Like you really should know about deep Brandy album cuts before you are giving a "grade" or a "score" to any R&B artist.

not true of, say, bob dylan though right lex?

I didn't think of that as a "rap" so much as one of those spoken word codas that bands like Human League used to throw in, made it more tolerable to approach it that way.

Yeah you're probably right. There is still something about it that I find quite annoying everytime, maybe just his voice? Those Phill Oakey moments were always so perfect.

I really have zero excuse for not knowing she was in town last week.

bring it on: all or nothing is still stone cold classic.

Rihanna gets more lines than in battleship!

lots of "solange finally gets her first hit" jokes, which, sad lol

most watched solange video already

Really uncomfortable with the way the internet is celebrating this. An assault just doesn't seem funny at all to me, especially when we don't know the circumstances

yeah this is pretty fucked up

yay ad revenue

headlines you guys. viral clicks.

J/B's reax kinda scream "here goes Solange again" don't they?

*obligatory note that I know nothing about the sitch, of course!

either she's used to stuff like this or she felt jay-z had what was coming for him or she's keenly aware of not doing anything detrimental in public

interesting she left with solange. and she posted this the next day: http://instagram.com/p/ntRW9SPw3g/

that would be beyond supernaturally aware of not doing anything detrimental in public...then again she is Beyonce, maybe thats how her life is

there's a nonzero chance she was literally on an airplane when the video was leaked https://twitter.com/solangeknowles

pageant the pain away~

oh for the love of god

i mean i'm probably an internet-clickbait-ad-dollarz-asshole but that twit pic up there about Jay at the family reunion made me lol even though assault is definitely not hilarious

this was kind of funny and then I saw Hoos post a memepic on Facebook of a TMZ screenshot of this superimposed on Michelle Obama's #BringBackOurGirls picture and Evan R has a point

it's "assault" but it's also solange trying to beat up jay z, who has a bodyguard on him, as beyonce watches and laughs. it's funny

it's funny when people beat one another!

What is Solange/Who is Solange/What is a Solange?

Solange can refer to the French-Latin word for "solemn" or "dignified." It can also refer to a Christian saint, or a commune in France. But those definitions of the word are not what people are talking about today.

p shady imo for TMZ to refer to Solange simply as "Beyonce's sister"

Most people have no idea who you're talking about if you say "Solange"

I was gonna say, that's the least shady part of this whole thing

'yeah you later too'

what is a solangew

...a solange

let's all forget that typo happened

"i distinctly heard her say solanjew"

just in the interest of clarity, in my echo chamber of left wing people the photoshopped-michelle thing has been making the rounds as a critique of using the fucked up crisis to pivot to intervention talk, and the TMZ screenshot fit into that joke train. not saying it was some trenchant truth to power shit or anything but def didn't intend to make light of whats happening there.

In the interest of clarity, my objection is less about the seriousness of Solange's attack on Jay-Z and more about seeing the most visible powerful African-Americans in America turned into a "lol black people" meme, which for obvious reasons irritates me.
