nigga and i don’t even buy her albums, lol, but the credit is given where it’s due.
and anyway, iono why niggas are surprised taylor is the talk of the entertainment nation. she’s a young white girl. obviously she’d take precendence over beyonce. 2+2 folks. the math ain’t changed

^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
1st “FEMALE” TO SET THE RECORD….AND I DON’T KNOCK BEYONCE’S HUSTLE, I JUST WANT HER TO SIT HER ASS DOWN FOR A MINUTE.
THIS IS WHY THEY WILL GIVE TAYLOR SWIFT 7 NEXT YEAR!
Wow, what an ego. It’s not enough that she’s been awarded 6 grammies. Now the press and everybody else have to bend over backwards to keep harping on it and congratulating her… ha!
No one cares because Beyonce winning 6 awards is a phucking joke. And, she didn’t win the award in major categories. Anyone that thinks Lauryn Hill should be holding more awards for Single Ladies and Halo than Whitney Houston, Lauryn Hill, Celine Dion or any other REAL diva is an idiot.
Good day, sir.
Correction: Anyone that thinks Beyonce should be holding more awards for Single Ladies and Halo than Whitney Houston, Lauryn Hill, Celine Dion or any other REAL diva is an idiot. (Hell, or even Pink or Alicia Keys.)
Let’s put Single Ladies in a vault to represent music 100 years from now.
Y’ALL ARE MISSING THE BIG PICTURE HERE! FORGET THE “SHE SHOULD SIT DOWN” THING FOR A MOMENT AND THINK!
IF SAY TAYLOR HAD WON 6 GRAMMY’S (BROKE A RECORD) AND BEE HAD JUST WON 4 (INCLUDING ALBUM OF THE YEAR), DO Y’ALL HONESTLY BELIEVE THAT THEY WOULD BE DOING THE SAMETHING TO BEE THAT THEY’RE DOING TO TAYLOR?!
WOULD BEE WINNING ALBUM OF THE YEAR BE GREATER THAN TAYLOR BREAKING A RECORD? HELL NO! Y’ALL NEED TO PUT YOUR PERSONAL DISLIKE FOR BEE ASIDE AND LOOK AT THE BIG PICTURE! IF A WHITE WOMAN HAD DONE WHAT BEE DID, WE WOULDN’T HEAR THE END OF IT. BUT JUST BECAUSE IT’S BEE WHO HAS BEEN IN THE INDUSTRY FOR OVER A DECADE (WORKING HER ASS OFF) AND Y’ALL ARE “TIRED” OF HER, ALL OF A SUDDEN WHAT SHE DID ISN’T CONSIDERED A “BIG DEAL”. GTFOH!
Y’ALL ARE WILLING TO PLAY DOWN WHAT SHE DID BECAUSE Y’ALL DONT LIKE HER. SAD
@ MEMEME
What do you call SONG OF THE YEAR YOU IDIOT?! First award of the night, DON’T HATE. I GUESS IT’S ALL GOOD AS LONG AS IT’S A WHITE WOMAN WHO HAS MORE RECORDS THAN WHITNEY AND THEM HUH?
If I give Bey her props, will she take a fuc*in’ break?
thats what happens when your husband wont get you pregnant… he dont want you fucking up his money when you eventually divorce, even if the broad is rich as fuck too.
This shit is fuckin Rediculous!!!!!!!! Every year!! whoever wins BEST ALBUM…Is coined the BIG WINNER….. Thats the biggest award thus they call the winner of the biggest award….the big winner….The fuuuck haha
blaqscorpio, who won the song of the year last year? Bet you can say. You know who won the best Album of the year? Alison Krauss and Robert Plant and that info is without an internet search. That’s the BIG AWARD, which is why it’s the LAST award.
When Lauryn HIll set the record she was every where, so there goes the racism theory.
Let’s try again.
because the grammys succeeded in having a black-free night. and most of the urban grammys beyonce won were during the pre-show.
@ UM the reason I mentioned Song of the Year is because MEMEME said that she didn’t even win an award in any of the “major” categories. And SOTY is a major category.
maybe cuz the grammy ppl aren’t stupid and know that Lauryn won ebcasue of talent and Beyonce didnt! she only won cuz of popularity! I mean come on…Single Ladies gets Songwriter of the Year? Who are the wack ass ppl that voted for that shit??
umm the world doesnt revolve around beyonce unfortunately.. and i agree with ms_starr lauryn hill was way more worthier than beyonce i mean take away her weaves crazy outfits and all that extra shyt we wouldn’t recognize her and besides not that many people as solange may like to think care about beyonce sorry
also if i were beyonce i would tell the people around me to stop giving out their comments because its not a good look on her behalf and she is not a big winner in my opinion does any one ever remember the show broken dreams where they allowed ex members of destiny child to talk about their treatment while in the group..theres no denying she is a well accomplished artist but damn she is no mariah carey and many other artist who are so much better than her
The real reason for the racist hatred of Beyonce is that her big beautiful black ass put all flat ass white women out of business .
Face it Beyonce rules.
