PICS: Solange performing live
Solange performed a lively session at the J&R MusicFest at City Hall Park in NY yesterday. Her sister Beyonce attended the concert along with mama Tina Knowles who beamed proudly from the audience.
Solange’s first musical effort fell flat. But that’s only because she was following in the footsteps of her sister which was the wrong move career-wise. But it’s all good now! Solange has come into her own and she isn’t looking back!
I was just discussing Solange with an industry professional who took great pleasure in informing me that according to some industry scan service, Solange’s hit single “I Decided” has only received 9 spins around the world today. Now I can hardly believe that only 9 radio stations in the entire world has played that song today. Compare that to 270 spins by Jazmine Sullivan who has the #1 single in the world.
By the way, I think it can be said that Beyonce’s career is officially over now that real musicians have suddenly become popular again. Don’t you agree?

woah michelle no lookie so good. yikes.
anyWayz…i think this is Solange’s time. glad she didn’t give up after the 1st flop. she’s different and got some edge. must not always be easy with a fantastic super star older sis, okay! Bey looks great and deliciously hollywood per usual.
Here goes, Sandra trying to start some mess! We don’t believe you..you need more people! Beyonce’s career over? Yeah right!
Maybe she’s a bit extra..a little over-exposed, and sometimes TOO over-the-top. But she’s rich b!@#$ AND she really can sing even without all the theatrics. You only jock Solange b/c you hate Bey so much and me thinks that’s just sad.
can solange go ahead and start getting the lace fronts? the glue and the stitching in technique does not look good on her?
Solange is just following what everybody else been doing from the past year or two and it works because everybody is on that bandwagon.I rather prefer listening to my real underground artist who been on this before.Solange is just lucky because she has the perks of being Beyonce’ sister.If she was to do it on her own we wouldn’t even care.
No I do not agree that Beyonce career is over.
& is there any live audio to this show? I want to hear this girl sing live.
Can someone tell me what Jasmine sings? I don’t follow videos much.
& I love how Beyonce is blamed for everybody around her not being able to have sucessful careers. How is it her fault that Solo first attempt was lackluster?

NOPE…Sandy, you are a mean, mean woman.lol
I like Bey
Beyonce is loving that bag ain’t she! lol She been holding it (like it has the cooties) for the past 3 photos I’ve seen her in.
#5 she sings I Need You Bad (she has raspy vocals, like Lauren Hill)

I can believe it. The song sucks!
They should have put that joint on the DreamGirls soundtrack! It could have been some of that garbage music Beyonce sung once she dropped the Dreamettes and went solo.
If Solange is going to stoop down and sh*t during her performances, why doesn’t she wear a more appropriate outfit? I can’t stand women who don’t know how to act in a dress or skirt!
Are you serious? Bey is a legend and she will be around for years to come just like Areatha Franklin and Dianna Ross. In 20 yrs new artist will still be singing the praises of THE GREAT BEYONCE KNOWLES! dont hate!
Sandra STOP! You are a mess….LOL!!
Beyonce’s career will never fall flat. I’ll have to disagree with you Sandra. I do like Solange’s album though, it took me a few times to start liking ” I Decided”.
I LOVE ME SOME SOLANGE
Sandra the comment you made about how Bey carries her bag makes me think girlfriend is trying to hide something. I know rumors about her being preggers have been going around but that is an odd way to carry a bag and if you look at most of the photos its always covering her mid section.
Remember this when it finally comes out.
*eating lunch*
reading the comments .. since I don’t care for Her or her sister …
Beyonce just needs to re-invent her style and give up her whack ass costume get ups when she performs and crazy trans-like hoochie dances
As far as singing talent..she got it though!
Thank you mssuva for the info.
Lol @ thinking the girl is preg just because she has her bag in front of her. I look @ that & think she protecting it from being snatched. Looks like a lot of ppl were surrounding her.
How many spins does Michelle get Sandra? Can’t wait to see how many albums solonge has to sell before the media turns on her.
michelle is so damn fugly…i luv solange and my girl be-yon-ce…toward is also performing?! wow! they need to give me a damn recording contract…they passing those $hits out like government cheese during the ronald reagan era…
I’m loving Serena’s and Solange’s hair.
THEY HAVE REALLY STEPPED UP THEIR HAIR GAME. LOL
KEEP IT UP LADIES.
Being on blogs everyday doesn’t mean you’re going to sell units. Solange needs a hit on radio. Not cameo appearances from Jayonce at her free concerts.
Can someone please explain to me why it’s a crime for Beyonce to carry the same bag more than once?? Hell, most of us carry the same bag EVERYDAY unless we’re going out. I mean is it just me or are we trying a little too hard to hate here? Just becuase you have it, doesn’t mean you have to spend it.
I have never ever ever ever ever liked BEYONCe even when she was in destinys child with her dramatic singing that doesnt fluctuate at all, she is a monotone studio singer who is famous because of her looks and not her “talent”
Im so excited, solange, brandy, monica all the real singers are coming back
THANK GOD!
Sorry Sandra, but i can believe Solange isn’t getting alot of play…i asked this question before, WHERE IS HER MARKET? Who is her target audience, cause i just can’t see a bunch of teenagers running to the video store to buy this music from her, and i myself isn’t feeling this 60’s stuff…sorry, but she may be able to hold a tune, but i think her quest to be different, she OUT-MARKETED herself, trying to be so different…can you say backfired…
Now Jasmine Sullivan is the real deal singing music we can all relate to…and oh goodness, don’t get me started on her voice, it’s so melodic and soulful…i can’t wait for her cd…her cd is relateable to our time and era unlike solange…wtf for real with her?
And Beyonce’s career is not over, as much as i can careless about her dumbed-down music…it’s for teenagers, and there’s plenty of teens out there to buy that lollipop none sense, complete with all the loud whistles, hornes, etc…her music is just a bunch of loud noise with a woman in the background yelling….i must admit i liked a few singles on her first solo project, but this last one, it can go straight to the garbage.
Sandra I think you are a secret fan. I bet Beyonce is playing in your IPOD as we speak. I bet you have a tattoo of Beyonce on your ass! Stop being so contrary! I also think you say some things just to get a rise out of us….kepp up the good work EVILINA!
I purchase Solange first CD and please forgive me but there was only one song on that CD that I liked and I tried to listen the the CD over and over but I just couldnt get into it. I love her style and her and Beyonce is totally different but I just wish her new CD is better then the first one. Her first CD she have a song with her and Bow Wow and I just wasnt feeling it. Best wishes for her second CD and I may just go buy her 2nd CD just to support her she seems like she is Hella cool as a person Beyonce seems to be a little stuck up but maybe Jay Z made her start acting like that.
I can’t stand Beyonce, but as much as I would LOVE it, her annoying ass ain’t goin away just yet. Sighhh…and Solange would just be some girl in a sea of nameless faceless star-wannabees without Beyonce and her daddy. Keep it real.
Oh, and I don’t think Bey is hiding anything with her bag in that pic. She usually carries it up at her shoulder and side with her wrist pulled back like it’s broke.
Really feeling the younger Miss Knowles…I like “I Decided” as well as “T.O.N.Y.” and the other joint “Champagnechroniknightcap.”
now that’s sexy!!!
