Opposition to Beyonce‘s performance at the Country Music Awards has ignited fresh interest in her new LP ‘Lemonade’ this week.
Good news for the Southern belle below…
The entertainer took to the awards ceremony to perform her number ‘Daddy Lessons‘ alongside the Dixie Chicks who, by way of their world view, often face heat from the Country community.
Following their performance the show’s creatives shocked their respective fan bases by removing it from their digital platforms.
Fortunately, their worrying move did little to stop the number from riding its way into iTunes Top 20 hours ago.
‘Lessons’ was penned by Wynter Gordon, Kevin Cossoms, Beyonce herself and produced by Alex Delicata.
Its latest version, on which the Chicks appear, features additional production provided by the band who have sold 27.5 million records in the U.S. alone.
#NowPlaying: Mickey Guyton – ‘Better Than You Left Me.’

WELL……..
well, from selling 10 copies to 300 copies… and now is free-falling. meanwhile the other country songs reached the top 5
its actually free. people are really retarded these days
Well I know I fell in love with the song thanks to this performance and the release of the recording on Soundcloud. Been listening to it pretty much non-stop. I haven’t heard almost any of the Lemonade album except for Sorry and Hold Up…but Daddy Lessons is def a new fave!
Yonce ain’t worried or bothered about nothing! The curves on her that she worked to hell in that dress alone got them shook and seething.
I GUESS WHEN SHE SAID SHE NOT PLAYIN WIT U H*** SHE CAME TO SLAYY… SHE REALLY WASNT PLAYIN THIS ERA! THIS ERA IS REALLY ICONIC IT WILL GO DOWN AS ONE OF THE MOST CONTROVERSIAL ALBUMS OF ALL TIMES!
Does this mean we’ll get a Platinum Edition of Lemonade with more songs and extra videos?
The woman who engineered the album says this was a one and done, there was no planed Deluxe or extended versions. This is the same woman who gave every detail about Lemonade in August 2015 or around the same time as MIA and it was all true down to album cover and tracklist yet no one believed her, I’ll say she pretty legit. She spills all the music industry tea.
Ugh! it hasn’t been at least 24 hours yet since she’s been on the net. They could at least Wait…. to tell this l!e, again.
I know, they stay lying to hype up this h0. that stupid song is not even in the top 20.
Well stay off this site because this is a PRO Beyonce site. Go to the CMA sites and join those c****
Best revenge is your paper .i love how she make her hater seethe so effortlessly
Congrats Queen. If Eminem, Logic and Mac Miller can make rap music then Beyoncé can make country music. Get over it!!! Black peoples invented it anyway.
Ok
Go bey. I hope all young African American woman can love and support her.
Beyonce really is a crossover artist, if you hate her your clearly a hater.
As for the cma ha Beyonce helped yall now watch how she reup when it’s time for yall to help her.
Why?
For telling them their hair is bad
That there is division and this yellowbone garbage
No, African Americans MUST shun this corporate owned and controlled color struck pawn
When did Beyonce tell African Americans that their hair was bad? If she really felt that way, I’m quit sure Blue Ivy wouldn’t be walking around with an afro. Have a seat you f****** liar.
Since her dumb ass don’t know and is obviously come a white supremacy perspective, as she is, good hair is hair that stays on your head
Good hair is not Becky hair but it is to self hating blacks …..again, under the guise of black power her corporate handlers used her to shix on us gtfoh with that c*** good hair garbage
B**** wtf are you talking about? She never said that Becky with the good hair was white. YOU assumed that she was. We don’t even know who Becky is. So if anything, you have an inferiority complex about YOUR blackness.
You really tried it. Anybody with any sort of comprehension skill and knowledge on black hair politics knows what she meant by that line. “He only want me when I’m not there,He better call Becky with the good hair” To put everything into context since you’re trying to distort it, She starts off by noting that he doesn’t appreciate her for her being, than she goes onto to tell him to call his WHITE (becky) woman that he is showing he values over his family and wife. Now it is no secret that some (not all) black people who date outside of their race and community do so because they idolize European features over black features. That is basically what she is accusing him of for stepping out on his black family to cheat with a white woman. I find it funny that people keep trying to push this notion of her being self-hating yet she is married to a black man (that you all constantly clown for his black features) with a black child with natural hair(that is also clowned). Y’all can keep harping on blonde weave and her naturally being light skinned she has a lot more black love and shows it than some of you that hate on her.
@WhosBad
Exactly! Beyonce is married to a BLACK MAN and has a BLACK CHILD who she allows to embrace her NATURAL HAIR. Despite the fact, that haters like Briano were dragging that little girl through the mud. YET they wanna leave Beyonce a self hater. *Rolls eyes* mmmkkayy…
*label
Yeah, she helped the CMAs get their lowest ratings in over two decades.
Not true! This was the highest rated show in years
Um, sorry kid, that article was from a satire site. The CMAs had their LOWEST ratings in years.
Lies!
considering that the game snacted everyone’s ratings, the CMAs came in second only dropping a few from last year. Im pretty sure its gonna be lower next year and the year after.
Look at the VMA ratings. Ppl only watch a certain portion and they disappear like some of yall fathas
Good for her! It would be cool if it became a hit on country radio. That way it could make up for the downward plunge of”Hold Up”
Okay. That happens to most artists after every award show. Next.
Every artist except your fave.
HA!
the lemonade Era stays winning, Album of the Year, Grammy’s here we come
Yass! You posted Mickey Guyton! She just a record deal with one of the biggest country labels and got EVERY radio station to commit to her lead single in week 1… the first time for a country debut single.
*just got a record deal.
Good for you queen Bey haters have nothing onyou
Truth be told, this is just Beyonce’s way of campaigning for Album of the Year.
Exactly! She couldn’t give 2 f**** about the CMA’s or the ppl on here going back and forward. She still salty about that AOTY Award, she has made that pretty clear with her recent promo stops. The sad part is she still might not win.
Slay
The Legendary Slayage! The Queen realises the version everyone eanted for free (again) and just let the other one sell. Imagine if she uploaded Daddy Lessons ft Dixie Chicks to Itunes. She also released the MV to Tidal! ???…. Queen of self sabotaging! Oh well, who needs singles when you your damnself dominate the industry! Also Beyonce is 1 of 9 musicians on EBONY Power 100 Honorees list!
She went to the Country Music Awards and slayed with a song off of a pro black themed album ✊✊✊
That album was not a black album
The message was Becky s good hair, typical white supremist dribble from this color struck c***
You don’t even know who Becky with the good hair is. She could be black for all you know. Now shut the f*** up and let me rejoice this slayage in peace.
…but the album was built off of cheating and scandles and forgiveness, with a hint of women empowerment not being “pro black”. The “pro black” songs didn’t even fit into the theme of the of the album. Despite the fact that they are equally as good and equally as talked about as “Sorry”, “Hold Up”, “Sandcastles” & “Pray You Catch Me” (well, maybe not Freedom and more so Formation), just like “Girls”, “Grown Woman” & “Bow Down”, they really don’t fit into the project as a whole despite being the first taste of their respective projects. “Formation” & “Freedom” should’ve been released as stand alone singles last year ahead of her MIA concert, placing them with 2 songs that played more to the story & concept of the album. Her VMA performance was the perfect example, after performing 4 songs all threaded together conceptually, it seemed awkward to hear “Formation” next.
YOUR OPINION. The album is very politically charged. Hence, the reason why those country music fans were trying to BOYCOTT her from performing. The end!
Opinion… okay just like your opinion of a politically charged “pro black” album includes songs like “Sandcastles”, because that screams “BLACK PPL ARE DIEING OF HATE CRIMES” or “Sorry” & “Hold Up”, songs about cheating on your wife… It’s not politically charged, 2 songs that are akwardly place at the end of the album yet still don’t fit are politically charged.
And the reason why the ppl who were trying to Boycott her performance was for 1) they felt she was not a true country artist, whether white or black, the non racist comments were about the CMA’S choosing another pop artist based off they’re name instead of they’re genre. One country song, which incorporates New Orleans influences as well, doesn’t make a true artist of the genre. AND 2) Some were racist and brought up an accident that happen BEFORE “LEMONADE” DROPPED AND WAS HEARD IN FULL to support their point, being the anti police/anti Beyonce/boycott event. Which comes back to a pro black song, “Formation”, and NOT the album as a whole. It’s not “the end” if you’re going to a close minded Stan.
They labelled her a POLICE HATER and tried to ban her from the CMA’ s because of songs like Formation. Her Album promotes a pro black message whether you’d like to admit it or not!
2 SONGS PROMOTE A BLACK MESSAGE, THATS IT. STOP TRYING TO MAKE THIS MORE THAN WHAT IT REALLY IS. JUST 2 SONGS, AND THE MOST POPULAR POORLY PROMOTES A BLACK MESSAGE. IS THERE SOMETHING WRONG WITH YOU COMPREHENSION?
Shut your stupid ass up! From her Superbowl performance, to her BET Awards performance, to her CMA performance ALL of them have prompted a good pro black message #BlackLivesMatter
It really is crazy to me to see how Lemonade really flew over a lot of peoples heads. You’re talking about comprehension when you didn’t comprehend a thing about this album if this is all you took from it. Formation and Freedom has a stronger pro-black message lyrically but do not get it twisted the WHOLE album is about being black and a black woman. She is speaking about life through the eyes of a black woman. She is talking about love and pain,marriage, forgiveness her father her self worth all of it was clearly explained through the BLACK imagery she tied in with the lyrics and the spoken word poems which is why she released the movie with the songs first so people could understand what she was feeling and her image for the songs she was singing. There is a reason the WHOLE album it’s being used by Texas University to explore the framework of black feminism. Being black is not just about us being shot by the cops. MY GOD. as for the CMA it was racially motivated period. She would have gotten backlash for being their because country artist don’t like pop acts in their stuff true, but being branded a cop hater, the tons of racist comments on social media about her from CMA fans and the ridiculous lengthen the CMA went through to erase any proof of her performing has NEVER happened to any of the other non black pop artist that have performed there I wonder why? Get real.
THANK YOU, YOU STUPID MOTHER F*****, since you were so excited to call me a stupid ass, your retarded ass didn’t even realize that you further proved my point, the SB performance and the BET Awards performance were pro black BECAUSE THEY WERE PERFORMANCES OF THE ONLY 2 PRO BLACK SONGS ON THE ALBUM! Besides these 2 songs, what other songs on the album give you “I’m black and I’m proud”? What part of the CMA’S performance, where she sung about her father and husband with 3 white American women gave you a pro black revolution feeling? How is someone talking about getting f***** and going out to eat, wearing Givenchy pro black? Do you even know WTF pro black means? And typing “#BlackLivesMatter” just furthers your stupidity because that doesn’t support your flawed reply.
Take away all the performances and the visual aspect of the album, take away Formation and Freedom. Now Please explain how this album pertains to ONLY a black womans life! None of these other 10 songs are racially explored but do go in depth to explain the hurt of a woman who has been betrayed and cheated on yet forgives her husband, & all that good stuff. 2 songs DONT and have never made an entire album a full piece on “life through a black woman’s eyes” or “pro black”!
Lol Uh no we aren’t going to take away any of the aspects of what makes the album pro black because that’s disingenuous. That’s like telling someone to read one sentence from a story than tell them what the bases of what the story is was about. You have to take the project as a whole because that’s what it was given to you as. I didn’t say that woman of other races couldn’t relate to the WOMAN aspect of it,but people are always going to relate to what they see themselves in. Beyonce is a Black woman and her singing about the strides and emotions she feels resonates with a lot black woman who look at her and see someone who is black like them, married (or in a relationship) to a black man like them, has black children like them and have maybe went through the things she is speaking of in all the songs and adding in imagery of self love and our natural features so that we could also SEE ourselves in the music made it resonate even more with a lot of black woman. There are many articles some positive and negative about Lemonade and the black feminism stance it took. I suggest you educate yourself before coming at me with more non sense.
@WhosBad
Couldn’t have said it better myself.
@tyler they are really trying my girl bey today!

Rihanna Dethrones Kanye West to Become ‘Queen of Shoes’

Rihanna Fenty Puma Runway Collection
Three hours: That’s how long it took for Rihanna’s first shoe for Puma — the Creeper — to sell out when it debuted last fall and it continued to gain momentum during this year.
The Fenty Puma Creeper was the only choice for the 2016 Shoe of the Year: The sought-after honor will be presented at the 30th annual Footwear News Achievement Awards in New York on Nov. 29.
“In my wildest dreams, I never would have imagined an honor like Shoe of the Year,” Rihanna told FN. “It means so much to me to make a mark like this in the shoe and sneaker industry and to have so many people share my love for the Creeper.”
FN selects the shoe of the year based on retail sales, consumer feedback, social media prowess and overall buzz. The award has been handed out just three times: Kanye West took it home last year and accepted it in person with a heartfelt and funny 20-minute speech about his fashion rise and hit Yeezy Boost 350 sneaker with Adidas. In 2014, tennis legend Stan Smith was on hand to accept the prize for his own hot signature shoe with Adidas.
“Shoe of the Year is the most coveted award because it truly reflects industry dominance,” said Michael Atmore, FN’s editorial director. “Like Stan Smith and Kanye West, Rihanna made a statement shoe that drove global excitement and generated huge sales. Rihanna and Puma pushed the market in a new direction with an overnight sensation that has real legs.”
This year, Rihanna’s Creepers have flooded Instagram feeds, caused site crashes and popped up on eBay the moment the shoes sell out. Fans of Rihanna’s bold, devil-may-care approach to fashion have scrambled to get their hands on a pair of Creepers, which have released in an array of mostly neutral colorways over the past year. But it’s not just female fans who are scooping up the style: Rihanna and Puma have also released the Creepers in men’s sizing with success.

The Creeper — which has been worn by Cara Delevingne, Gigi and Bella Hadid and The Weeknd, among other celebrities — is a twist on Puma’s classic styles, decked out with a Creeper-style sole. Rihanna, who serves as creative director for the athletic brand, designed the shoe with input from menswear brand Mr. Completely, which had previously made her custom Adidas and Nike sneakers.

Since the release of the Creeper, Rihanna and Puma have dropped a laceless trainer and faux fur slides. She’s also put on two Fenty x Puma runway shows, most recently for spring ’17 at Paris Fashion Week in October.
As Rihanna steps into the shoe spotlight, FN is also acknowledging the continued success of West and Adidas, which is why Adidas North America president Mark King will be honored with the Person of the Year award.
Other honorees at the event, affectionately known as the Shoe Oscars, include Designer of the Year Paul Andrew, Lifetime Achievement Award winner Aldo Bensadoun, Icon Award winner Iris Apfel and Hall of Fame inductee Linda Fargo, fashion maven at Bergdorf Goodman.
Stay tuned for more of the 2016 winners, including Company of the Year, Brand of the Year and Style Influencer. The FN Achievement Awards are sponsored by the Fashion Footwear Association of New York (FFANY), Footwear Distributors and Retailers of America (FDRA), Zappos Luxury and Two Ten Footwear Foundation.

@tyler I age I may not like everything about Rihanna as an artist but I do love her creepers I have 2 pairs of them and they are very fashionable and go really well with a lot of casual looks. She deserves a post on this because she really did give Puma the flair they needed.
Huh?
What do you mean huh? I said TGJ should make a separate post on it because it’s a commendable feat for her as I own 2 pairs and I like them. I don’t have a problem giving anybody their props.
Was confused as to why you @ me. I didn’t mention anything about Rihanna or Puma.
That’s weird I clicked the respond button to this post so I don’t know why it has your name @ didn’t even notice it. Sorry.
Taylor swift hasn’t released an album since October 2014. Only once has she performed live this year – at the US Grand Prix, last month.
And yet Taylor Swift has still managed to be named the highest-earning female musician of 2016, earning $170 million (139m) – beating Adele into second place and Madonna into third.
This is what you call slay:)
$170 millions is def a slay, but lets not act like Tayluicfer didn’t do anything to earn that. 1989 was released in October of 2014 and she didn’t tour until May of 2015. Only 6 dates of that tour was performed before Forbes new counting period of June 1 2015- June 1 2016. Leaving 79 dates to be performed along with her album sales, Apple deals and whatever else deals she has going on.
.
The true slayage is Adele making all that money from Album sales and Touring alone!
LMFAOOO The slavi is pressed bringing up Ríhérpés in a Beyonce post when they always cry foul at her being brought up in a none Rihorse post!
Typical fleavhive rather go into a state of psychosis rather than accept the truth about this colorstruck yellowbone clown
Becky has always been s reference for we know who just like Shanene she put out her masters message that they have spewed to instituinakuze their racism that they are “good”
Preferred, the standard.
I aoplaud all of you who have woken up, jay and bey are nothing but poison, as intended.
Do not expose your children or yourself to their filth for a buck bs
Actions speak louder than words. Beyonce is married to a black man, has a black child, and identifies herself as a black woman. You sound ignorant. Youre just mad because your fave isn’t using her platform for the greater good. She uses her platform to promote some of the biggest black stereotypes in society: DRUG USE , violence, and laziness.
Wtf are you even talking about you psycho?
Can i ask why you hate beyonce so,has she ever done you wrong…i get that everyone is entitled to their opinion but you only ever spew pure hate for this woman.You need to find a peaceful place or b at peace with yourself.
Some of yall are ignorant and I can tell yall are young and stupid. Do you think a 400 million dollar, 20 plus grammy winning, (and other accolades) woman is gonna let an All Lives Matter convention play her.
NO!!!
Country music originated from BLACK CULTURE. Beyonce knows her s***.
She went to that ALL LIVES MATTER convention and brought THE DIXIE CHICKS, out of all people.
Beyonce is petty and knows exactly what she doing. She dont give a f*** about the white tears being shed nor do The Dixie Chicks.
Yall better goole The Dixie Chicks. They were shunned from the All Lives Matter…i mean country music world.
Bey did this for a reason!!!
Meanwhile Rihanna is filming for Hollywood, has the best shoe in 2016 and beypropmeup is trying to generate press through controversy as she always has (DC breakup, pregnancy shenanigan)
If she truly had the talent they fake people would still be tslkig about the performance like people talked about Rihanna LOTB
With clown it’s always how good she looks, who’s hating, her hair….nothing about the so called talent
She is a loser because she is a pawn with no integrity and wow her ‘music’ is actually noise and a means to remind that she is a yellowbone, dumb wow
Typical tugboat, bringing rih into a bey post. and lets not go there with controversy.
Didnt rih publicist spread the jay/rih rumors to get traction about her single
didnt rih go back to her abuser
didnt rih stay with her abuser even though he was juggling her and tran
didnt rih taunt tran after the fact
shall i continue…..
Adele for album of the yr.. She & Taylor are killin it! ????????
You’re gonna be very upset when Bey wins….
Beyonce really looked amazing on that stage! It’s nothing like owning a room when you’re in the midst of a few haters! Still, many showed her love and this performance with DC (Dixie Chicks) was so hot!
Where’s the post about Bey being at the Hillary Clinton campaign tonight! I also hear she is going to perform!? Love the pic of her wearing the “Im With Her” shirt!
Also I LIVEEEEE FOR WHEN @WHOSBAD MAKES HER LEGENDARY 7 MONTH APPEARANCES TO DRAG THE HATERS!!! ?????????
Lol me too. All these b****** are her son’s and I ain’t talking bout Phoenix.
Lol I’m always on here reading the articles I just don’t bother commenting because you guys all be holding it down!
Thanks! Your comments are always well informed and thought out. Truly one of the more unbiased and educated commentators on this blog. Your opinions and words are always nice to see when you decide to comment. Tori disappeared quick up above lol!
