“She wants to be me so bad” – Firstpost

American TV presenter Amber Rose is furious with singing sensation Beyonce, accusing the star of copying her speech at a Kamala Harris rally.

“He wants to be me so bad. It literally took me the entire speech,” wrote the media star.

“I’m not here as a star, I’m not here as a politician. “I’m here as a mother” Beyonce – he said during an election rally Kamala Harris.

“A mother who cares deeply about the world in which my children and all our children live, a world in which we have the freedom to control our bodies, a world in which we are not divided,” she said Friday evening in Houston.

“Imagine our daughters growing up and seeing what is possible without ceilings and limitations,” she continued. “We need to vote and we need you.”

Finally, Beyoncé, joined on stage by her Destiny’s Child bandmate Kelly Rowland, introduced Harris. “Ladies and gentlemen, please warmly and loudly welcome the next president of the United States, Vice President Kamala Harris, to Texas,” she said.

It did not occur – unlike in 2016. when she performed at Hillary Clinton’s campaign rally in Cleveland.

Houston is Beyoncé’s hometown, and Harris’ presidential campaign used Beyoncé’s 2016 song “Freedom,” an excerpt from her 2016’s breakthrough album “Lemonade” as his anthem.

Harris first time he used this song in July during her first official public appearance as a presidential candidate at her campaign headquarters in Delaware. That same month, Beyoncé’s mother, Tina Knowles, publicly endorsed Harris for president.

Beyoncé gave Harris permission to use the song, a campaign official who was granted anonymity to discuss private campaign activities confirmed to The Associated Press.

In the second half of “Lemonade,” “Freedom” samples two field recordings by John and Alan Lomax that document the folk spirituality of Jim Crow-era Southern Black churches and the work songs of Black prisoners from 1959 and 1948. It also includes Pulitzer Prize winner Kendrick Lamar.

Kinitra D. Brooks, scientist and author of “The Lemonade Reader,” says the song “Freedom” is so important because it shows that freedom isn’t free. Freedom to be yourself, political freedom… is the idea that you have to fight for freedom and that you can win it.”
