Solange-God Given Name

[Woodsworld85]

YEESSSS! I love the soulful and retro feel! We need another SOLO album!

[shedevil92]

Beyonce is alot of glitter, glamour, diva wigs, and sequins. Solange is more simple, hippy headbands, bright colors, music, and lyrics. No boustiers and ridiculously high, blinged out heels. just stylish simple music.

[sweetsyummm]

Love This Song One Of My Faves!

[htowngurl17]

my song love it

[TosElBashirTV]

this track is the truth

[loveme29able]

[ElBooGieBabii]

[damber04]

[iitzCECIbruhh]

Solange is AMAZING!

And she puts on a good show, the concert I went to from her

was one of my favorites. She sounds lovely live.

Love this woman!

[iatromeijn]

i think solange is lyrically better cause shes a songwritter and wrote almost half of the songs from beyonce...

[krya505]

@iatromeijn and you think beyonce has not written any music?

[iatromeijn]

@krya505 no thats not what i think

[bristay1]

I ,3 solange's music.It has sooo mch substance.That soul music.I can hear that hereditary harmony in the bck..bey did that alot I loove it..

[MusikJunkie1]

Omg i always thought solange knowles was such a bitch and when i heard this i ws going to be like yea just another b-rated beyonce, but i heard this and listened to the whole album and damm, i was so wrong, they really are two different completly diverse music artists, people need to stop comparing them, i was wrong to, her lyrics really tuched me ..shes amazing!! goo gurl !! <3 u!!

[LsNineteen903]

IM a guy 17 n i thinks she's very classy , she's good the way she carries herself , and very talented.

[Amzee1000]

[Natashadoingit]

great look / neo-soul sound, suits her.

[princessj355]

lovin the sound

[VeronicaAngel123]

Her songs are so meaningful and she's so unique and beautiful.

[4honeycherryblossom4]

Solange is becoming as addictive as any drug and I'm happy to say that I'm her pushaman; I got my friends hooked on her.

[dimedame1]

lmao @pushaman dat album is definitely crack!

[Molossian]

This is one awesome song. I've never heard of this artist. or even seen her video. I'm shocked because this song is awesome. Did her album go platinum? I will have to find out what album this is on.

[tyla90]

her album hasnt done as well as it should have.... not enuf promotion i think

[Napierbaby1]

i hatee that first picture of her with the gold make up...ughhh.

anyways i love this album. its effin sexy.

[neosoulsaved]

i love solange. when she first came out yrs ago i didnt see the talent but as of now shes my favorite one of my fav artist..i support her all the way.

[kimmie2704]

i love her she should get more play she just as good as sis

[kekebaby1994]

I love it!!! personally I think she is talkn about how she is just herself and wants to stop being compared to beyonce!!! the only thing they share is that they both sing and that there related other than that they are 2 very different ppl. sol is outspoken nd bey is quiet and reserved. I love the end of the song!!! " I promise I'm not high" she is funny!!!

[hikappree]

she would have been a superstar in the 70s

[ILIVEYADREAMS]

Personally im very impressed. Through all the crap not givin you credit you just went for yours and you got it.

[babychin65]

sorry but beyonce got it all talent beauty and figure

[nickanylaboo]

that don't mean Solange don't. that's what the whole song is about, she's just herself, not Beyonce.

[brooklynti]

Babychin65:

Listen to the lyrics!!!!!!!

[hiks54]

yea listen...im no SISTER im just my god given name...

[sassymamma3]

i totally agree wit her i mean just cuz two ppl come from the same house that mean they cant het they own credit?! come on ciciety get it together

[that1sexychick87]

Please support Solage and buy her album

[HotMamaThang]

This song is the truth. I love it.

[hourglassbyrejection]

Lover her. This is so real, she is her OWN WOMAN!! Who deserves her own credit, because she is going to make it on her own. GO'on Solange!! Loving ya, in the CHI!!

[HotMamaThang]

I love the song.

[HotMamaThang]

I love this. She wrote this so deep. She is real, and I love her.

[ladyk8686]

her hair looks so good in this pis..the yellow eye shadow is great and she sounds great here!

[yodaddylikeditpunk]

i actually like her betta than b musically

[18nmarried]

i love this song and i love the cd. i didnt expect it to be so good but u go girl, sry for doubting u

[leanna1982]

Came in thinking she'll be a poor man's version of Beyonce.. But her soulful songs and sultry voice clearly set her out on her own. As in the song lyrics, "I'm not her and never will be"

[honeydipkayla]

i luv it this my favorite song

[radiahw]

This is a beautiful song!

[honeydipkayla]

i luv this song

[Grudgeman]

welcome to...solange..and the hadley st Dreams

that part puts me in a Trance.

[kandy917]

i hate solange but i like this song

it caught my ear

[abynice90]

love she is so nice

[Daizy10231023]

lol..this song is just an intro,but its like the best song on her CD. love it.

[aburriga08]

is it me or is solange lyrically better than beyonce?

[originalwharris]

No, it's not just you. Her songs are far superior lyrically.

[HollyWoodJones1989]

@aburriga08 not its not you at all, that is a fact..

[vonte327]

@aburriga08 she is

[aljee20]

@aburriga08 its because she is a soul artist while beyonce is more pop R&B

[jaydeeforever1]

@aburriga08 she is

[jeanee1228]

@aburriga08 very much so. I like Beyonce, no doubt, but lyrically, Solange is far more dope.

[evahill38]

@jeanee1228 That's because Beyonce doesn't write her own music or doesn't have her own style. I love Solange i just found out recently that she wrote my favorite Kelly Rowland song Stole she's amazing i just wish i would've known i didn't buy her album until 2010 when i became a fan

[beautifulprincess92]

@aburriga08 the point of the song was for her not to be compared to Beyonce lol

[AmberMonet]

0MG i S0000 L0VE THiS S0NG

iM S000 STUCK 0N iT

[Jewelz9013]

I so love this song!! Solange really really made a big improvement from her first album!! I love her style on this album!! You go Solange!!

-Cee-

[tiandch1]

I love this i really like her music

[BlessMoon7]

yeah, Solange is digging into a persons brain and making them think & interact with the album.

[slimcola21]

This song is beautiful!You can't deny her lyrical talent and how she conveys a message:

"I'm not be-coming expectations I'm not her and never will, Bey Two girls going in different directions traveling towards the same galaxy. Let my star light shine on its on No I'm no sis-ter, I'm just my god given name."

Loves it!

[tevinmusiq]

That Solo Star album is junk compaired to her new album.

Her new album is a big upgrade.

[modest112]

beautiful....absolutely beautiful..

[tarugo04]

her lyrics is full of insecurities to her sister beyonce. tsk! pathetic little one!

[BLUTUBER99]

ugh no it's the exact opposite of it, she's talking about how everyone compare them all the time.

[MusicJunkies90]

tarugo you are an idiot!

[millerbeezie]

i lOVEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE­EE THIS SONG sooo much!

[ashlebabydoll]

soooooooooooooooooo true. love it aint nobody this real no more.

[TinKTinK132]

God Given Name

Get me Get me out of this box

I feel so claustrophobic in here

Leave your labels leave with no patience

Hear my voice and fill with your ears

I'm no soul girl equipped with no afro.

I'm just my god given name.

[TashaG16]

Great lyrics, right?

[coorie96]

luv it!!!!!!

[g35shawty]

I love this shit. It's melancholy, yet bold. I love it. The album is fiyah

[citizendrewski]

WTF? She is just singing over Thievery Corporation's "A Gentle Dissolve."

They didn't even bother to cut a sample from it, it's like the whole song!?

[mosaicmovement]

True...but this is still dope as shit...

[datchick67]

i got her album i was beastin to get it yaaaa

[BLUTUBER99]

good! they're selling it at target for like 6.98 im gonna get it too i love solange.

[JDiAmOnD300]

i lke the yellow on her...bt i lke it on her eyes not on lips

[Machelle3200]

Exactly only people who are artists themselves and know music know the difference between an artist and an entertainer.

[Yeaher007]

I love the edge in her voice...I wish her the best...it took Janet a minute but when she did break she didn't look back...

~M

[toreal06]

This song is raw.. I like her and I dont see any Beyonce in her. People will compare the two just because they are sisters the as Jessica and Ashley Simpson. I dont think they will be musically compared just because Solange is more Neo-Soul. Compared to Sucess they will when it shouldnt matter.

[Bcbgit101]

I agree 100%.

[thacomplex1]

Hopefully she'll be successful since she's reaching for more adult audience.

[BeautifulLIPS]

I love her first album songs but these new songs she has her stupid and dumb, it's blah

[winy1984]

Damn, I love that pic and this song!!

[1991to2007]

this song is fkn hot!

[msjericho]

lol ever since i heard this on the commercial i knew i would love it

[Pharrellsnumber1]

that was hot..

[TreKlub]

okay.......this damn girl is gonna get my money!!!!! lol

[ladikira86]

Solange is the shit! watch out R n B world a new queen is steppin through....

[mosaicmovement]

R n B??? No...this is the rebirth of neo-soul...She's getting her "amel larrieux" on!

[Seduction702]

yesssssssss my fave new, modern amel

[MRGETITRIGHT]

and im sorry if this planet that im livin on is pussy, cuz my lyrical ambitions sometimes dont seem to ring a bell.......... im sorry if my visual dont line up with my physical and my physical exhibit dont represent me well... Im sorry if im talkin shit but i mean well..... wow. and i promise im not high. lol !!!!!!!I LOVE YOU SOLO!!!!!

[SameOlJ08]

she's not saying pussy...shes saying *quizzical*. that wouldnt even make sense!

[EboneeLee]

shes fucking bomb

when i get put on imma fuck wit her musically i love it

[ShadWifey1227]

[therealestdude]

Beyonce is too they just have two different writing styles

[Sihsih2]

Her voice isn't that great!! at all, love the lyrics, but ...

[vcarr85]

dang i feel her in this song...its so deep but I think she will always be compared to Beyonce no matter what

[PitchBlackJelly]

True Art In it's purest form : From the heart! I love this album

I love this because the album is not sugared down in what people want to hear just raw emotions and pure FLOW~

[VoiceNme2shine]

What is up with her and her wardrobe and this eighties music.

[km816]

everybody got their own style.. and personally.. i think hers shines over 90% of the Losers in R&B Today.. and where do u hear 80s music...??? cuz i dont..

[ladyrt23]

Okay...I'm convinced. I'm loving her songs for sure. This song is deep, yet filled with all honesty.

[FutureGreatStar]

The message she is sending in this song is deep. Almost EVERYONE compares her to Beyonce and this is wrong because they are sisters and NOT the same artist.

[xxxsoulcandyxxx]

Solange is such a beautiful contrast to the usual RnB gals out there

[BabyG18]

I decided/Champagne chronic night cap now this..loving the sound of the album 4 real Solange is mad talented

[opal132]

I like this song different but in a good way

[drobin815]

genious her lyrics are amazing her voice is perfect for this style and stop comparing to beyonce both have there own styles if they werent sisters yall wud not even mention beyonces name leave her alone im feelin solange caz she's stepping up her game and given me something different and unlike some who give you music u have heard before she is following the beat of her own drum thats what true singer artists and performers do yes she is very inspired this time around and bringing her A game

[imsexyandcute123]

She lok jus lik beyonce but dis song dosnt get my attension mayb if beyonce sing it i probably wud listen 2 it

[proph8tic]

<----- doesn't understand why everyone is comparing. Bey is a r&b singer. Solange is straight neo/soul/funk. She's on her own level totally. LOVE the track. So how bout putting champagne chronic night cap and white picket fence on this one? :)

[babyboop8]

i completely agree about them having two different sounds...people just don't know when to quit hatin...

[noname1216]

I feel where she coming from...the first part at least is...cuz she like no sister just "my god given game" and she like im not b like dont expect big expectations...itz a good message She is her self hence just her god given name, she is an individual not beyonces little sister

[caramelchick06]

why she sound sound like Letoya!

[mjnettles]

This song is sssooo smooth. Job well done.

[realwitit87]

im lovin this track, i totally understand what she is trying to saying!!! NO IM NO SISTER... i love it!!! <3

[solegentleman]

this is a nice trak. I can actually hear Kelly Rowland singing this, Solange is talented, she is what you call an artist not necessary a vocalist, but she definitley can carry a tune

[ejaydahater1]

dhe can write good music

[VABoy10]

Vocally she isnt better Bee...but lyrically she got her!

[ginad86]

Co-sign

[icic5]

lol i promise i'm not high!!

[lashawnjack]

this song is hott...She definately is doing her own thang..I LOVE IT!

[dontgetshook]

Yo is this sampled from something if so pleaaaaaaaase let me know what it is ASAP!!

P.S. every1 needs to stop hating this song is deep!!

Thanks

[mek527]
