Beyoncé bout to drop Takeover 2
But you didn’t write the song, Pharrell and Chad wrote it. I like Kelis but she needs have a seat.
Your Milkshake may bring all the boys to the yard but her Lemonade will always slay
Mariah said when she first started that she wanted to make sure her paperwork was good, so she became a writer. And she’s had a songwriting partner for most of her career.
As a result, she can eat for life off of one damn Christmas song and not talk about how she got jerked by Rape N U Records
To a certain extent I can see her issue with Bey not reaching out to say hey I'm gonna sample your song. Just on some mutual respect between professionals.
But that's not what the real issue is - she's mad because she don't own the song and there was no requirement to reach out to her. Is Kelis making these videos if she knew a fat publishing check was on her way?
How you calling Beys moves "thievery"? She can't steal something from you that you don't own. Then throwing words like "stupid" in there is kinda classless.
But hey, as usual, mentioning Beys name will get you media attention at least for a little while
She wanted to be broken off a piece for real.So much anger cause she didn’t get a call or text from Beyonce?
She said Pharrell didn’t write shytChad Hugo caught a stray too. She called him an amoeba and spineless
On the flip side, the Kelis / Pharrell / Chad shyt just didn’t work out. They moved on and produced a trillion hits and her apex was with them with Pharrell writing.
He blessed her with Milkshake when he wanted to give it to Britney (prolly woulda been a bigger smash).
Kelis’ issue (like many artists) should be with the way the industry is set up. Folk wanna make music but not do their due diligence when it comes to the “business” side.
Doubt Beyoncé cares about her because she got kids to raise and an album to promote along with showing her cheeks on IG.
Now is their pettiness? Who knows but they Neptunes been doing them since like 1992. If they wanna sample their own song that they wrote/produced, fukk it! When Beyoncé wants you out of a billion producers, you pull up
You answered your own inquiry. Imagine telling Beyoncé no because of some petty issues with Kelis.nikkas saying she didn't write anything but we know how funny industry cats can be with writing credits. pharrell let that cac robin thicke have writing credit on blurred lines and when the marvin gaye lawsuit came robin said he aint write shyt and was up in the studio high and drunk as hell. they could've broke ole girl off something
I don't think she's asking for anything crazy. she didn't even ask for money in them videos. she just said it would've been nice to know about it. maybe they could've pulled her in and had her be a part of the creative process and broke her off some credits. but it's also possible she burned a bridge so badly that they aint even wanna involve her. which again begs the question of why even sample her. it does come off as a petty power move by pharrell since she's been going at him for a minute
TUH ...sounds like a personal problemI understand Kelis' frustration with Pharrell but she's been shading Beyonce' since the 00s, not buying the "I just found out the day before her big release". She been ain't liked her.
