First!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!I cant believe im still up! des’ree wants a comeback why did she wait that long before she complained. Funny thing is she n bee are in the same label. Des’ree is in Sony UK while bee is here, i guess maybe dats y bee thought she wouldnt complain, either way i hope bee stays strong cuz she is gettin hit left to right.

WELL I ALREADY SAID HOW I FELT ABOUT THIS ON THE LAST POST. DES’REE TRYNNA MAKE A COMEBACK I SEE.

Desree’s song kissing you is one of my fave songs is so beautful, i think b did a good job on the song though i was so excited to here it desree should be flatterd I love B all my friends know it but desrees was better

She maybe was better I mean I haven’t heard it but she didn’t have to wait about telling her about the cover until it was impossible to stop. That was just a strategy and a very cheap one too. U know she should get the 150,000 I mean she needs them prolly. Beyonce has like thousand times that anyways lol

I didn’t tell my opinion about this on the other post, so here it is: Desree is stupid! Desree should be flattered (like you say Kelly J) somebody as big as Beyonce liked her song & used it in her album. If that chick wouldn’t have sued Beyonce I’d prolly be intrested in hearing the original (which I haven’t done yet). The only reason I even know now who Desree is is Beyonce, so she should really be grateful instead of sueing Bee!!!!!!!!!!!

I THINK DESREE NEEDS TO GET A FUCKEN LIFE WITH HER LOR UGLY ASSS..DAT WHENCE JUST MAD CAUSE BEYONCE BLEW HER BULL SHIT SONG OUT OF THE WATER AND GAVE LIFE TO IT…ALL SHE WANT IS ATTENTION AND MONEY…AND YOU KNOW THIS MAN!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
LMMFAO

FIRST:

IF BEYONCE DID GO OVER HER BOUNDS AND DO THE VIDEO AND SONG ILLEGALLY THEN THAT WASN’T RIGHT. WHETHER WE LIKE DES’REE, WHETHER SHE WAITED THIS LONG OR NOT OR MAYBE IT JUST TOOK THAT LONG FOR HER LAWSUIT TO GO THROUGH. CUZ IT TAKES A LOOOOONG TIME FOR THOSETHINGS TO ACTUALLY BE VERIFIED AND TO GO THRU AND WHATNOT. IF WE AREN’T MISSING ANY IMPORTANT FACTS AND BEYONCE REALLY DID STEAL THE SONG WITHOUT GETTING THE RIGHTS TO IT FIRST, THEN SHE WHAT SHE GETS.

BUT:

IF WE ARE STILL MISSING SOMETHING ON THIS THEN MY OPINION IS IT’S JUST ANOTHER SOMETHING FOR PPL TO TALK ABOUT AND HELP FOR DES’REE TO MAKE A COMEBACK.

LIKE I SAID:

BEYONCE HAS COVERED OTHER SONGS BEFORE, AND REGARDLESS OF WHETHER THEY’RE ON THE SAME LABEL, BUSINESS IS BUSINESS AND NOWHERE IN BEYONCE’S CAREER DID SHE EVER MAKE A MOVE CALCULATED ON WHO SHE IS OR WHAT LABEL SHE IS ON, SO THIS STORY REALLY DOESN’T MAKE SENSE..IT DOESN’T FOLLOW HER STRATEGY AT ALL. REGARDLESS OF THE OTHERSUITS CUZ THEY WERE FAKE ANYWAY. THIS ONE IN COMPARISON TO ALL THE OTHER SONGS SHE DID, DOESN’T FIT…AND BASED ON WHAT THE STORY (NOT ON THIS SITE BUT ANOTHER ONE)…SAID, BEYONCE ASKED FOR PERMISSION TO DO A VIDEO AND PUT IT ON THE RECORD….BBBBBUUUUUUUTTTTTTTT:

BEYONCE ALREADY EXPLAINED THAT DOING THIS VIDEO WAS JUST A LAST MINUTE THNG CUZ SHE WANTED ONE MORE SONG TO HAVE A VIDEO ON THE ALBUM. THAT IS WHY ITS JUST HER AND THE DIRECTOR, IT WASN’T PLANNED. SO ASKING AHEAD OF TIME TO DO AN UNPLANNED SPONTANEOUS VIDEO DOESN’T EVEN FOLLOW A PATTERN, AT ALL.

SO I WANT TO WAIT TO GET SOME TYPE OF STATEMENT FROM SOMEONE’S CAMP. CUZ WE STILL HAVEN’T GOTTEN ANY STATEMENTS OR NOTHING, JUST REAL GENERAL INFORMATION. THIS COULD BE SOMETHING PULLED FROM MEDIATAKEOUT FOR ALL WE KNOW!

AND WHETHER WE LIKE HER OR NOT OR WHETHER SHE IS JUST TRYING TO GET ATTENTION, CALLING ANY FEMALE OUT THERE NAME IS NOT COOL!! PLEASE DON’T GO OUT OF OWN SELVES JUST BECAUSE SOMEONE PISSES YOU OFF….IT HURTS YOU MORE THAN YOUR WORDS HURT THEM. BREAKS YOUR GOOD SPIRIT. IT’S NOT NECESSARY.

I meant:

“…please LET’S NOT GO OUT OF OWN SELVES AND PERSONALITIES just because someone pisses us off…….”

DESREE IS A FUCKING HOE! SHE IS FUCKING UGLY! BEYONCE DID A WAYYY BETTER JOB ON THE SONG THAN DESREE DID SHE SOUNDS LIKE A FUCKING MAN! FUCK! WHY THE FUCK IS EVERYONE PICKING ON BEYONCE THESE DAYS! MY GOD!

WELL LIKE I SAID, SHE IS USING THIS AS A COMEBACK METHOD. ALL PUBLICITY. AND WHO BETTER TO DO IT WITH THAN BEE? HUH?

Beyonce is #1 in Ireland for Beautiful Liar ….U.S. sucks she dropped down from number 3 no telling where shes at now

from my point of veiw if bee didnt give her credit then DESEREE should get the money.

seing thati believe in the law and want to play my hand in law.
when it comes to roaltys and the rights to songs, you have to ask for permission from the writers to use their songs.
deseree probaly just wants her credit and the money that she deserves from writing that song, no matter who sings it.
i feel she should get the money if bee violated the law and took that song without permission.

writers and singers are very sensitive when it comes to their shit.
i would be too.

Oh well I mean yeah its wrong but she sounded better then DESERRE i mean she sounded like a man oh well its done now!

BEE SINGZ IT BETTER.PERIOD…POINT…BLANK

it isnt about who sounded better
its about steling peoples songs without permission.
i think until ihear something more official imma let it go.

Okay if Beyonce took a song without permission, maybe she should pay something, but it doesnt sound like Beyonce to go & take ppls songs without permission, she knows what she is doing…but if it was in a hurry & she did a mistake I’m sure she’s gonna wanna pay for it!!

But if this aint even official, then it’s prolly just a rumor so like you said Saushe I’ma wait too..

LOOK YALL BUT WAIT..IF YOU LOOK AT THE BOOKLET THAT CAME WITH THE DELUXE EDITION LOOK AT THE CREDITS UNDER THE SONG.. IT STATES ..AND YOU CAN LOOK YALL SELVES IT STATES” WRITTEN BY BEYONCE kNOWLES,DESREE WEEKES &TIMOTHY ATACK” SO BEYONCE DID GIVE CREDIT WHERE IT WAS DO..

SO DESREE CAN REALLY DO THAT.. I MEAN BEYONCE SHOULD PAY SOME ROYALTYS(NOT THAT MUCH EITHER BUT SUM) BUT SHE CANT SO HERE CAUSE SHE LISTEN DESREE AS THE ORIGNAL PERSON WHO SANG IT…..

I MEAN DESREE CANT REALLY DO THAT

oh well if she gave credit thats all good.
but if she didnt confirm it like CLAY said, desree should definatly get the roayaltys.
thats my say on it.

Well, it’s not like des’ree didnt want b to sing the song. she did give her the permission to sing it but not to “change the title” and “make a video to it.” and b ignored it. i think it’s natual that now b has to pay for what she’s done. des’ree isn’t stupid.

by the way, why did she have to change the title? so it would sound more like her own song?

TO MAKE IT HER OWN

For me those 2 songs are completly diffrent, and my bother thinks so too…. so I don’t get what’s the deal … I respect Des’ree but I just don’t get the point….sorry…and bout covering u can cover something legally or illlegally…. but @ this point 4 me it’s not the same song….

that old bitch is trying to get spotlight

¬ ¬ just like dross

OK its wrong if BEE stole it but like i said oh well its done that ain’t gonna stop me from likin BEE so i don’t care like BEE changed words and to me it sounds like she added a few intruments and she gave the lady credit on the booklet and if BEE owes her money im sure she will pay its not even that much money she suin for so if the judge decide u owe her then im sure BEE will be fine with that!

AS MUCH AS I LOVE BEYONCE SHE NEVA HAD THE WRITE TO TAKE THAT SONG AND THEN 2 MAKE A VIDEO OUT OF IT WAS EVEN WORSE SO NOW SHE HAS 2 PAY THE CONSEQUENCES !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!SORRY BEYONCE:(:(:(:(

HEY DC FAN WHERE U BEEN??!!

Is that the original DC FAN or a new member? and WE DON’T KNOW IF BEYOCNE REALLY STOLE THE SONG…..FROM WHAT HER ALBUM SAYS SHE DID GIVE CREDIT WHERE CREDIT WAS DUE. WE DON’T KNOW IF IT’S TRUE THAT SHE IS BEING SUED WE JUST HERE RANDOM STATEMENTS FROM UNCONFIRMED “SOURCES” WHAT THE HELL IS THAT ABOUT?????? SO LET’S GET OFF EVERYONE’S DICK UNTIL WE KNO WHAT’S REALLY UP!

I heard about this the other day…

I love Bey, you all know that. But there’s one thing that people probably didn’t realize.

BEY ONLY GAVE CREDIT FOR “SAMPLING” THE SONG. SHE DIDN’T GIVE CREDIT FOR RE-MAKING IT.

So I can understand why Desiree is mad. It makes it look like it is an original song co-written by Beyonce. Re-writing some lyrics (and changing the title) doesn’t make it a completely new song, I’m sorry to say. There is probably a different (and lesser) amount paid to the writers if the song is sampled rather than re-making it. Most likely, Desiree is being cheated out of some $.

Who knows, though. Maybe Beyonce is not responsible for any of these decisions… it could very well be a very greedy record label trying to get the most $ they can. But fair is fair, and this is not.

Also… lawsuits don’t happen overnight. Desiree could’ve started this way before the album was released and she just didn’t have a lawyer, etc.

And… it isn’t necessarily Desiree suing Bey and company. It is the Royalty Network. So for all we know, Desiree may not even be involved with this. So don’t come up in this board calling her a hoe. Let’s keep it composed and mature, guys.

Lastly… in different countries, there are different execs and people in charge. So just because Bey is on Sony in the US and Desree is in the UK, it doesn’t mean anybody that they could get away with it. View them as seperate labels, because that’s what they are. Kelis is on Zomba Records here in the US, but she’s still on Virgin Records in the UK.

I’m still in love with Bey and her music, though. Hopefully the people involved can settle this in a mature and quiet manner.

I listened to the other song there different to me.

And BEE should pay 150,000 thats not alot for stealing a song I have seen

much higher sums.

she better pay before the BITCH GETS SMART ONLY 150,000 SHE IS SO STUPID!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!  !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

LETS JUST FORGET ABOUT IT. BEE IS A SMART WOMAN, SHE WILL HANDLE THIS.

Exactly Melissa, now I think you all should go and read what “shan” wrote cuz it’s hilarious! XD

OF COURSE ITS ME SHANTESE…..MELISSA 1 AVE BEEN SO BUSY WITH MY STUDIES DATS Y I HAVENT BEEN HERE LATELY BUT HOPEFULLY NOW ILL BE BAK:):):):):)………..I HOPE THAT WATEVA HAPPENS BETWEEN BEYONCE AND DESREE CAN BE SORTED OUT WITH NO PROBLEMS AND EVERY1 CAN SIMPLY MOVE ON WITH THEIR LIVES AFTER!!!!!!!!

i still haven’t seen any statements from either label……and regardless of how much money she has to pay its the principal thta she stole it IF AND I DO MEAN IF she stole it! o ok DC FAN. your the dancer right? the one that wanted to be a dancer……me u and SHUT UP HATERS talked about our dreams on the old board.

BEE SHUD FUCK HER UP LOL WRINKLY BITCH LOL

MA TICKETS FOR BEYONCE ARRIVED IN DA POST YESTERDAY FOR WEMBLEY LUVIN DAT 1

i mean i love b but re-making the song without the writer’s agreement doesn’t feel right to me whether it’s legal or not. i mean if i wrote the song and someone used the whole song with several changes and even a different title, WITHOUT my agreement, i would definitely feel insulted. it’s different than sampling the song or covering it. and those who are saying des’ree is stupid, show some respect to other artists. that makes b fans look so bad and blind.

WELL ITS GOOD TO HAVE U BACK DC FAN!!

GEN: that type of name calling makes ANY PERSON’S fans blind, not bad…first off.

and to add once again, we have not gotten word that this story is even true….WHY IS IT THAT A STORY THAT HAS TWO, THREE DIFFERENT BASIS FOR IT ON A FEW SITES IS BEING TAKEN SO SERIOUSLY BEFORE ANY OF US KNOW THE REAL DEAL. AND YES GEN YOU ARE RIGHT SAMPLING WITHOUT PERMISSION IS NOT COOL. BUT IT REALLY DOESN’T ADD UP. I MEAN, BEYOCNE HAS ALWAYS BEEN IN CONTROL OF HER MUSIC, SO COUNTERACT WHAT SOME OTHER GUY SAID REFERRING TO KELIS AND WHATNOT. BEYONCE HAS MORE CONTROL THAN THE AVERAGE ARTIST. AND KNOWS WHAT SONGS ARE WHAT AND FROM WHO. AND EVERY OTHER SONG HAS BEEN GIVEN PERMISSION AND TAKEN SERIOUSLY SO ALL OF SUDDEN BEYONCE DECIDES THAT SHE DOESN’T HAVE TIME TO TIE UP LOOSE ENDS AND NOT RISK THE PUBLICITY (CUZ IT’S NOT AOBUT THE MONEY, ITS THE PUBLICITY AROUND IT THATS SO BAD)? NAW, I REALLY NEED TO HEAR MORE. AND IT DOESN’T SEEM REALISTIC THAT THIS WOMAN IS REALLY SUING FOR 150000???????? I’M GOING TO MEDIATAKEOUT TO SEE IF IT’S UP THERE…IF IT IS, THIS WILL BE THE OFFICIAL LAST TIME I DISCUSS THIS CRAP….O WHO AM I KIDDING?

anyway… u dont have to capitalize all your words. it’s a little annoying. calm down.

I DNT KNO WHO DA FUCK DESREE IS BUT THAT BITCH SHOULD HAVE NOT COME ON WIT THEIS BULLSHIT IM SURE B DID HER SHITTY SONG BETTER THAN HER love yu b

Ok this story has been confirmed somewhat. B4 I go into my lil rant…I do remember Des’ree and this song from the movie I loved it then but I love it so much more now. Bein a artist myself it is very hard to sample ppl’s song because when it becomes a hit alot of times the original artist is upset and wants more money…Now for those that are sayin the two songs sound different, well that’s because they are. Beyonce used the chorus from Des’ree’s version of the song but most of the rest of the song was re-written which is why she retitled it. I read somewhere she wasnt supposed to but honestly I don’t really see how she could leave it Kissin You when she changed alot of the lyrics. As for the whole video thing yea they say she wasnt supposed to, honestly I dont see why not and now they are pulling the deluxe edition which is bs. I say give Des’ree the $150,000 for the mistakes made and move foward but don’t stop the movement I mean the song is a hit. Lmfaoo@all the ppl sayin Des’ree sounds like a man she does have a very deep voice and that picture is not the best one. She should be happy her name is even in the media again cause she did fall off. None the less the next person I see hatin on Beyonce over a small mistake it’s gon be some problems. Ppl always wanna take down the best and if you hate Beyonce so much stop loggin on the internet and searchin her, hell stop watchin TV go read a book. Beyonce is everywhere and will continue to be everywhere this is just a minor steppin stone and she’ll be right back on top crushin other female artist. She has done groundbreakin things no artist has and ppl will continue to hate cause they aint think of it first. Go Head Bee take care of this ya real fans have ya back mama.

…Bee once again i love her but lets be honest if you have heard des`rees version the original they sound just alike all except like 20 words lol but i still think she should be flatterd that someone like bee liked the song enough to do a remake but if bee didnt give her credit for the song then she should have known better but i do agree with Melissa 1 des`rees just tryen to get some money or come into the spotlight again but anyway we all know the outcome of this bee is a surviour
