Are there people who are offended by Beyonce's new song, Bow Down B*tches?
Had to go listen to Queen Bey's new song 'Bow Down Bitches' after reading mostly negative reviews about it. She has been criticized by a few celebrities, including singer Keyshia Cole and radio host Rush Limbaugh. The worst of the criticism is from blogger Sandra Rose. Couldn't believe what she wrote about Beyonce...so hateful! Read itafter the cut...
Below is what US blogger, Sandra Rose wrote about Beyonce and the song
Sometimes a person’s chronological age is not a proper indicator of their developmentalage. That should always be taken into consideration when dealing with a person who behaves much older or younger than their stated age.
Take Beyonce for instance: chronologically she is 31, but developmentally, she behavesmore like a petulant, overindulged child. Sheconstantly lies; she plants stories in the media; she steals other people’s work and credits the work as her own; she lip syncs when she should sing live; she simulates being pregnant while allowing someone else to do all the heavy lifting of giving birth.
In other words, she constantly tests limits and boundaries.
The fact that Beyonce posted a picture of herself as a child is no coincidence. Developmentally, Beyonce has not grown beyond the age she was when that picture was taken.
On Sunday Beyonce threw a digital tantrum in the form of a horrendous track titled “Bow Down Bitches” on her personal website . Like most children who throw tantrums, Beyonce is seeking attention from those who adore her.
It doesn’t matter to Beyonce that the track isappallingly bad. What matters most to her is the attention she gains from releasing it.

Basketmouth set to host Tv show live at parkers
Basketmouth is set to become the first Nigerian to host prestigious comedy gig and TV show Comedy Central Presents… Live at Parker’s. The show will hold in South Africa next month (April). Here’s what Basketmouth had to say;
I’m excited, it’s like a dream come true. I am really buzzed to be reppin’ for Naija at Comedy Central Presents… Live at Parker’sin April.
I’ve always wanted to do something that big. I never knew it was going to come this soon and I’m happy about it. When I perform outside Nigeria, my material is universal, which is the why I was called to do this gig. They saw me perform somewhereand liked what I did which was purely universal. I don’t have any problem communicating with people of mixed race. The jokes are not only based on culture but also on the power of communication. As long as you’refunny and people understand you, you’re good to go.
So watch out: the Nigerian invasion has begun!
Evert Van Der Veer, Head of Comedy Central Africa commented:
It’s been our long-held ambition to include Nigerian comedians and comedy in our programming lineup – and what better way to start than with Basketmouth - theking of Nigerian comedy himself!
Comedy Central Presents Basketmouth Live at Parker’s will air exclusively on Comedy Central (DStv Channel 122) on Friday 14 June, 2012 at 07:55 WAT/08:55 CAT.
We’re right behind you… Represent 9ja!!!

M.I Ends 3-Year Feud With Iceberg Slim,
NETPod: M.I Ends 3-Year Feud With Iceberg Slim, Features On ‘Ayanfe’ Remix
‘Where’s Iceberg Slim he was the coldest cat/Get your swag back daddy where your focus at‘ – (Jay Z, Kingdom C0me, 2006).
Even though Jay Z wasn’t referring to the Nigerian rapper, we bet Iceberg can relate with those lines…
Remember when the talented rapper returned from the US in 2009 and dissed M.I on the ‘Am I better‘ joint? Then remember M.I taking him to the cleaners on ‘Beef’ and later on at the NEA after party?
Things subsided after that even though the familiar foes remained in their corners still throwing jabs. M.I in an interview with NET in 2012 revealed he was going to reach out to Ice for a rap collabo; but that didn’t happen, with the latter dissing him on his Jimmy JATT JumpOff freestyle.
Now, the rappers have finally ended their three-year feud as M.I features on Iceberg’s remix of his ‘Ayanfe’ single.
The song also features Iyanya‘s protege, singer Emma Nyra.

Kim Kardashian’s baby is also due in July
Kim Kardashian’s baby is also due in July
I think until I really start seeing, like, a belly, it won’t really sink in. It’s just like a weird realization until you really start seeing the physical changes, um, and every day’s different.Kim Kardashian and her sister, Kourtney, appeared on Today yesterday morning. Host, Savannah Guthrie got the maternity questions out of the way right off the bat, saying to Kim, “We want to congratulate you on your pregnancy news.” And she asked if it’s sinking in. Kim said;
Guthrie asked if boyfriend Kanye West’s announcement of the baby was planned or did he just “blurt it out” when he told fans on stage at a concert? “No, he just kind of says what he feels,” said Kim. “Once you’re past the three-month mark, you’re pretty safe, so he just kind of goes off with what he feels and he was feeling it that night.”
As for when we can expect the bundle of joy to arrive, Kim replied: “I’m due in July.” (Duchess Kate of Cambridge is also due in July. Celebwatchers will be in overdrive this summer!) Kourtney pointed out that her baby, Penelope, was also born in July. “I told her, for me, being around anyone’s kids when I was pregnant is not good. Like, you need to wait till it’s your own.” ”Because you’re not going to feel the same,” explained Kourtney.
Kim said Kourtney’s life revolves around her kids “and I can’t really understand that until it happens to me.” Kim then shared an idea that Kourtney came up with. “You know what she said to me on the way over here? She said that in the old days — and maybe we should try this —” ”I did not say we should try this,” interrupted Kourtney. ”She said, ‘Like one sister should babysit all the kids so I can go and then whichever sister’s babysitting should just breastfeed all the kids.” Kourtney insisted, “I didn’t say let’s try this. But (Kim) did say, ‘Does that not freak you out?’ and I said, ‘No, it doesn’t.’ “ Said a stunned Savannah, “OK, well. Good luck with that and I’m sure it’ll all be filmed for part of a reality show!”
She moved on to chat about Kourtney & Kim Take Miami, which debuts Sunday on E! and Kim’s split from Kris Humphries. Savannah asked what’s going on with the divorce, which has been dragging out in court? ”It’s a process,” said Kim. “And, um, you know, it’s happening hopefully.”
Kim also said that she and Kanye “have talked” about marriage, but are “focusing on the baby.” She also said she’s “so content with how things are right now. And how life is and we’re so happy. We definitely want that in the future, but I’m not in a rush.”
Savannah also asked if the baby was a surprise?
“It was a happy …” Kim didn’t finish the sentence, but went on to say, “I think you’ll see in the show, (her sister) Khloe was always open about her fertility issues and I was always kind of quiet about mine and I have similar issues so it was a pleasant surprise when so many doctors were telling me one thing and the opposite happens.”
She adds, “I think it’s just such a blessing knowing my circumstances, which you’ll all find out about.”
