[Beyonce Knowles]

Really? It should be obvious that not everybody is going to like every kind of music. And racist? So they expect you to like all black artists' music, or just hers? What if you liked music by other black artists, but just not Beyonce?

(Anonymous) 2015-05-07 11:10 pm (UTC)(link)
Yeah pretty much. Oh and according to these people, if you don't like rap? You're a racist. And you're not allowed to point out the sexism in the lyrics, ever, not even if you spend 95% of your time complaining about the sexism in the lyrics of white musicians.

I think todd in the shadows agrees with you.

She's just a pop singer, and her music (that she doesn't write) usually sucks. She sing okay, but so do a lot of singers. She doesn't do anything else besides that. I'm a bit baffled why she has this following that somehow exempts her from the usual formula.

Same. I keep thinking that album came out like last year instead of 2013 too...

That pose reminds me of the girl at the beginning of It Follows.
Totally agree, she's ridiculously overrated in every way

Ignoring the stupidity of believing that disliking rather mediocre music makes someone racist....damn, those shoes look like they hurt.

No one wafts their farts like Beyonce

That's why she's so beloved, OP.

I'm not that fond of her music either. It's not a big deal.

Eh, you aren't going to enjoy all musicians; that's to be expected. Sometimes people will look at you funny if you aren't into popular stuff, but at the end of the day it isn't a big deal. If people want to pretend it is then that's their right, but you are fine.

For the record, I don't listen to radio (Well, unless you count 8tracks, which isn't the same) and rarely hear her music. I like some of her (older) songs, but not more than anything else.

(Anonymous) 2015-05-07 11:49 pm (UTC)(link)
She doesn't help her completely undeserved reputation by being a smug bitch and posing in instagram like she knows she's hot shit. It's obnoxious, but we to anyone who says that because the Tumblr ultra feminists come after you. I'm a fucking woman and I am certainly entitled to think her smug attitude is obnoxious.

I don't like her music either, OP. You're not alone.

I like some of her songs and don't care for others but I sure as hell wouldn't yell at anyone for not liking any of her music, what would be the point?

(Anonymous) 2015-05-08 12:43 am (UTC)(link)
Meh, I've never got why she's such a big deal. Her music is okay pop music, but it doesn't really appeal to me. Just ignore the Beehive.

(Anonymous) 2015-05-08 01:15 am (UTC)(link)
Yeah. So many people are like BEYONCE MY FLAWLESS QUEEN and I'm like... okay? I think I know one song of hers and it's fine but her music is not my cup of tea.

Honestly, I feel like this about Jaenelle Monae. Which is awful because I WANT to like her stuff, and I SHOULD, but it just... doesn't do it for me. I'm kinda mad at myself over it, since I LOVE robot shit and she seems like a cool person.

I don't understand people (in this comment section in particular) wondering why she IS popular though. She hit it big with her songs, that's reason enough.

But it's okay to not like her songs. Crazy in Love was my jam but I don't really like her recent stuff. An admitting that shouldn't bring you hate. Perhaps you need to change your circle of friends OP.

Text: I appreciate her creative merits, but I just plain don't enjoy most of her music. Try admitting that to most people I know, you're just a racist or hatin' on Queen Bey. :(

KELLY IS THE CHOSEN 1

I too can appreciate Beyonce's talent. While I personally enjoy her songs, you're free not to! I do however, think she's overrated. I'm just over her. Maybe she's just been over hyped, and the media just goes above and beyond whenever she does or says anything? IJDAS.

I always wished Kelly Rowland would have been as/more successful than Beyonce. I thought she had a better voice and was prettier. I guess the charisma was not in her favor (see Justin Timberlake: his charisma usurped the talent that was JC Chaze or w/e his name was)

I really admire Beyonce, both as a performer and a business woman, but I'm actually not super into her music.

Joining the rest who don't really like her. Which is funny because I love Destiny's Child. I think part of it came from getting sick of seeing her everywhere - the same thing happened with Jennifer Lopez and I'm only now getting to the point where I don't react that way to her.

Plus yeah, her songs really aren't that great.

(Anonymous) 2015-05-08 01:34 pm (UTC)(link)
I wouldn't ever get on people for not liking her unless they actually sounded racist in what they were saying. But all the folks in my fandom circles who call her a "smug bitch" are think the stuff Beiber gets up to is funny get my side-eye - hard.

(Anonymous) 2015-05-08 06:52 pm (UTC)(link)
I have no interest in her as a person or as a musician and I'm really tired of being told she's some kind of a Goddess when she's just mediocre and uninteresting.
