Beyonce Knowles a Racist?


We read:

“Pop star Beyonce Knowles has sparked controversy by saying she only makes records for black people.

Since the Deja Vu singer made the astonishing statement sales of her new album, B’Day, have fallen by 70 per cent in the US.

Beyonce, 25, said in an interview with Blender magazine: “I make black records. I write records like I speak, and I don’t try to change my songs so everyone else likes them.”

What if a popular white singer had said she only makes recordings for white people? It would get blanket media condemnation for weeks.
