Stop The Beef!


"It is wonderful how much time good people spend fighting the devil. If they would only expend the same amount of energy loving their fellow men, the devil would die in his own tracks of ennui." 
                                                                                                     -Helen Keller

Today, I was reading an article of how singers Ciara and Rihanna are throwing shots at each other. Ciara claims that she does not have beef with anybody; however she is not to be disrespected either. Ciara continues to say that she wishes Rihanna well and does not know what her problem is and that she (Rihanna) is nuts right now.

Someone posted that part of Ciara's interview on Instagram and told Rihanna about it. Under the photo Rihanna stated:

"How u gon hate from outside???"

"Thanks for the free promeaux sis!!"

"When will they start asking her questions about HER?"

Ciara then posted on Twitter the following:

"I am baffled. The obsession really makes no sense. This is getting out of hand..."

"Somebody please point her in the right direction, cuz she clearly needs love and affection...:)"

Nobody really knows what they are "beefing" about but them. If you ask me, it seems like Rihanna likes to beef with everybody. Every time I turn around, she has a problem with someone. I think she just needs to focus on herself and her career. Don't get me wrong, I love her as an artist; however, she needs to get it together. There is an old saying that I heard when I was a child that said "When you're not at peace with yourself, it's hard to have peace with others." I think this statement describes Rihanna.

I'm not saying that Ciara is just the victim because I honestly don't know who started it; but when have you seen ciara all over blogs and social media sites beefin with people other than Rihanna.........think about it. As women, we need to stick together and show much LOVE and appreciation. With shows such as "Bad Girls Club", "Basketball Wives" and other reality shows showing women fighting each other, we need to show the media and everyone else positivity. Women are not always fighting and hating each other.......we MUST show it.

I've said this during an interview with Mike El Beta and Luno on The Last Slice Radio (Aired 4/13/13), the music industry is in so much competition. Artists need to start supporting each other as they are all trying to reach the same goal......to be at the top. They are so involved with each others lives, they forgot that there are younger fans out there who look up to them and want to be them. They see all the negativity and imitate what they see. That's not what music is about.

I really hope that these women can get over their differences and find peace. Plus, Ciara's boyfriend Future is featured in a song with Rihanna......I bet he feels a little awkward. The beef must stop!
