I get it.  I’m gonna stream some Kelis today to pay respects.

Is there an album that is better to stream for more compensation for her?  I’m not sure if she has released independently or not at some point.

i would stream Flesh Tone, it's a beautiful album

[Prince Ali]

Great job, Kelis! Call her out!!!

Why is that a problem? Don't forget that money speaks louder.

If you don’t see a problem I guess there isn’t

Britney used bebe rexha's song on the VMA without her knowledge as well. And bebe herself said she was upset about it. I call it overreacting. Better remembered than not remembered. 

Thanks for that story, as I mentioned, not a good look.

I love Beyoncé’s fans. Although, I think people need to be a little critical of a billionaire who steals other people’s work, image and legacy. She has the money to come up with original content.

At least Britney called and cussed her out. lol Beyonce just steals other folks material, releases it, and never publicly acknowledges their cries. 

Britney did write Everytime and she gave a co-credit to the other girl.  She getting her royalties.

Britney wasn't the main writer or composer of the song, yet took majority of the credit. That's even worse than what Beyonce did lol. 

Kelis didn't write the song, therefore, she didn't owe her a call. You think Britney called Cher when she recorded "the beat goes on"? Doubt it.

I think Kelis just exposed something that is normalized in this industry. 

She also clearly stated how Pharell has stolen writing credits via recording contracts... This is the type of clownery that you have to deal with on a daily basis in this industry. 

[bad media karma]

I love the new Beyonce album but she's known for shady behaviour like this

[MortalMarshmallow]

Sampling? I thought Bey was some genius, able to create her own badass stuff from scratch, not use already existing beats . Oh well... it's all about the promo and hype then, not original ideas...

I hardly think Beyoncé would sample without paying it. I don’t think she has to give notice to singer maybe the label or something. Sometimes the singer does not own the music.

Yeah, beyonce is well know for not stealing others artists material.
