Aight, so if you read Sound-Savvy on a regular, you'll know that I DO like Beyonce, I'm just not her biggest fan, but I treat her no differently than everyone else - when she's right I give her props, when she's wrong, I say what I feel. In this case, Beyonce is VERY RIGHT... A lot of people are giving her flack saying she's overzealous and "thirsty" for wanting so badly to perform at the inauguration... so what?? If you were currently the biggest name in music (not really up for debate) and had this opportunity, the opportunity of a lifetime, can you honestly say you wouldn't jump at the chance? My parents always taught me "If you want something, go get it" So I don't see anything wrong with it, especially since she delivered such an amazing and stirring performance of At Last. I don't think there was a dry eye in the country watching this; it literally gave me chills. So while I may not agree with all of Beyonce's statements, my hat goes off to her for this one, it was a privilege well-deserved and an honor best bestowed.
