You know what’s cornier than hip-hop beef? R&B beef. I don’t think there’s anything cornier than when singers are beefing about something dumb like who has the better love song or who has the better falsetto. Some say women are catty but I’ll have you know that almost every case of R&B “beef” over the last few years have been between men. Take a look…

    Brian McKnight needs to stop feuding with stank garbage artists like Piss Brown. And his mother Joyce Hawkins is just as dumb and ignorant as her son.

  • Lady85

    all of these are like “battles of the softies” they need to quit this silly mess and figure out how to make R&B sound like R&B and not Techno knock offs

    • psylocke_2001

      AMEN! Ugh! I’m so sick of this techno/dance nonsense. It’s getting out of hand!

    what about beyonce and keri hilson?

  • AfricanBambi

    Geez what was all that shade towards miguel tho from the author? I didn’t think it was that serious…Miguel is great right now and i feel he has a future in this r&b game.

  • disqus_WfmNqv9gsC

    Chris and McKnight? that was not a beef, that was a slice of lunch meat.

    Miguel was referring to Lloyd

  • cantbtrue

    Gay Songz dissed r. Kelly? Really? I missed that 1. R. Kelly would destroy that kid(physically or musically). Ever since Chris brown bounced back, he shut that b/s Trey was dropping down. So what does he think kellz would do?? Lol.

  • breezy

    Brian mck use to be dope back in the early to mid 90s. But he did beat his wife when he was married, and the police were called out, cant remeber if he went to jail. He mustve forgotten

  • A. Cole

    Okay, with the R. Kelly “beef”. Call it disrespect if you want, but Trey Songz said what a lot of folks said in private. He wasn’t tryna start nothin. I had actually heard him say, more times than necessary, prior to the mixtape track how much he loved R. Kelly and his style and his music etc. If you listen to the track without the “who does Trey Songz think he is” thought in your mind, you’d agree too!
    I think the public tends to feed these beefs with the additional commentary. Fans do the back and forth and each side feels validated in keeping it going.

    • will

      I guess i missed all those folks who were saying it in private.
      U sound like a bjg gay songz fan, but he will never be on kellz level. That dude wrote hits 4 Michael Jackson. It dont matter how many times he acknowledged kellz, to make a song dissing him, out of all pll, but then he gets made when neyo did it 2 him.

  • WhoMe

    A bunch of lames. Stop fighting over twitter.

  • Elle

    Ugh I really wish Twitter would just die. It’s like a bunch of Jr. high schoolers trying to be cool and start drama and it makes people look even dumber than they already are. especially celebs!

  • Janes Way

    Neyo girl I’m gonna need you to stop trash talking others in R&B be it Trey, Breez,y or Usher than running and hiding after folks call you out! Trey boo boo, R.Kelly is the King of R&B (not Frank Ocean as the whites and gays insist). Wait, Migual has a lane O_o? Boo boo I’m gonna need to have several seats. He was speakng to YMCMB’s Lloyd by the way. The Dream and WHO? Wait, Lyfe and Raheem? Where in the world was I when that went down? Poor, unfortunate Brian McNOT! You are too old at 43 to be beefing with 23-yr-old Chris Brown especially after you beat your wife some year back! Leave that kid alone and stop trying to instruct women on how their body parts work. We got it covered Bria…LOL :-)

  • Jeyne Doe

    Miguel may be feeling himself, but he is it right now as far as R&B. Didn’t quite get the clarity of the author’s opinion, but surely she didn’t say the Dream has a better voice than Miguel…

    • Janes Way

      No Miguel was jawing at Lloyd. Apparently Lloyd felt that Miguel had stolen his style as they both carved roses in their heads at some point! It was silly to me but whatever. The Dream said something about the Weekend 0_O who is Drakes artist. Remember Lil Wayne and the Dream dislike each other. Drake has been accused of coping Big Sean’s style and the Dream decided to go after Drakes artist. At least this is how I see it!

  • Amanda

    Chris Brown is looking great in that suit. I have been disapointed in Brain McKnight since the “P***y Work” and “Joys of Anal Sex” songs! His comments about Chris & others were laughable considering Brian McKight beat his wife in th 90s. I guess he forgot we all knew that!

  • http://twitter.com/MadameGigglez Bubblez

    LMAO @ the Hamburgler statement!!!! Whoo… that boy is a character.

  • redfingerpaint

    I’m about to have a beef with C-Breezy’s mom for saying, “Michael Jackson died so Chris Brown could live”. People keep pulling comments out of their wazoo! She said she meant to say that Chris is inspired by MJ, but that just left a bad taste in my mouth.

    • Janes Way

      Stop it! That comment is 20 years old GTFOI at this point. Chris and his mom both adored Michael Jackson. I’m tired of ppl looking to say horrible things abtt that kid and his mom. They have suvived enough in their lives!

      • redfingerpaint

        Don’t get me wrong, I think CB is an EXTREMELY talented person! He sings, dances, and acts — and he does all three VERY well!!! However, it gets harder and harder to defend CB (and his mother) with their controversial comments. Look how many times that boy has Tweeted something and then took it down! (Drake fight, Grammy win, Miranda Lambert, etc.) He’s does things that makes me question his character – or lack thereof.

        • Janes Way

          Wait now! Chris’ mother had ever right to say she wished the entire story was told not just the continued 4 year one-sided tale of woo we hear whenever a certain person has a CD, single, movie or product to sell!
          A chunk of Chris Brown’s chin was missing. NBA’s Tony Parker’s eye was ijuried, CBs gf Kea suffered a concussion & missed her lil brothers graduation b/c she could fly out of NY, CBs bodyguard “Big Pat’s” head was split wide open & tons of other victims were injuried b/c drunk Drake wanted to start some bull!
          RACIST Miranda Lambert attacked CB on twitter for no other reason than to promote her song! This attention SLORE was the same person at the Grammy’s cheering the loudest for SERAL WIFE BEATER Glen Campbell who was tributed by her no good cheating husband blake & wife beater Alan Jackson. The racist dog seemed to have no problem cheering for the man that knocked out Tanya Tuckers 2 front teeth but wanted to jaw at CB about his 1 teenge fight from 3 years past. I would have dug in her hypocritical a** if were him! Remember Chris was being attacked after his Grammy win so he snapped back. Now these are the same ppl who never said a word about SERIAL WIFE BEATERS: Eminem (beat wife Kim), Alan Jackson (beat wife Denise), Rodney Atkins (beat wife Tammy 2011,) or Ozzy Obourne (beat wife Sharon) when they won their Grammys!

          • redfingerpaint

            If Chris’ mother wants the truth to be told, then dammit, why won’t she tell the story because she OBVIOUSLY was in the car with them!

            My point is it seems as if Chris Brown can’t seem to put his big boy boxers on. He sends out Tweets and then removes it because he knows he shouldn’t have said. He will NEVER reach his full potential because he can’t seem to keep his mouth shut!

            (Side note: Karrueche said herself, via Twitter, that she wasn’t ever injured.)

          • realadulttalk

            Stories are only one-sided when the other side is not (or can not) defend themselves. Deflection does not make the story two-sided though–it simply makes the accused seem that much more guilty. Let’s not deflect–let’s discuss. Chris has anger management issues–that’s been shown more than once since his incident with Rihanna. Chris and his mouth are his own worst enemies–maybe one day his mother will grow up and realize that so she can let her son know.
