Kelis launches into Beyoncé over “Renaissance” sample: “Stupid and disrespectful”
The account was highlighting one of the new songs, “Energy,” which samples the Neptunes-produced song “Get Along With You,” from Kelis’ debut 1999 album., Kelis took to the comments section. “My mind is blown too because the level of disrespect and utter ignorance of all 3 parties involved is astounding,” she wrote.
“You don’t have to like it or agree. Facts are facts. If you’re a sheep keep it movin’ this convo will be over your head. I didn’t ask for this, but I’m not afraid of it either.”“The reality is that my real beef is not only with Beyoncé because at the end of the day she’s sampled a record, she’s copied me before.. it’s fine.
She again takes aim at Beyoncé and Pharrell for “a lot of hypocrisy and a lot of nonsense,” citing a previous interview in which Pharrell talked about artists’ rights and recognition.
