Kelis is alleging that Beyonce sampled one of her songs without informing her
reports, the reason is that a track on the LP, titled “Energy,” reportedly uses a sample from Kelis’ track “Get Along With You”, from her 1999 debut album.
In a series of comments to a post from an Instagram, Kelis insists that she had no idea her song was going to be sampled, and is offended that she wasn’t asked first.“My mind is blown too because the level of disrespect and utter ignorance of all 3 parties involved is astounding,” she wrote, referencing Beyoncé and the song’s other credited composers, Pharrell Williams and Chad .
“I heard about this the same way everyone else did. Nothing is ever as it seems, some of the people in this business have no soul or integrity and they have everyone fooled,” she added. Kelis continued in additional comments, responding to a fan claiming that “Beyoncé really admire [sic] Kelis” by writing, “Admire is not the word.”
When another comment described “Energy” as “a collab the world really needs,” Kelis fired back, “it’s not a collab it’s theft.”
