I like all the Destiny's Child members. They are equally talented. Each of them have their own sounds. I really like Michelle's voice in that Survivor song and a few others. As to why they are not promoted the same...who knows whats really going on there. They were actually one of the few groups that I thought could have had excellent solo careers after the whole group thing!! Solange...Her songs are good, but she really needs to calm down. There is nothing nice or appealing about somebody who is talented but abnoxious. Its not cute and it doesn't make you stand out more by always talking about "Not being compared to your sister". Please..I am sure a lot of people wouldn't even give you the time of day if you weren't "Beyonce's Sister". There are a lot of people who are far more talented than she is "Chrisette Michelle/Janelle Monae" and a few others that could run/sing circles around her.. But do they get the same amount of coverage/air time/interviews that Solange gets? NO...So she just needs to sit her ass down and accept graciously what has been given to her. Being associated with Beyonce isn't such a bad thing..She knows it.. Also I am sure she must have known about that Beyonce/Mama Tina interview beforehand and probably did nothing to stop it. So....Enjoy the attention while it lasts..It will be over soon. Beyonce is bound to drop another album soon...Enjoy it!!

Out of it, You completely shut down the conversation. Thank you for bringing some logical information to this played out topic. I can't wait to see what Beyonce does once she's done with her Columbia contract. Because as famous as Beyonce is, her concert and videos look mad cheap. She DESERVES to have a budget that reflects her status.

I dont give a fuck what anyone says, Solange, Michelle, Kelly, Letoya Luckett, ARE ALL GOING TO FLOP HARD ON THEIR NEXT ALBUMS! NO ONE GIVES A FUCK ABOUT THEM! NO ONE! FLOP CITY! ALL I WANT TO KNOW IS.... Why is it that Beyonce gets all the FLACK like this is something new! Not even because I'm a fan BUT lets take a trip a trip through the past shall we? Diana blows up, no one gives a fuck about Mary Wilson Michael Blows up, Jermaine FLOPS Justin BLOWS UP, JC FLOPS Beyonce Blows Up, Kelly and all of them flop BUT Now its conspiracy? WHY? Why is it so different now? I'm not suprised, from day one I saw Beyonce was gonna be the Star, Not because of her Father but Because, She has that WOW Factor, that IT Factor, that Work Ethic! Same goes for Michael, his brothers were made into a group BUT Joe felt that Mike was too young, BUT it was Mike who proved himself and made the Jackson 5 the Legends that they are! Beyonce has that same Drive! Matthew only gets 10% of these girls check, stop trying to make him out to be Berry Gordy or Quincy Jones, because he dont hold weight like that! Another Question: Michelle's single has been on I-Tunes for over a month now, Why arent yall buying it, if you feel she needs the support!

I'm starting to think maybe she is acting this way for publicity. Maybe she isn't a talentless schizophrenic spoiled brat like most of us seem to think. We'll see how her record sales do and determine if it backfires or not.

Kelly, Michelle, Beyonce and Solange are ALL signed to Music World. Yes, Solange "spoiled brat" attitude is just an act. An act to seperate her from Beyonce. It worked for Ashley and Jessica, and Matthew took notes. I'm LMAO @ how Solange people's are doing major damage control. Matthew isn't the reason for Kelly and Michelle's lack of success but there is no denying how much extra time he put into his daughter's career. It funny that somebody made the comment that it's Geffen that's pushing Solange, yet let Solange tell it, her father and label want her to be like the other pop stars and she has to fight to get them to let her be who she is. Once again, her fake image is put on blast. She wants people to believe she is this struggling artist like the other Neo-soul artists and it's not working. Solange doesn't want to live in others shadow yet her mama and sister are on a popular morning show promoting her album and trying to shove her down others throats. Diddy care about Kim so much but he can't stay faithful or comment to the woman. Whatever. These celebs are full of shit.

@PrincessLeah She only sold so much because A: She sampled a MJB track and struck Gold just like Ashanti did with Foolish on the Biggie beat! B: How many interviews did she do where she was talkin about Beyonce, Kelly, & Matthew! C: Why is there a rumor going around that she is set to do a duet with Beyonce on her second album? She tryin to dodge the Sophmore Jynx huh? Without Beyonce somewhere in the equation, Letoya is just a typical at a LABEL that has its own Money Problems! She wont get the good promo at her label either JUST LIKE MICHELLE! Beyonce & Matthew is the only thing that keeps folks focused on Letoya's album!

Once again, it ain't easy for anybody and it's not like she didn't use bee's name to promote her album. she talked about beyonce and the dc break up (7yrs later at the time)in every single interview i read of hers. Torn wasn't even top 20 on the hot 100 charts although it did well on the r&b charts, but all her other singles after that flopped. how can beyonce re-release a CD on the same day as when letoya's album when beyonce didn't even have an album out at the time? Also, what makes you think mathew was behind it even if your wrong assumption was actually indeed correct? you do know that there is someone highter above mathew with the title say i don't know.......THE LABEL PRESIDENT! what you meant to say was beyonce and the LABEL chose to put her cd on the itunes pre-order list that day and it wasn't a big deal because pre-order sales are generally not counted toward the first week sales because they are order months in advance. i swear if some of you all had to point out satan, you'd point to mathew

So to blame management *(Mat Knowles) is unfair. In the world of download and youtube, who buys cds anymore; not many people and let's not forget the booleggers. Kelly had a good chance of promotion "I told ya;ll I was gonna bump like this" had great potential and took off well, but she did not capitalize with a great follow-up and from there it all went down under.......Michelle is boring and Solo is crazy as hell, that leaves Beyonce and she jumped in with her whole body. And sometimes its about timing; don't hate the playas, hate the game!

i cant believe you guys are really fighting over what and why things happened to who news flash none of these people know you and none of them care about you weather your a stan, fan, hater, or someone who jus keeps it real, so stop fighting each other and hop off their dicks you are sooooo pathetic and if you caught feelings to what i just said then your probably the pathetic bitch im reffering to

[quote comment="187411"]It amazes me how they promote the hell out of Solange but Daddy Mat NEVER promoted Kelly or Michelle this way. Solange has been thrust down our throats over the last few months. Where was Kelly's promotion (she actually had a good CD)? SMDH![/quote] And thats exactly why Kelly shouldve moved on to bigger and better things instead of trying to be loyal to a family that were only looking out for their best interest.

1st or 2nd

The Knowles family are a trip

Beyonce's interviewing skills have improved. She doesn't sound as bad as she used to.

The 2nd Diddy clip cuts out mid way through :(

Uh Solo need to shut the hell up and sit down! She ain't sold nothing yet and she trippin!

Aw beyonce said "that's my baby" She loves her lil sis people need to stop trying to create some sort of beef or competition between them, everyone has sibling rivalry but at the end of the day that's her family.

[quote comment="187396"]UHHH CAN YOU SAY "SIT DOWN" SOLANGE? I LOVE SOLANGE AS AN INDIVIDUAL, HER MUSIC AND STYLE IS ALL THAT. BUTTTTTTTT SHE JUST TRIED TO PUT THE LADY AT FOX IN HER PLACE FOR ASSOCIATING HER W/ HER SISTER AND BRO IN LAW BUT THEN THE EARLY SHOW ASSOCIATES HER W/ HER AS BEYONCE'S LIL' SISTER...WHICH SHE IS AND SHE HAS NO PROBLEM.
