Solange recently performed her hit single “I Decided” live at the Stone Soul Picnic 2008. She sounded great! The sign of a great performer is one who doesn’t allow distractions to throw them off rhythm. When an excited fan joined Solange on stage, Solange never missed a beat. She seamlessly involved him in her show by shooing away the overanxious security guards.
God forbid if it had been Beyonce. That poor man would have been T-boned by six burly security guards – each fighting over a piece of him. Beyonce would have refused to continue until even his hat was removed from the stage. How dare he – a mere fan – trying to dance with her highness Beyonce? That $100 concert ticket doesn’t entitle fans to breathe the same air she breathes!
This is what the industry needs right now: a young artist who boldly turns her back on the path her sister took to success. A young lady who blazes her own trail to show the younger girls that you don’t have to sell sex to make good music.
