Some of y'all just saying anything. Most artists don't own their own music just like most people don't own a business.

Stop throwing around fake superiority when you don't control your narrative as a collective either.

Let's not act as if you've never worked a job and had your ideas stolen or where looked over for someone else.

Get some fukking compassion. I don't get how some of y'all move in life with those inflated ass chips on your shoulders. Be proud of our own artists stealing from each other for fukking Coli daps and clout that you can't never cash at no bank.
This place is full of dikkrider of the "industry".

Kelis ain't hot, so they shyt on her.

When you add the Jay-Z stans and some still bitter Nas' stans, well.

This n that...

100%

We've got people in this thread looking down at artists because they don't own their music....like that shyt is standard. Only a small portion of the largest artists own their publishing.

Kelis obviously isn't on that level and signed a terrible deal early in her career, and you can say shyt like she didn't have to sign the contract, but would you say that about all the blues and soul artists in the 50s and 60s who got completely fukked over by white record producers? :jbhmm:

The Coli is so fukking weird with this shyt...they'll clown artists for getting exploitated and then talk about how the music industry is full of culture vultures who fukk over artists. This anger though seems to be determined on whether you like the artist or not. And we know the Coli NasHive have feelings about Kelis :hubie:
The Coli is like that, clown an artist if its not their fav without addressin the logic behind the beef. I dont like Kelis as a person but respect her as an artist and understand where she is comin from. If it was Kelis who did the shady samplin pple would have a different tune.

There was no shady sampling. Beyoncé went thru proper LEGAL channels to get the sample clearance. This shyt is all egos and feelings.

The hive is corny. They have no clout in this, not like she’s someone they can cancel or blackball. They old asses need to recognize this ain’t 08 or when they could bully people Keri hilson out the industry LMAO
I get u like Kelis and all. But shorty is a doofus. This whole shyt was unnecessary. But she never liked Bey so it is what it is. But let’s not act like shorty is some warrior for righteousness or some shyt. Lol
