The Beyhive was not ok after Beyonce lost Album of the Year to Adele at the Grammy Awards this year, and her little sister Solange was pretty furious as well.
Solange may have just won her first Grammy, but that did not stop her from speaking from the heart about Beyonce’s lost.
Beyonce’s Lemonade album was arguably one of the most talked about albums over this past year. It broke records when it topped the Billboard 200 after its first week because that marked the sixth consecutive time that one of Beyonce’s solo albums debuted at No. 1. Lemonade featured a variety of genres, dealt with topics like infidelity and Black Lives Matter, and was praised by critics all around. With all that being said, it makes sense why so many were upset with the loss. Even Adele herself was shocked and said in her acceptance speech that “ It was so monumental and well thought-out and beautiful and soul-baring… we appreciate that.” Solange tweeted, “there have only been two black winners in the last 20 years for album of the year there have been over 200 black artist who have performed.” She then went on to tweet “create your own committees, build your own institutions, give your friends awards, award yourself, and be the gold you wanna hold my g’s” She also at one point tweeted “wuddup frank» with a link to a recent Frank Ocean post explaining his reason for not submitting his album for Grammy consideration. The tweets have since been deleted, but we definitely understand where Solange was coming from. Solange’s latest album, ‘A Seat at the Table’ was well received by critics and fans because of the way she unapologetically communicated her feelings about the black experience in America and connected with listeners through her music. Solange has never been afraid to speak her mind and tell us exactly how she feels and honestly…we hope she never stops.

All these white people saying «Let it go Solange» as it it was that easy, history has taught ya’ll nothing… Solange has the right to be upset I understand her, people who think Adele’s win was coincidental are kidding themselves…
sorry, but Adele’s album was just another Adele album, exactly like all the others…..Lemonade was brilliant, way better and yes i am white.
Also, like I know this isn’t gonna happen but when are we gonna get a Beyoncé and Adele collab. That would snatch all our wigs and the awards.
People win Grammys cause of talent, not skin colour peeps
