Give me a break. She doesnt owe Beyonce shit in my opinion. At least not in the sense that it makes a statement about her "class" that she didnt thank her.

I liked alot of the stuff Jon Brion contributed. "Gone", "We Major" and "Roses" are 3 of my favorite tracks off the record, and they all had Brion playing on them I believe.

Do yall think Rites is better than his work after, or are we just talking about "Whatever" in particular?

Side note: Bitchslap!, Lookin At Me Sideways & Listen Up I think all have that raw "Whatever" vibe to them...I suspect there will be some of that on the new record too.

Rap does not need any more female voices. The ones that have arisen already have taught us a few things 1) The very best female emcees of all time are not in any rational person's top 200 list. 2) At the end of the day, the most remarkable and fondly remembered female rappers are sex kitten gimmick...
