Lmao… STFU Kanye!

Beyonce (or Sasha Fierce, WTF) has been stealing Tina's swagger for years.

People grieve for thier mothers in different ways; Kanye's way is to have a slow and steady nervous breakdown as everyone watches and listens.

I hope he has a few people in his inner circle (beside the usual yes people) who will encourage him to get counselling.

Kanye has lost his dam mind.

Tina paved the way for mediocre singers like beyonce. She has class, sex appeal & creativity whereas beyonce just recycles what's been done in the 80s & 90s. She's a great entertainer, I'll give her that but better than Tina..NEVER!

Oh, Kanye. Gotta hand it to Matthew Knowles, though — he's got the whole inner circle and entourage on mesaage: "Beyonce is a legend." I can't wait 'til Cadillac Records opens and Beyonce's new album is old so that everyone can stop printing these Matthew Knowles press releases like they are news.

I agree that Kanye is on the way to a nervous breakdown. He needs some to take away his laptop and get him to counseling.

Aside from the fact that it its infuriating that black designers and actors have difficulty getting work because their industry prefers to hire those who are music stars, Beyonce did not seem to understand that "interpreting" the songs by adding flourishes is the EXACT OPPOSITE style of Etta James' clarity and simplicity.

Everyone, even me, thinks they can sing "At Last." Why? Because it's seems so direct — sounds so simple. That's Ms. James' genius. And none of us will ever be able to duplicate the "clarity" as Lunanoire points out, that makes "At Last" the classic that it is. There is hardly a run in that joint. Ms. James just opens her mouth and sings it straight. No gimmicks.

just because you can stretch a two syllable word over eight bars doesn't make you the greatest. i love Beyonce, but she doesn't come off as a natural. everything is overdone and carefully crafted with her. in my opinion, she is not even the greatest of her generation.

I am so tired of Beyonce really. I like her she has talent but why the comparison? She is very overdone and clearly is a puppet for her dad. She comes off as having no personality and just an overall ditz. Tina is from a different time and if she did not exist there would be no Beyonce. Kanye needs to go sit down better yet he needs someone to hug hime and tell him things are going to get better.

Tina has been rocking & rollin' long before Beyonce was born! Kanye needs to shut his big egotripping mouth. Arrogant mutherfucker!
