It’s finally here!
The Mark Ronson-produced, long-awaited full listen of ‘Back To Black’ – the Amy Winehouse hit recently remade by pop superstar Beyonce and rapper Andre 3000 for the soundtrack for the forthcoming film ‘The Great Gatsby’ – hit the net moments ago.
Were the two a great combo? You tell us below:
Radio rip:
We love it! Do you?

Hell I’ve seen more drag queens that look more feminine than Beyonce who now looks very old and manly. She needs to give it up, I cannot at her trying to destroy Amy’s legacy with this rubbish.
**Sips Pepsi to save Franchise**
DEATH!
Is she going to perform this with her ugly ass nipple dress, I mean what the hell were they thinking. This song is horrible and a mess, it paves in comparison to the original.
http://youtu.be/TJAfLE39ZZ8
the only mess is you, dear…nutcase
Bxtch you really need to back away from the computer and take your anti-depression meds! Kiiiii
There is NO way Beyonce can have you this pressed! All these dam psychotic comments…girl you are def a fool! Kiiii
YASSS
Nothing could be better than the original, and I don’t that was Beyonce’s intention. This cover, like all her other ones, SLAYSSSS.
*Presses repeat*
If that was the complete song…i…didnt like it…at all. But if it was just the first verse then i do. I was waitn for the climax. And it didnt help that the dj kept playn that stupud east village audio
Beyoncé just makes me want to f****** puke!
She’s trying too damn hard to reach iconic or legendary status. You either have it or don’t. Quit trying Beyoncé. No matter how many awards you buy, writing credits you steal, artists you steal from, all the same tired ass choreography you do, or your desperate attempts at being a groupie with Obama, you are far from any type of role model or legendary/iconic status.
EXACTLY!
She already has though….She’s got people like you still talking about her and she’s been in the game for sixteen years…. Enough said my friend….She already is an icon….. And is on her way to legendary status…. Theres a reason why her tour is sold out with nooooooooooooo single…. And your fav’s isn’t with more number ones… people respect Beyonce as an artist and thats the differnece between her and everyone else… The proof is on the ticket sales!..Check yourself!
You can play the money card all you want… But we all know beyonce is a better role model….singer…. Artist and performer than Rihanna…..Hands Down
wth are you talking about
LOL..Beyonce has already reached legendary status…once you’ve hit 15 years at the top the game, it’s a wrap
an so is jlo baby
Jlo is s*** haha noonE like that ugly old b**** she is nothing comparied to bey WE THE HIVES HATE THAT NASTY S***
Bwahahahahahaha H** ass B****, u mad that KING B is more Iconic than Pigtina. She has sold more and won more awards than Pigtina and The P** has been out longer lmao. Plus more artist of this generation looks up morer to her than the Hog. Worry about why Hogtina is flopping left and rite. Unstead of THE F*CKIN QUEEN SLAYINGGGGGGGGGGGGGG b****.
It’s funny that after hearing the full version is still doesn’t sound any better. They really f’d this up!
Why is “the navy” always the first to post?? You’re not going to like it anyway…what’s the point of commenting? Anyway, I like it! I think it has an awesome vibe and its gonna be awesome in the movie!
THE SAME REASON Y UR FAT F***** ASS IN ON A RIHANNA POST!! SO SIT F**!!
Do you see me commenting on any flop ass song she puts out b*tch?? Or when her splice ass is trying to come for somebody?? So seat your f*ggot ass c*nt!
hypocrite ass b**** just stfu…
Here’s the difference you dumb b*tch. EVERY Rihanna post about her canceling shows, snorting coke, stripping or coming for Ciara. Your b*tch is ASKING to be dragged. Beyonce doesn’t do that dumb sh*t. When Rihanna figures out how to perform, sing or hell put out a decent album the dragging’s MIGHT seize. F*ggot
Um are you dumb b**** ? tgj stans for beyuckce.The reason you only hear those stories is because they want to shade rih and make her look bad.tgj post more bad things of rih than good they hate her i thought your f** ass would know considering im newer to the website .have ya seat phaggot.
Yep!! They sure do stand for quality music (minus Rita) b*tch so go jump in acid c*nt!
replace the word quality with boring and your sentence will actually make sense.
Replace the word “Rihking” with crack in your screen name and that would actually make sense…
Same reason your fat ass haul your buffalo eating self down to a damn rihanna post b****!!!!
I already addressed the difference with another c*nt b*tch, now go walk your redundant a*s to the edgy of a cliff and jump.
@enough B**** U DRUG BOTH OF THOSE B******!! YAAAAAASSSSSSS WEEEEFK B**** WERK!!! @DNOUGH IS MY IDOL!!! #POW
AMY JADE IS TURNING IN HER GRAVE!! OAN MITCH WINEHOUSE DOES NOT APPROVE OF THIS T***** FUCKERY!!
Didn’t like the Andre 3000 part but beyonce part sounded great. It give it was a totally different from the original.
Hell this b**** could put her name on an Aunt Jemima pancake mix recipe if they put her manly face on the box.
I bet this b**** changed one word and put her name first on those credits, Amy’s lawyers better be on top of that, this b**** will try d*** riding the song she ruined. F*** this b**** for ruining a timeless classic just because she’s got no classics of her own.
so true… watch she gets sued just like her other covers that she tried to gain writing credits for
MITCH WINEHOUSE HAS ALREADY STATED THAT BEYTRANNY HAVE NOT GOTTEN HIS PERMISSION TO RECORD HIS DAUGHTER’S SONG!!! I SMELL A FUTURE LAWSUIT COMING
Yassss, they better clock that b****.
everything you said>>>>>>>>>>>
^^the same person -_- who invated this b****
Beyonce’s vocals though….
I’d be pressed too if I had stan for a lesser b**** like, and not limited too:
Rihanna
Katy Perry
Christina Aguilera
Britney Spears
Ciara
Kesha
Ashanti
Taylor Swift
BUT RIH AND TAYLOR IS OUTSELLING YOUR T***** FAVE THO!!! OAN WHEN WILL BEYFAT GO PLATINUM LIKE RIH WITHOUT ANY PROMO! ? * PLAYS PIU AND LOVEEEEE SONG!!! (BOTH SINGLES HAVE SOLD MORE THAN ANY SINGLE FROM UN4UNATE)
It’s really beyond stupid comparing them both. Rihanna is the most influential pop icon in Europe by date and sells well, YET, it does because of the marketing/production strategy, it’s not a secret their albums go out every year leaving the industry no space to digest, they’re full of fillers, just the singles are as obvious it sounds single material.
Beyoncé is the greatest pop performer alive, dances and sings quite good, and even if needs production (she’s getting it and it’s quite obvious in the snippet and promos) she will go trough.
Gaga and Rihanna fans are always so cocky basing the entire argument into sells and that shows the rest of the world how stupid they are because their subversive plot is: IF SELLS IS GOOD. Guess what assholes? Best music in the world is not Platinum. Beethoven doesn’t f****** sell millions at K mart. So stop bitching about what sells or doesn’t it’s like the idiot ‘Madonna is old’ argument, Gaga will get old too and I BET she won’t be a half of what Madonna represents and achieved, Christina now sells nothing and she once reigned, so shut the f*** up about Rihanna cause you dont know if in ten years shell be the greatest flop, btw I love Rihanna’s music specially Good Girl Gone Bad’s Singles, We Found Love, Where Have You Been Birthday Cake and Diamonds.
@IVAN where have you been?!! Pure GOSPEL is what you wrote hun, thank you!!
Please Britney is outselling your fav. CHECK YOU STATS BOO. Don’t come for Ms. Britney hunny!
wtf was this??? how do you a ruin a instant classic… beyonce you bring no feeling to the lyrics or meaning of the song… the haunting vocals are not needed… she should have just used a sample and lied how your wrote it… i cant wait to hear how she was inspired
Beywalrusce should be ashamed of himself ruining good music smdh.WHEN WILL THIS B****…..
I love Beyonce…don’t like this though
A Rihanna Stan calling Beyonce boring? So in order to be “interesting” she should be Rude to her fans,do drugs,move stiffly,get her record label to buy her products and use payola for her #1’s,act completely childish(Like her stans),have no talent, be a human s**** deposit,tour to less than half empty venues and cancel because her tour ticket sales Have always been low,become the very opposite of D.A.R.E and everything you learn in health class,be a all and out cry for help? Well maybe she would be more interesting
Yes!!!!!! The Haters are First again!!!!
B did her thing
So B when is the single coming ?!
And when you gonna release that CD?
Exactly. They stay posted on here. Takin those online GED courses I guess.
i now ey a liers nabvi r liers
f****** faaaaaaatraaaaaaaaaaaaahhhhhhhh!!!!!!!!!!!!
Watch as this t***** gets out of her hubby’s house filled with unsold Pepsi cans and 4 CD’s, and wobble and jiggle her fat ass to the nearest TV station and publicly LIE about how she was inspired by Amy Winehouse to write this song.
Total b****, Amy’s team better make sure they check this w**** and everything should be on par, she might try to pull a fast one with those credits. Plus she’s ruined a timeless classic.
B**** stop my rib cage is hurting bahahahaahahaa
I would love to see what you look like….id bet you $100 you’re ugly as hell; but I’m sure you don’t have it to bet…
You check for her more than you do your fave! Stop creating these multiple names to talk trash and get some help! Anyone who sits and comment the way that you and “said” others do on someone you supposedly hate,has all the time in the world to see a therapist
SEETHE YOU UGLY HATING ASS B**** SEETHE!!!
Yes LMFAOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO Keep these hood hives pressed boo! Pressed ass h*** with their t***** fav!!!
Wack ass navy!!! First to comment this is proof these first couple of navy commentators are the same person!!!
Lol… her voice sounds nice but it doesn’t fit this song & Andre 2000 totally ruined the song imo… Yea im sorry but this was a total fail
*PLAYS UNAPOLOGETIC CD THAT HAS NOW OUTSOLD 4 FLOP*!!
Quality over quantity b*tch
I’m a music reviewer since 6 years ago and work for Bill Lamb, Miel Magazine, top 40 and a mainstream radio station at Latam, and yes, 4 is better than Unapologetic, even when Rihanna’s album is more radio appealing and play friendly, musically it’s just a bunch of famous producers doing the basic formula, Sia is the new black horse onto single’s structuration and did really well with Diamonds, even if weak, works miraculously and so the other indie artsts collabs, yet Beyonce’s album even when not so catchy choruses is musically and visually way too superior.
Honey, you better go to iTunes and buy the repackaged and discounted version of 4gotten, it is flopping harder than a kreayshawn CD and you need to save it.
**Sips Pepsi to save franchise because Beyocne coudln’t**
@IVAN
Beyonce has never had and never will have an album as highly critically acclaimed as RATED R. Hell in fact Rated R on the metacritic metascore crushes any Beyonce album.
@Ivan thank you for contributing an intelligent and factual comment. It was getting hard commenting back to b*tches who struggled to obtain a basic diploma from Crenshaw
High. Anyway, the navy knows (the ones who have slight intellect) that Rihanna without those A list producers/writers is pure sh*t. They use “chart positions” like her “voice” is what got her there lol. Praise her PRODUCERS and ENGINEERS navy, thats why she’s on billboard..
THAT KING B REIGN WON’T LET UP!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! REIGN ON QUEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEN! #THE IMMORTAL BEYONCE
they let up Loooooooooooooooong ago
The hive telling the navy there always the first ones to comment? BHAHAAHAHAHA what they need to do is stfu because h** stans are ALWAYS first to comment on rihs post.LAWWD these tired b****** are hypocrites.
But a post about your b*tch is her snorting coke, stripping, canceling shows or trying to come for somebody. SHE”S ASKING TO GET DRAGGED B*TCH! Beyonce post aren’t on that sh*t yet you TRY and drag….
Beyflop is a liar and a thief so she is asking to get her nappy wig dragged
The hive will like anything …. this was a HORRIBLE COVER
B**** you stan for Kim Kardashian. I need not say more -_-
So does it matter who i stan for gworl??? i have ears and the s*** SUCKED.. any n everyone whos not a hive member will always pick the original over this TRASH
Girl you know what, I apologize. As a Kim Kardashian stan, you would know alot about things SUCKING since your fave is an expert at it.
*Plays Ray J’s “I Hit It First”*
Lol ur so lame dog……anyways beyonce should NEVER BE ABLE TO COVER A REAL ARTIST SONG EVER AGAIN ITS A DISGRACE TBH *FLIPS HAIR I DON’T CARE*
@Kim Kardashian Stan honey, Beyonce could put her fat filled stinky s*** in a bottle and sell it to the hive and they would call it legendary.
Are the hivs really gonna to sit there fat stank asses in their computer chairs get out their keyboard and type nothing but lies? The hivs are really going to say its better than the original????YEAH NO!
I know right, they’re going to flat out lie and call this rubbish good. I cannot, this is a mess.
Yet you LIE and praise Rihanna’s live performances *rolls eyes*
Have you bought the repackaged version of 4 on iTunes yet??
Has Rihanna cancelled in your city yet?
has beyflopce released her flop ass single yet??
beyonce is weak ! her music is terrible , keri hilson makes better r&b
beyonce is a puppet . keysha cole fantasia keri hilson monica fantasia jazmine sullivan is better
ummm..to each his own
As much as i like Andre, his part was not needed. This song would of been better if it was only sang by beyonce. Her part sounds good until she starts trying to include Sasha…Xtina would of done it justice. She evokes so much soul and would of add more depth to the song.
P.S what’s it with RIHKING AND LOVEBIRD. YOU guys are so annoying, you former beyhive members needs to stay your hive cause y’all be ACKIN up. Take the couple seat love bird and rihking. We don’t need y’all immature heifers in the NΛVI. Imposters.
Don’t put this on the Hive, they are part of your fan-base, not anyone else. Making excuses is a sign of weakness,don’t try it.
I actually like the cover, it sounds unique. She wasn’t trying to emulate Amy, she made it her own. That is what you do when you cover a song, you capture the song in your own essence without losing the feel of the song. Some of ya’ll are so biased you just assumed it was bad because you don’t like Beyonce. Others are really reaching, before you guys heard that Beyonce was doing a cover to this song I bet you ,you couldn’t even name one Amy WineHouse song,let alone know who she is. But now since Beyonce is covering it you put her on the highest pedestal calling her a legend just to find something to hate on Beyonce about. Tbh, If Amys own dad says he has no problem with it,and even tweeted that he would be honored if Beyonce covered his daughters song,you guys shouldn’t have a problem with it either. If you really don’t like the cover that much,dislike it and move on. Don’t keep posting mulitple comments with multiple different usernames trying to express why you think Beyonce is this and hat. No one cares about your biased and deluded opinion. She is doing this for The Great Gaspy and her fans,if you aren’t a fan,move on and just don’t click on the post, especially if all you’re going to do is spread negativity. Some of you fan-bases are really contradicting yourselves, how can you bash another artists talent when yours has absolutely none? Oh the iron of it all,I would laugh if it wasn’t so sad. Just Shut-Up and enjoy the music.
FLOP B**** GOT NO SOUL . SO BAAAAAAD!!!
XTINA & AMY >>>>>>>>>>>>>>?????????????
OMG I’ve just gotten my life. Just heard the snippets of this Fantasia album not expecting much and man is it fire. So buying the Mastered for iTunes version right now.
Who cares?
Beyonce will NEVER inspire vocally
She is just a copy machine ..
NO IDENTITY!! NO SIGNATURE SOUND
Whitney
Mariah
Celine
Toni
Xtina
.FULL.STOP.
Idk why the Navi is so pressed tho..
Technically, you b****** are part of the Hive. Just as the Monsters are technically Madonna stans, Barbz are technically Lil Kim fan’s, C-Squad are technically Janet stans etc. With out Beyonce there would be no Rihanna, that’s why your fav idolizes her- Rihanna’s words not mine.
You b****** need to listen to your leader ,NΛVI, when he says “Take the couple seat”
Ewww this b**** sounds like a damn husky dirty t*****!
Damn why is she always messing stuff up???? Like damn t***** you can’t sing everything with that manly voice of yours!!! Don’t mess a classic hit up, because you can’t make one yourself!!! Pressed big bird sounding h**!!
Beyawnce thick ass neck look like somebody stuffed a big ass 3 liter PEPSI bottle in it!!! EWWWW just nasty!
LMAO, HateBird and Rihanna King of Flop Albums can keep barking.
#neaux1currr
Beyonce’s 65M+ albums >>> Rihanna’s 29M
Beyonce’s 6 smash hit albums >>> Rihanna’s 2 hit albums
Beyonce’s $400M networth >>> Rihanna’s $100M
So all your comments don’t make any sense, when you’re trying to shade on someone SUPERIOR to your fav.
65 plus million albums???? b**** plz!!! 27 million h**, stop inflating h**, and come with facts!!!!!
Well here are the facts DIL:11 Mill WW B-Day: 7.5 Mill WW IA..SF: 8 Mill WW and Year Of 4:3 Mill WW add all of them up and you get 30mill WW. Then you add singles,records,and DVDS to get the whole combined sales.
Destiny’s Child sales add up, so . . . . 😆
i see some b****** up in here writing novels to save face..songs a hot ass mess.
p.s click my name. LMAO
Is it u? So beautiful, like ur drugged fave in 10 years!
bwahahaha
I’m a Beyonce fan, but this s*** right here? No! Sorry, Bey, this was horrible.
Kind of funny isn’t it, Samantha hurdles insults at Rihanna and the Hive (namely Rich and Black, H20, Enough Onika, My Forehead, Digger Bey, Jackieyonce) cheer and egg him on. If a person hurdles an insult at their precious Beyonce, “OMG you’re such a hater, you have no life blah blah blah”.
Based on what I’ve seen on this site alone, the navy has got some moderate commentators like “Honey Child Please, Monstarebel, NAVI and a few others”, the hive have got NO MODERATE commentators, they enjoy and take joy in Samanatha’s constant peddling of insults and falsities towards Rihanna and judging from their behavior, never will cease to do so.
They’ll never seek middle ground and so what would be the point of some of the NAVY in doing so, there isn’t is there. Do we need to remind them who started this? All one has to do is go back to the Good Girl Gone Bad era and see the venom that was directed towards Rihanna by the hive. No point negotiating with terrorists eh, you keep pushing, we’ll push back, it’s only Physics.
HATEBird suffering from insulting comments??
I just can NAWT!!
**looks at your AVI**
I said Rihanna was suffering from insulting comments, beginning from the Good Girl Gone Bad era, inflicted by the Hive. You can take this whole statement if you want and Google translate it into Arabic, maybe then you’ll understand, but then again, you’re trying to side track from the real issue, which is the hive’s hateful behavior which has resulted in a retaliation.
Go back to the Ashanti post and see for yourself.
^^^ I didn’t even know about Rihanna’s whole existance until 2010 with “Hard”, so trust me I’m not one of them Hives who’d insult Rihanna.
But b****, Sam never tells a lie when he talks about Rihanna. Just because most of the s*** he says about her is negative, doesn’t make it false. When Rihanna does good, Sam and the Hive congratulate her. If you don’t believe me, you’re more than welcome to look at older articles. The problem, though, is the b**** rarely does good. Her performances are half ass, she cancels shows to party, she encourages drug use, and is an all around bad role model for her fans.
Until Rihanna starts getting her s*** together and becomes serious about her craft, don’t expect the Hive take her serious. Also, this little “stan war” will end very fast once the Navy stops comparing Rihanna to her idol.
Honeychildplease is a MODERATE commentator? B**** please. I see more Hives congratulate Rihanna on her success than Navis EVER giving Beyonce any credit ijs.
Anyway, she the song to a whole another level! 😀
But I wanted more Bey, less Andre.
Dope cover, very different from the original. Like the rythm the flow and ascending vocals. This is not her best cover though.
Here is a list of my favourite Beyonce cover versions
1. Billy Joel-Honesty cover. This was an amazing job, one can be critical because I think Billy Joel is a god but it was well-sung and there were no unnecessary vocal gymnastics, she just sang it and she sang it so well it made the cut to be on her 3rd album (I think, not sure).
2. Micheal Jackson “I can’t help it” cover from I am Tour in Philladelphia I think. You can tell through this fan made video that she was genuinely influenced by Michael Jackson its not a publicity points getting thing. If you are a Michael Jackson fan, go to youtube and watch this video you’ll appreciate it, especially if you loved “Off the Wall”. In fact, its got 3 000 000 views even though its fan made and awful quality.
****3.The beautiful ones by prince at the Wynn hotel in Las Vagas mashed with “that’s why you’re beautiful” (this is my favourite)****. I don’t have any words to describe this performance apart from saying its better than it sounds. Its a pity I didn’t make it onto the final DVD edition largely due to Prince’s PARANOA with ownership. Commerce interfeared with music. PLEASE I beg everyone who loves music to take some time and watch this very low quality fan-made video and just enjoy because its just musical genius.
4. All of the Etta James covers were sick, especially “trust in me”. “At last”, “I’d rather go blind”, “all I could do was cry” were vocal molasses, delicious to the ear and satisfying in her tone, I dare say her rendition of “trust in me” was better than Etta’s! Amazingly versetile voice.
5. Anita Bakers “sweet love”. I’m an avid Anita Baker fan and I have to say this girl really did do this cover well especially the “soo surreal” key changes! But sorry beyonce (smiley face) Anita is the greatest singer for me, and I don’t care what anyone says or does Anita Baker is the songstress to my life, bar Sade of cause.
6.I’m torn between her duets with Stevie Wonder and Luther Vandross (both of which won grammys), but the “Closer I get to you” cover is pretty amazing considering the fact that I have never honestly liked the song much.
7.Her vocally delicious live cover of Jill Scott’s “He loves me” on The Beyonce Experience DVD.****one of my favourites again
8.Learn to be lonely @ the Oscars from Sir Lloyd Webber’s “Phantom of the Opera” (who by the way was on piano that night). Great job at a song that isn’t particularly easy to sing.
9. Barbra Streisand’s “the way we were” at the Kennedy Honours. (Please make sure you listen to this).
10. The jazzy scat galore deja vu live version that was filled with Ella Fitzgerald cuts including (if it aint got that swing).
I’m not a pop fan, but its hard for me to see how rihanna compares to beyonce in talent. When it comes to vocal and live performance (which is what’s important), rihanna is the conversation Beyonce is the entire press conference.
wow she does not have none of her own classics. I did not konw she that she done so many covers. sad beyonce be named a legends baded on her tap shoes. not her music. who gonna be scream craxzy in love in 10 years. maybe blue ivy.
I hope you’re not stupid enough to actually believe that Beyonce’s entire career is based on those ten songs.
Well I’m not a Beyonce enthusiast myself but it is only a deluded person who would deny the impact of her songs crazy in love, single ladies, halo, irreplaceable, listen, baby boy, naughty girl, dangerously in love.
If you’re criteria for determining an artist’s level of creativity is based on the amount of cover versions they do, then I’m afraid that list included far more artists than Beyonce alone.
lol thu
keri hilson has a new song called crazy in love help me lord its better than beyonce
beyonce is goin to hell she worships satan
And where are you going?
Andre made a clear mistake of singing this song in the completely wrong key…If you’re going to take it down in pitch, make sure you stay on pitch and it fits with the key…Beyonce sounds amazing as usual…She should have done this by herself…
The Navy is so embarrassing 🙂
Beyonce voice slays, Andre part was not needed tbh.
Beyonce got dragged once again kiiii
And yes the song is just BAD
Beyonce….I love you! But I am not supporting you in this one! Stop playing!
She brings no heart soul or life to this song…. Smh
Everybody knows I´m no Beyonce fan, but it sounds good. Come on people don´t be so hard. The soundtrack is based on covers or new songs, but not on old songs, which would be the case if they had included Amy´s outstanding original version.
ps: the nerve of some Rihanna fans to try to bash every other artist is just blasphemy. As if she were better than anybody at anything…
And by the way I´m basing my opinion on how it fits the movie. It sounds great when you hear it in the trailer. They did this for the movie and that´s it. Of course if this were for Beyonce´s album it would be all kinds of weak, no vocals, very short, etc. But it sounds good for what it is
Stop your no beyonce fan? b**** shut up we all know your an undercover stan.#NOTFOOLINME
REPUGNANT. AMYS FATHER BASHING IT IS ENOUGH TO PROVE THAT.
Amys father liked it. Check his OFFICIAL twitter hon.
If @johnvidal can admit this is good then I know these Navy b****** are just hating
Oh and anyone who tries to use Mitch Winehouse, he quote said ‘i like Beyonces cover she can do another one if she wants to’ on his OFFICIAL twitter. That other s*** was fake just like so many other Beyonce rumours.
Like really tho… WHO TF ARE THE NAVY TO TALK ABOUT VOCALS BEING A MESS??? Get ya f****** life!
She’s a few flops away from calling an emergency meeting with Destiny’s Child in order to revive her career, because it’s obviously on life support! Let’s be honest, Bey’s no longer the it girl!
Bey doesnt need it girl status to be supreme
This is nice. Her voice sounds really good on it. People only give a f*** and are going off because its BEYONCE covering it. You wouldnt give two shits about someone covering it otherwise. So transparent. And the cover is not bad.
I can’t wait until her new album, whenever it comes out, sells less that one of the singles released from Rihanna’s Unapologetic. I know it won’t sell more than the album itself, but I’d rather watch it get destroyed by Pour It Up alone!
I think I still prefer the original but I like this take on Amy’s version. I still not sure about Andre but Beyonce told a good story with her vocals and it is a modern and avant-garde take on ‘Black’. I am quite excited about The Great Gatsby soundtrack.
And I lived for that run at 2:14! lol
Amy would be proud (especially since she loved Beyonce and vice versa).
This is underwhelming but rihanna fans have no room to talk about ‘classics’
List of best selling artists in France (I’ll put the most famous females/groups). The first column shows total records sales, the second one shows singles sales and the last one album ones. Did your fav made the list? Congratulations to all of them.

What are the numbers in front about? And what source did you get this from? I find it weird how there is no ADELE and no BEYONCE yet there is Brandy (no shade) but thats wrong when she cant even do arenas over there.
And Beyonce just set a record in france for selling an arena out so fast #something is twisted
Gurl you must be blind because Adele is on the list.
239 ADELE 2 849 042 (total record sales) 926 771 (single sales) 1 922 271 (album sales)
Her sales are amazing. She will probably overtake some legends with her next album. xD
These numbers show the total record sales for artists starting from 1955 till 2012. Beyonce is there with Destiny’s Child as well. She is probably close to 1 million records in France (her solo record sales). I wanted to post a link of the source but my comment is put automatically on moderation. You can find it if you type infodisc.fr and click on Bilan par Artiste.
Did I say something against Beyonce anyway? I was at her concert in Belgrade, I know she is a huge tour act so no need to fume without a reason. This shows sales, not tour earning. Brandy was probably huge in the past there so that she could sell many records.No need to play other artists just because you are not satisfied with someone numbers 😛
Oh lol I see my queen now. But i say that because your ability to tour is based on general sales so it doesnt make sense
We already know CELINE DION is the Queen of France and Canada. What´s the point? I thought this was about a new song. Didn´t see anybody discussing sales in France here… 🙂
Lmao this lists seem so FAKE and I am Ri stan but that looks so randomly selected and re-typed. As much as I loathe Beyonce I know she would definatley be on that list if certain others can make it on there Im part French she is quite big over there. Looks like someone who doesnt like her left her put haha.
Gurl, I am not making up this list/these numbers. You can find them on infodisc.fr. I believe they are official.
Anyway, Beyonce did make list with DC and she will probably enter the list with her next album. I do believe her record sales in France are around 1 million.
@JOHN
Why not? France is among the biggest music markets in the world and it is always interesting to know about artists record sales. You did the same with RIAA list which shows domestic sales of some artists but it is nice to see if they are huge on international scale and if their music is global. Celine is surely one of the most global artists of all time. Congratulations to her, you must be proud. 😉
They dont look that official sorry I just typed it in, clicked and couldnt go any further.
Nice list but it’s not official at all!!!!
I think Celine Dion sold more. She sells 10 millions in france with the album “d’eux” with sells of all others (i don’t know exactly how many albums she did but i know they are many in french and in english) and it’s a huge succes every time in france.
Brandy????Love her but she just knows here with the boy is mine.
Rihanna nearly so far as the spice girl, who was an incredible phenomenon in France for years, I do not believe it for a second.
And shakira? It’s huge but it’s possible, i have a doubt.
Well, it’s no an official french website , without sources so….
@likica
It´s interesting to know lists like this one (if they are accurate of course). What I´m saying is that it didn´t make sense in this post 🙂
Sounds different than what I expected. Heck, I dunno what I expected cuz one can never be too sure when Andre 3000 is in the mix. The woman that kept announcing the radio and dj totally made me wanna stomp on my laptop, but I digress. I need to hear it in HQ…
WHY IS EVERYONE HATING ON BEYONCE!!!! IF ANYTHING ANDRE’S VERSE IS THE MESS!!!!!!!! ITS NOT JUST HER COVERING THE SONG YOU BUNCH OF F****** IGNORANT ARSEHOLES.
i’m usually a fan of beyonce’s music, but this is weak. i really hope the new single is great because so far the snippets haven’t grabbed me like her previous stuff 🙁
its for a movie not her album idk why people keep saying that
I like it
By the time it got to Beyonce the song was over. Kinda short and not long enough to be liked. It is not bad though
Cool. Beyoncé sounds nice.
Andre 3000 fu*ked the song up..!
THANK YOU! I’m like are we listening to the same song? lol
Goddamn can yall ignorant pressed asses go one f****** day without the so called “dragging”! S*** aint even funny or entertaining anymore. Dumb m************ have nothing better to do then talk about favs and flops just shut the f*** up already
So much troll on this site. Look at first comments. i don’t understand Free Wickedly. Are u frustrated or are you 12?
i don’t know if it was a good idea to remake back to black but it was a good idea for her to change the whole song. Not bad, a little bit short, beyonce sounds good but andre 3000?????
Anyway, just a song for a movie……
The song has been ruined!!!!!!!
amazing I love it bey and Andre 300 did it and you Riri so call stain go hall you all hatters don’t care for Riri you hatters are supporting her only the hate you all have for bey not do well thank god you hatters are not god worry for Riri that sell her body for hit dont have no talente lazy slick and fake
Why are these Rihanna stans doing all the talking? They stay shading themselves all the damn time its hilarious. The song isn’t even bad.
Rihking and Lovebird need a rough matt to LIE down on, even your fellow Navi members are telling you to stfu lmao! Doing the most! Yall don’t give a f*** about Amy, its because Beyonce is covering it smh!
always doing the most? you mean doing as much AS I F****** WANT B****.:)
Which is the absolute MOST troll.
Yass them c*** are always loosing that pea mind.
Ummm Beyonce sounded fine on this. Andre 3000 did WAY too much with the auto-tuned vocals throughout 80% of the song. If anyone ruined it, it was him.
now that we’ve all heard the full song can we now say that it’s f***** terrible. the song is about going back to depression(Black) and this cover made me more depressed because amy’s music legacy is getting tarnished. and i knew somewhere that beyonce was going to do a damn run it’s not needed! Poor Amy
Oh please her legacy is not getting tarnished, everyone will know back to black for her singing it stop being dramatic. I am not a Beyonce stan but you all reach for the stars with her. Its a cover for a movie, like chill Beyonce doesn’t even sound bad if anyone messed up its Andre and blame Mark Ronson for allowing it (since it is his song).
The song is good. Its only for a movie. I don’t like Andres 3000s part but Bey sounds good
If you coons heard the theme of the entire album or new anything about The great Gatsby you would understand this art form. Since Beyonce isn’t popping her twat and Andre isn’t talking about “Poppin Molly” you can’t comprehend. Smdh.
Beyonces part is nice Andre f***** up though.
“Eastvillageradio.com” was the best thing about this crappy ass song
SEETHE SOME MORE B****
ITS SO CLEAR WHEN BEYONCE IS HAVING SUCH AN IMPACT AND IS ALWAYS DOING AMAZING
THESE COMMENTS JUST PROVES HER POWER….
OVER THESE RIHTARDS IT EMBARRASSING LOL
NOPE US THE HIVES ARE JUST MAD BECAUSE OUR FLOP ASS FAVE IS A BORING TRANSSEXUAL WITH NO NEW MUSIC.
ITS FOR A MOVIE PEOPLE GEEZ she didn’t go out her way to make the song THE PRODUCERS for the soundtrack of the movie came to HER! BUT yall so stuck on being gay and hateful yall don’t do research yall just judge someone you dont even know smh if everybody wasn’t so damn hateful over people they don’t know the world would be a better place! This most likely wont even be on the album but yall of course hate her because she bothers yall so much to the point where yall comment on her every move how about YOU JUST STOP WATCHING HER!
i love love LOVEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE THIS SONG AND ITS GETTING MORE LOVE THAN HATE…
THE RIHTARDS ARE THE MOST HATERS OF THE ONLY VOICE THEY HEAR ON THIS TRACK WITH IS THE UNDISPUTED QUEEN
BEYONCEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEBUT WHO CAN BLAME THOSE RIHTARDS FOR BEING THAT PRESSED THEY HAVE LOST ALL ABILITY OF HAVING COMMON SENSE THAT IS WHY THEY ARE SO FROWN UPON
BUT ANYHOW
THIS SONG IS AMAZING AND BEYONCE VOICE… MMMMHMMMMM
SO SULTRY AND S*** YOU CAN FEEL THE EMOTIONS IN HER VOICE… AND FROM THE REACTION I SEE SO FAR ON THE INTERNET
IT IS LOVEDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDD
YASSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSS
This is so hot to me just not long enough. Beyonce voice is so so seductive and sultry on this. Yess Beyonce I love the spin you put on this. Nothing will ever sound as good as the original back to black, but this here is a good cover. It fit the movies so well. I take it these kids no nothing about The Great Gatsby.
The haters are MAD and PRESSED as normal..@lovebird is loosing that lil pea mind she has left and @Rihking/Queeen bish sit all the way down your new on this site and have NO DAMN SAY…..@lovebird you got to be kidding me with that b.s you typed earlier. I only shade rihanna when needed, with FACTS not lies. Unlike you I don’t HATE rihanna. FOR SOME REASON YOU HATE BEYONCE TO THE CORE. No matter what Beyonce do it will never be good enough for you, for whatever reason you hate her. On the other hand the Beyhive will send congrats to rihanna when needed so save the b*******. You and a few other low life troll SPEW your hate for Beyonce on a daily. It’s to a point I pay you people no mind and comment when I feel the need to.
You and ANYbody that has BEEN on her for a while knows I don’t even DRAG rihanna the way I use to cause their is no need to RIHANNA IS THE READ, SHE READ HERSELF.
JUST KNOW LOVEBIRD BEYONCE WILL ALWAYS BE BETTER THAN RIHANNA IN ANYTHING AND IT’S NOTHING YOU AND ANYBODY ELSE CAN DO ABOUT IT.
Ps. The only Navy I deal with are my baby MONSTARBEL AND FRESH NAVI The rest of you bishes CAN SUCK MY ASSHOLE LIPS AFTER A FRESH S***. MUAH HAVE A BLESSED WEEKEND TO ALL..
beyhonce is da bes t i luve her she a inperation to mi and my duagterz i love her she cud singg beder than any1ne elcs.
Couldn’t have a an album cover that Jay Z’s name is attached to without getting the masonic compass in the artwork huhh.
I think we only counted about 67 triangles hahahah
(there’s bound to be room for more).
I dislike beys voice, my personal opinion so dont attack me b****** , … so after hearing this mess I had to go play the original .. miss u Amy
Good
Jesus what a piece of s***. Somewhere out there, Amy is throwing up and ripping her ears off. What happened to the soul? Why is Andre trying to sing? He’s a rapper FFS!
Bey was cool and all that but i was put off at start just from Andre.
He’s dope but not feeling him here.
Set the tone for the track i think.
Prefer Amy’s
