I see you rolling your eyes. But trust me, this story shows the depths that Mathew Knowles will go to pull the wool over our eyes for his spoiled daughter, Beyonce. The acorn doesn’t roll far from the tree. You can see where Bey gets her dishonesty and evil spirit from:
Producer Rob Fusar, who has worked with the likes of Lady GaGa, Britney Spears and Will Smith, is furious that Beyonce took credit for composing “Bootylicious”.
Fusari tells Billboard magazine, “I came up with the idea to build a track using the guitar riff from Stevie Nicks’ Edge of Seventeen.
“I figured I’d put the guitar loop on there temporarily, and later go into the studio with a guitar and replay it, because I’d learned, after sampling Stevie Wonder’s I Wish for Will Smith’s Wild Wild West, that I didn’t want to lose 50 per cent of the publishing (royalties). I vividly remember telling Mathew Knowles, ‘Mathew, you got to book me into your studio and let me replay that riff.’
“He didn’t want to do it. So 50 percent got cut for one note. That whole experience was bittersweet for me.
“I remember watching Barbara Walters interview Beyonce about Bootylicious, and she told Barbara about how she came up with the idea for the track.”
Fusari, who went on to help Lady Gaga launch her pop career, insists he was brushed off when he complained about the interview, adding, “I called Mathew – which was a big mistake; I got emotional, and I apologised after – but I called Mathew and said, ‘Mathew, like, why?’ He explained to me, in a nice way, he said, ‘People don’t want to hear about Rob Fusari, producer from Livingston, N.J. No offence, but that’s not what sells records. What sells records is people believing that the artist is everything.’ And I’m like, ‘Yeah, I know, Mathew. I understand the game. But come on, I’m trying too. I’m a squirrel trying to get a nut, too.'” Read More…
Thanks to loyal reader Kalendria for the tip!
It should be common knowledge that BeyondFake and Dirty Mattress Knowles are crooks in the industry. Why people keep turning over their skills to these two cult leaders is beyond me.
damn! now i see why honest artists don’t make a dime. you gotta be a snake like matty to make hundreds of millions. that prepackaged b*** might be rich but she’s dishonest and nobody will be reminiscing to her songs 20-30 years from now.
Circus entertainers!!!!!!!!!!
@jewelry, neo said a lot of them need to get their foot in the door so they take it in the butt for a while to get their name out there. he said, once a writer or producer gets more power, they can demand more/full credit but they have to build up to that. he said a lot of them get shafted when they first enter the game.
LOL @ “I’m a squirrel trying to get a nut, too.”
Good morning!

Good Morning gouch and mkm. my graphics aren’t loading properly.
Matthew is full of it. I guess it’s good if an artist can write and/or produce, but I for one don’t care if they can or can’t. In the old days there were many well known writers and producers who created legions of hits and became famous for that alone. Now the industry is telling them they have to earn the right to get credit for their work and they are just paying their dues by allowing the artist (mostly B) to get credit for their work. I have nothing against her, but this thing gets on my nerves. She has enough money that she doesn’t need to rob people of careers for themselves. Either she needs to learn how to write and actually do it or tell Matthew she doesn’t want to steal anymore because I don’t hear this happening so much with other artists yet it happens with her over and over again on every album.
matthew is right about that image…it helps people sell records. it’s unethical, but the statement is true.
I am disappointed in BEY….:offtopic: Orka killed somebody. I’d rather see a post about that.
@ free
That’s true…but what BeyondFake does is beyond criminal. She did not make any money off of that track anyway because Stevie Nix was not about to hand over rights to the guitar riff (and Stevie let her know this right off the bat). So this is the only song that I know (besides If I Were A Boy) that BeyondFake is not pulling in hardly any royalties from. If you notice, once she had to give BC Jean (thanks to Perez Hilton) writing credits for If I Were A Boy, she barely performs that song because she has to pay out of the wazoo whenever she performs it.
GG you almost hurt the 1 feeling i had left yesterday cause i thought you were ignoring me! I almost got butthurt!
Correct me if i’m wrong, but wasn’t bootylicious released in 2001? The year is now 2010. I see the economy has gotten to you also huh, Rob Fusari. Now lets see if Falonte Moore is gonna come out of the wood works for his cut as well.
Heeeyy GG, Gypsyeyes, Brownsuga, LJ, Outside, QuettaV !! Hope y’all behave today.
I didn’t get too much work done yesterday and it’s piling up.
Good Morning GGouch…. WOW I am soooo excited to know I made your favorite list… Extra cutting up for me today!
Morning Brown..!!!!!!
Sandra, the home page is loading funny. Like I can’t see the blog roll on the right, just the posts. Is it just my computer or is anybody else having problems too

I always figured that story she came up with about “sitting on a plane and listening to whatever song” was just full of it. I hate to see talented ppl get screwed in the name of the almighty dollar. Yes it’s the name of the game, but at some point you gotta change it.
Ms.Kaylamomma Goooooooooooooo ole Morning to you hun-nay…!!! get that work off the desk today
BIRD!!! *LICKS SCREEN* TELL YOUR BROTHER THAT’S WHAT I DO TO HIM ERRRRR NIGHT IN MY DREAMS!
@ ggouch
One way to get me completely worked up is to mention that Dirty Duo >:(

It’s bad enough that this happens at all, but this guy is not even a newbie. He worked on Wild Wild West and that came out years ago. If he has already worked with Will Smith he shouldn’t be getting robbed by Matthew and Beyonce. I hope he sues if he hasn’t already.

He may not have been a newbie–but after all the stories over the years about M. Knowles, i wouldn’t be surprised what he could do. And DC was the hottest group out then, so he probably was willing to do anything to get his name on a track of theirs just to get his name out there.
***all of my nutty ways finally landed me on ggouch fav list***
woo-hoo!!!!!
so dude chose to take the backseat…the horrible part is how they came up w/ the story about how beyonce thought of the track…why not just be silent about it, don’t lie and rub it in somebodies face.
Scandolouys THANK U for comment #14 yesterday
Morning fam
I got nothing else
I don’t need to see your cabbage patch ma’am, I have one of my own
@bigtyme
I agree wholeheartedly. That story was dumb–and it would have been better to just be quiet. I know this world is filled with ghostwriters. Everyone does it (authors, designers), but at least those ppl get paid.
What else is new? Bey and her crew have been jackin songs for years. Every year it’s somebody new..SMH. It’s actually pitiful b/c although I’m a fan, it just goes to show how unoriginal she is. She’s pretty so she gets a pass in America.
@GG my gfriend is having a party like u want to have for her 35th b day next weekend. I can’t wait
let me know when u have yours 
did dude just see a rerun of the 20/20 episode on WeTv? or are the quotes from years ago. that CD came out a looong time ago.
scandalous-you are now famous for drive-by’s. you are in and out like nobody’s business. but you did make for good convo yesterday. Thanks.
@ Daisy
girrrrrl, i went back and read comment #14 this morning and fell out all over again!
@ scandalous1
you will get.
if you get started today, i’m putting you on MUTE. this is the only
Another thing: why didn’t Snoop get a cut? He came up with this word on the Dre Day track yet BeyondFake gets credit for this word…
“Bootylicious” was a stupid song anyway, and how old is that song? Why is he still crying about this?
Brownsuga, what happened to your pic?
@MKM-stay out of my head. I was wondering the same thing about Brown’s picture.
@ daisy, gypseyeyes, and speakinmymind…
I promise to be on best behavior today. You know how sometimes you just can’t let things past you by without saying something. I had that moment. I’m glad it made
ya’lls day though.
Beyonce need to sat it down for a while… Get some rest come back out in 2-3 years and retire after that.. Is it me or does she look just as old as her mommie dearest????
this is old news…..we already know how the knowles camp gets down…
just like she said she came up with the term “bootylicious” and they had to play a verse from snoop in the 90’s where he obviously said it first….SMH.

Daisy, my party is March 13th. @ 4pm. I am cooking. Though, I think my menu will change from greens and fish to a pan of baked Zittie (spe). I am having the party early because most of my friends are married and or involved, we wanted to leave enough time for the ladies to go home sexually charged and ready to use their new found power for GOOD. I am also giving my guest African Belly Chains. Which I can’t wait
@ GGouch… yall leave that African stuff alone.. Have these woman going home and committing sexually battery on their men.
I am so sorry everyone. I didn’t mean to cause an uproar amongst the members…Lmao
lol! Is she swagger jacking Nicki Minaj? LOL
JUDGING BY THE ARTICLE I JUST READ-IT SEEMS TO ME HE’S FURIOUS WITH HER DAD
BUT I DIGRESS
Okay, now I see it Brownsuga. It was the crying baby at first.

I HATE SNOW!!!!!!!!!!! 
Why is she making that “minstrel show” face? I hate that shot of her!
On Topic, we all know BeyNappy and Joe Jackson of the new day and age, are thieves. If it ain’t one thing it’s another, but unfortunately, they get away with it, somehow. The only thing that she ain’t stole is those rough a** lacefronts and buttpads that she wears, and that damn pet camel of hers.
@GG marking my calendar right now March 13th got it
@Krysi AM is still trying to blast SR mbrs on her blog site

Good morning everyone!!
@MKM my graphics are uploading slowly also.
Good morning ladies (and gents)!
Maybe it’s just me, but damn, if I am getting paid for it, who cares…. I would rather be rich then famous.. Big difference. If he was smart, instead of trying to get credit for a song, he should have gotten more money.. Period…. It’s all about the money to me… I could care less about my name being out there…
“Thanks to loyal reader Kalendria for the tip.”

@mkm, i tried the refresh option and it worked for me. thanks.
Matthew is a snake. Beyonce is a puppet. They both epitomize exploitation, over-saturation, and corruption.
Khandi25, that’s the dumbest thing I’ve ever heard. I’m not calling you dumb, just you’re statement. I’ll give you the benefit of the doubt given that you probably don’t know the music business.
Selling your rights/credits to any song is suicide. It gives the new “owner” manipulative power and ability to make money while you get a one time payment of chump change. By not having your name on a song you created, you lose out on royalties(publishing), which add up each time your song is played on the radio, TV, when the song is sampled, performed etc etc. You’d never have to work a day in your life when owning your own publishing.
“SASHAY SHAUNTAY”
———————————————
ok…ok
I’mma remember dat shyt outta all yall…*points at BROWN, VI, GYPS* writing it down, and taking a picture as we speak! 
This is not news in the entertainment industry. Happens all the time
and what’s so funny about reading his piece is that Beyonce used to say the same thing. she’s a huge fan of stevie nicks and loved that riff and knew she had to do something to it.
@ pointhimout
If BeyondFake was such a huge fan of Stevie Nix, then why did she try to pry that guitar riff away from Stevie for a paltry sum. Stevie flat out had to tell her that she was not interested in selling that riff because it has been sampled again and again and has made Stevie independently wealthy. So at any rate, Stevie pretty much owns Bootylicious and BeyondFake collects her paltry pennies. If you notice, the two songs that she does not get bank from (Bootylicious and If I Were A Boy) she barely performs because she is a stingy, under handed, butt pad depends wearing, dry wig having heifer!
Hell they don’t even give Solange writing credit for half of DC’s hits, this is to be expected, why don’t people just stop working with her?
He apologized, so he’s a PUNK!!!
So what’s he trying to say now and WHY SHOULD WE CARE???
Too late, PUNK!!!!
NEXT….
