Beyonce "Bow Down" Controversy


HERE HER NEW SONG "BOW DOWN" 
http://soundcloud.com/beyoncemusic/bow-down-i-been-on


So this song that Beyonce released days ago is getting some CRAZY attention. The song is called "Bow Down/I Been On".  Now when I heard this song my first reaction was, "Who the hell is she talking to??" Is this a song for the haters or for chicks in general?? Since she hasn't released a statement about the song, I can only go off of the lyrics. Here are the lyrics to the beginning of the song.....

“I know when you were little girls/You dreamt of being in my world/Don’t forget it, don’t forget it/Respect that, bow down bitches/I took some time to live my life/But don’t think I’m just his little wife/Don’t get it twisted, get it twisted/This my (expletive)/Bow down bitches”


Now I won't take the song personally, because I can care less about what she is saying. But to all the fans, haters, and the opinionators, here is my take... If she is supposed to be about women empowerment and a role model to young girls, this song has ruined that. I feel as if this song was leaked out just to stir the pot. By the reaction of the media, and fans, we are still keeping Beyonce's name in our mouths. That's what her team wants from us. This act of desperation keeps her current in the media. Let's go back to the sales of her fourth album. They were pretty low, and that was shocking to many, because she is Beyonce. Well what that told me was people weren't feeling her and she needs to sit her ass down somewhere. Next thing we know, she announces on the VMA's that she is expecting her first child. By her doing this, her record sales sky rocketed. THIS IS MARKETING PEOPLE!!!!! Her team is so cold with it, that whatever she does, if its perceived in a bad light, will be flipped and made right. Lip syncing at the inauguration was wrong as hell. That was a total embarrassment, and she should feel like crap... Pulling that stunt like nobody was going to find out. So, since she got all that shade, they boosted her up for the super bowl and she shuts the damn city of New Orleans down. Following that 10 minute show, comes a documentary of her life, and an exclusive interview with Oprah. Everyone can relate to her now, because she showed her vulnerable side and talks about her baby. Following all of that, the tickets to her tour, "The Mrs. Carter Show", sells out in minutes. AGAIN, THIS IS MARKETING PEOPLE!!!! Then, out of nowhere, THIS song has hit the scene. So, as I'm typing and getting a better perspective of her journey in the past year, I have to commend her and her team, because this song is for all yall who have supported her and see her as the Virgin Mary. If yall haven't realized it by now, yall have bowed down to her already. She is simply saying something that is nothing new. Maybe she is laughing at the way her team has controlled the media, and the fans. So, hail to King Beyonce, because she is running the Beyonce fans!!!! Again this is my opinion on the matter. I am not a hater because I can care less. Do you, Beyonce, because at the end of the day these bitches have kissed your feet already. See you on the next Millie Says!!!!
