Beyoncé Dishes on New Music & Equality.

Image and video hosting by TinyPic

On New Music:
"I’ve been working with Pharrell and Timbaland and Justin Timberlake and [The] Dream. We all started in the ’90s, when R&B was the most important genre, and we all kind of want that back: the feeling that music gave us."

Who Run The World?
"You know, equality is a myth, and for some reason, everyone accepts the fact that women don't make as much money as men do. I don't understand that. Why do we have to take a backseat? I truly believe that women should be financially independent from their men. And let's face it, money gives men the power to run the show. It gives men the power to define value. They define what's sexy. And men define what's feminine. It's ridiculous."

Preach. All mah ladies hew independent, throw your hands up fuh meh!

Does she talk about the saxophone? I'll read that part.
principino 12th-Jan-2013 11:37 pm (UTC)
I took a second to read the paragraph about income inequality and actually, that's not too bad there, Bey. It might be marketing but it's still a good message to be spreading to young women.
empirebird 12th-Jan-2013 11:43 pm (UTC)
She's been saying the same things for a while now tbh...
ediesedgwick 12th-Jan-2013 11:29 pm (UTC)
So I guess she's distancing herself from the flop "girl power" single that was almost entirely created by men?
likegunfire 12th-Jan-2013 11:32 pm (UTC)
you meant to say one of the most successful buzz singles in music history
kindafunnysad 12th-Jan-2013 11:34 pm (UTC)
i'm still convinced 4 was actually a buzz album for the new one
ediesedgwick 12th-Jan-2013 11:34 pm (UTC)
lmao yes

did she officially call it a buzz single after it failed as a first single?

What's with the whole body chain thing? It's tacky imo.
degele 12th-Jan-2013 11:35 pm (UTC)
she's worn body chains for, like, a decade. i think it's pretty sexy (depending on who is wearing it).
teeluh 12th-Jan-2013 11:39 pm (UTC)
I just feel like it would get caught on everything... it's like a necklace for your midriff. Idgi, but that's just me. *shrug* Props to those who have the body for it, though.
putyohandsonme 13th-Jan-2013 12:23 am (UTC)
Makes you wonder where the chain leads I guess lol.

I used to use filestube but it's getting pretty rough on there, a lot of the links are dead. sometimes I just search soundcloud and/or tumblr and dl from there using soundcloud downloader or an extension but the quality isn't always the best :(

Music-scaring comms on LiveJournal, mostly.

But I also sometimes buy my stuff from iTunes. If I'm in a pinch, I'll download the song from YouTube using a plugin that allows me to do so. The audio quality isn't amazing when I do this, though.

How did I know 90s type music(specifically r&b) would start to make a comeback. Can't wait to hear(but it already kind of has). Love ya Beyonce, speak your mind. <3

"Men define what's sexy"

says Beyonce whilst posing in her knickers for a men's magazine. Not that there is anything inherently wrong with that at all, or that these pictures are not what a woman would define as "sexy" but she's calling out the game while also participating in it. It's incongruous.

(But on the other hand, why shouldn't Beyonce be able to do whatever the hell kind of shoot she wants, fully clothed or not.)

frklphace 12th-Jan-2013 11:36 pm (UTC)
i feel like this photoshoot is the antitheses of what she tries to promote and i feel like she lowered her standards to do it idek.
ritzyroxie 12th-Jan-2013 11:37 pm (UTC)
It's horrid. The pictures look like something you'd find on a sororities' instagram.

blacklicorice99 13th-Jan-2013 12:13 am (UTC)
it's for GQ and she's a woman. I'm sure they came to her with their usual holding bare boobs and rolling on the floor fare
quiet_storm 13th-Jan-2013 12:55 am (UTC)
I didn't like it :(

She's...bent weirdly, idk.
mjspice 13th-Jan-2013 04:13 pm (UTC)
Yeah I don't like it either for some reason. :/

2013: the year of beyonce

*bows*
hoechlingurl 12th-Jan-2013 11:34 pm (UTC)
Thiefyonce has a point. Im all for girl power and women do let men ride all over them like shit. Fight back.

That said I am waiting with eager anticipation to see who accuses her of stealing they shit this year. ONTD should start a poll tbh.

B, you don't have to do tacky-ass photoshoots like that. Everyone already thinks you're the shit.
