re: "What White Women Can Learn From Adele’s Grammys Speech"

Because the Recording Artists Academy is full of white supremacists? I don't understand....

If you plopped down a foreigner with no clue about American demographics, and you exposed them to a week's worth of American media between TV shows, movies, articles, etc. they'd swear that 50% of our population was black.

And gay.

They need to just do away with these awards shows if they are going to bitch and moan about the injustice, racism, sexism, etc of the selection of winners every fricking year. It's so nauseating. The best part is, they can't blame conservatives for picking Adele over Beyonce, because it's just more ultraliberal entertainment weirdos behind all this shite in the first place. So infight away loonies. You are literally fighting and bitching about absolutely nothing. Subjective fricking awards.

we can learn from her instinct to use a public moment that was, perhaps wrongly, afforded to her to honor the work of a woman who truly deserved that moment herself.

LMAO


If anyone deserved the AOTY award it was Sturgill Simpson, the only one of the 5 that actually wrote and composed their album. Beyonce is a very talented performer, but she does very little in regards to her albums outside of sing on them, she is a puppet.

Even if she did nothing but sing (which is a pretty big exaggeration) it wouldn't matter that she had help because album of the year is a collaborative award.

Although it was originally presented to the artist alone, the award is now presented to the main artist, the featured artist(s), the producer, the engineer and/or mixer and the mastering engineer.

The insanity is truly staggering

(no message)

Well I can't say that I 100% know that all she did is sing, but I can make a pretty good guess as to why I feel she doesn't contribute much.

Lemonade is an extremely well done album, but I can say without a doubt that Beyonce isn't the mad genius behind it her stans seem to think, and the worship is strange to me.

First, there were 72 writers involved.

Father John Misty was a contributor on the album, and has said she was not involved in the process of creating the song, and that Lady Gaga was more involved.

“Our friend Amil played her some of my music. He was having a meeting with them and played her some of my stuff and I guess she really loved it. Sent me an email and said she wanted me to write.

“With ‘Hold Up’ they just sent me the beat and the hook. I wrote that first verse and the ‘jealous and crazy’ part. After we recorded I was like ‘we cannot send this to her. This is ridiculous.’ I just couldn’t. My voice is not – the song is not intended to be sold by me. But it was never an ambition it was never anywhere near – it’s completely absurd that Lady Gaga and Beyoncé are my only co-writes. Everyone else is like ‘ehhh’.”


He also contributed to ‘Sinner’s Prayer’ and ‘Come To Mama’ on Gaga’s recent album ‘Joanne’.

“That was way more immersive than the Beyoncé thing. Oh, we were hanging. It was like five in the morning, someone handing me an acoustic guitar and I’m just like, ‘what are hands.’ We had so much fun. Mark [Ronson] – just watching him produce, it was amazing,” he added.

Beyonce is an extremely talented performer, and she has a great voice. But, this guilt-trip people have to go through over beating her is beyond ridiculous. The white-guilt trip shite has to stop.

As a white woman I say "frick That".
