ANYWAYS, because I'm not going to argue over how the GP feels about writing credits no one discusses off the internet.

I'm ready for new music. I kind of don't want Bey to be a part of this Tidal thing.

[KORDEI]

Girl, nobody in real life cares about writing credit hoopla just like they don't care [or know] what song is #1 on the charts or how many records an artist has sold. YouTube comments are just a small percentage of the GP and I don't even consider them that bc clearly, they follow the music/celebrity scene.

Anyway, yeah. I'm ready for the new era to begin. Summer would be ideal.

[Lose My Breath]

What will ya'll do if there is a new Bey/Jay album next Monday? I would be kinda upset if it were exclusive only to Tidal, tbh.

We know they were/are working on a album, according to Detail (Drunk In Love/7/11 Producer) that is supposed to be out this year.

[Swim]

I'd be kinda shocked if she released something as early as this summer. Also, what happened to that rumor floating around about a joint album with Jay? I find that easier to believe.

only one mentions writing and it was this:



and these were the replies to that comment

Goodness gracious we ****ing get it! Sia wrote the song blah blah blah but what about beyonce!? SHE SANG THE DAMN SONG WHY NOT GIVE HER CREDIT!

people be arguing about who sings the song and ****
meanwhile me be sitting here wondering did the girl really eat cotton

You're missing these, which comment on the amount of comments discussing who wrote/sang the song. That says a lot more.

[Lose My Breath]

A few youtube people hardly signifies the GP

Most people probably don't even think about song writing

Again, why are you generalising?

And there are a LOT of mainstream Facebook memes about Beyonce's reliance on co-producers and lack of involvement versus Beck's independence.

[qurl]

why are you in here? and furthermore you'd have to go searching for these (LOTS of) memes involving Bey's writing credits, I can assure you myself nor any non-ATRL music obsessed person I associate with sees them or would care

some of yall take the Internet so seriously as if youtube comments and memes are the end all be all of public opinion.. believe it or not, plenty of people are not THAT involved with Internet culture

I grantee that if I went walking down the street no one would know that Whitney didn't write her #1's or that Beyonce wrote Single Ladies

[Kisuke]

A joint album on Monday with a performance on ihear. and then 2 singles with 2 high budget videos.
And then 6 comes out at the end of the year

I don't give a damn. You seen to be oblivious to MY opinion that NO ONE OFF THE INTERNET TALKS ABOUT WRITING CREDITS. So why you keep bring up FB memes (internet), YT comments (internet), or any other internet source seems puzzling to me.

And yet, here you are, continually bringing it up. Agree to disagree and move on ffs. Like I stated, I'm not arguing over this writing BS.

I would respect Beyonce's writing artistry more if she respected writers enough to not always look for a word to change in order to get writing credits herself. It's great to want to make the song your own, but sometimes it's ridiculous to just want to change a word for the sake of writing credits. That's why she gets the backlash that overshadows tracks which she actually penned like Survivor, Drunk In Love, 7/11 (Obviously) and stuff.

That's the thing though. How is she disrespecting the writers by making sure she get a credit? Beyoncé is just being a businesswoman. The writers are still getting their credit and exposure. It's not like she's saying they didn't write the song. You know, there are artists who actually use GHOSTWRITERS that aren't never credited and paid under the table. Beyoncé doesn't do that. She's there in the studio with the writers. Like Makeba said, working with Beyoncé is like having "girl talk". She gets a credit because the writers/producers feel like she contributed enough and inspired the song enough to deserve one, not because she "stole" it like some suggest.

[SneakerNerd]

I only see Beyonce's writing credits discussed here. For the most part, people don't really car who writes what. The end.

[.aR]

I was arguing against the stance that NO ONE talks about Beyonce and her writing credits/involvement IRL.

The GP is SOMEWHAT aware because it has been popularised through memes.







I'm sure you've seen these floating around.


And it's pretty high up on the search results to make a such a broad generalisation.

[qurl]

yet NONE of it seems to affect her? why is that? why else would she be so infallible to otherwise 'damning' evidence, according to what anti-Beyoncé stans argue?

because the difference between the people searching for / posting those memes isn't even a minuscule fraction of the people who don't give a **** and still love Beyoncé regardless. I legit don't know how this is so hard for yall to understand or accept. People really like Beyoncé, get over it.

[Hilly]

I hope Bey really is in Big Short, the cast is amazing

[Ressti]

I'm bored of this "writing credit" discussion.

[T-Swizz]

Beyoncé's marketing executive Blue Ivy has been doing a terrible job as of late

[Walley]

So is Bey gonna play Meredith Whitney? That's really the only female in the book The Big Short.

Her being in that movie seems so out-of-the-blue and weird that it almost makes sense.
