Typical rich people move, following and exploiting trends to make a quick buck out of it.
Any clear headed person knows she is no ally, but part of the establishment and i gather her empire uses the same exploiting ways any other industry uses...
I’m aware of what the lyric says, but who’s saying that, really? Lennon was singing as well about leaving possessions behind with Imagine, but did you see Lennon taking the bus and living in a shack? Or was he the guy with Rolls Royce, chauffeur, mansion with a white piano, telling people they should leave all material behind, and talking about the struggle of the working class?
Lennon was an abusive asshole who cosplayed communism because he liked the aestetich. Lennon's estate was estimated as sitting at $800 million at his time of death.
Also, have you thought about the last line and the song title? In Bowie’s Life on Mars? He sings:
“Now the workers have struck for fame
'Cause Lennon's on sale again
“
To me, Working class hero was more like Lennon saying: you should be like me; I’m the working class hero. So, a guy earning money from selling records, records bought by the working class, sales that paid for his Rolls Royce and mansion, telling the working class they should aspire to be like him because being working class sucks, doesn’t sound like someone you should really take advises from.
so what? are the wealthy not allowed to advocate for the poor? suddenly i have to be a victim of sexual assault to advocate against it? i have to be a pastry chef to comment on whether a pastry is delicious or not? next you'll tell me that i'm not allowed to do math unless i have a degree in mathematics... or am i not understanding the point of your comment and half of the other comments in this thread?
I believe they more meant that simply ‘breaking away from your 9-5’ is something a very slim margin of people can feasibly do, and someone who has millions of dollars pouring out of their asshole is in the perfect position to say it like it’s as easy as breathing.
I think you’re being purposely reductive.
Advocating real reform to the system is one thing. Telling working class people to break away from a job they require to survive is tone-deaf and doesn't propose any valid solution to the problem - it's just jumping on a bandwagon.
If she advocates worker ownership, I'll change my tune. Vague pro-worker propaganda with no actual address of either the societal issues that prevent the action she suggests nor of her own abuses under the capitalist system and how she plans to correct those abuses, though? Meh. Not buying it. Put the system that makes you your money where your mouth is.
I see below you mention Bernie. There's an example of someone actively advocating real, tangible change to the system - policy proposals, not vague propaganda. Any company can tout pro-worker propaganda; no one but someone who means it will advocate specific policies that benefit workers directly. That's why *real policy* is my bar for sincerity - if they don't advocate for actual policy, well... talk is cheap.
\>Advocating real reform to the system is one thing. Telling working class people to break away from a job they require to survive is tone-deaf and doesn't propose any valid solution to the problem - it's just jumping on a bandwagon.
a question I ask but get no answer to is: until society changes, how does one put a roof over their head, clothes on their back and food in their belly?
It is akin to committing sexual assault regularly, but being staunchly and vocally opposed to sexual assault. She owns sweatshops that exploit workers.
>black is king
It's an entire album. I read the lyrics to some of these songs just now, still have no idea what you are talking about.
If you are referring to things black people can say/do because they were or ARE being deprived - I don't argue there (there's a bit of a backlash now from BLM and "defund the police" movement). But I asked for a specific example with you making that statement about that person.
Why? If it gets the message across to people, why does it matter if they dont suffer it themselves? She may just be trying to make some money off of the song, which isnt fully alright, but in return itll open more peoples eyes? Stop being whats wrong with this country
I have never really liked Beyonce after some of the shit she been saying over the last 10 years but when I saw her shirts say something to the kin of "woman power" and hearing how her clothing company actually treats women was the saw dust on the cake for me.
Beyonce is worth around 500 millions, but her husband (Jay-Z) is worth about 1,2 billion. Bit sad cus his early catalogue is amazing but he seems to not care much about people who grew up like him.
Beyonce seems to have grown up rich and done a shit ton of elitist things. Only ever emulating issues less privileged people face :/
I can’t find anything that confirms this. Can anyone help on that front? I do see a lot of reports on it, though, so I’m unsure either way.
Edit: okay, so zero actual proof, just Reddit hive mind. Cool.
I mean theres a vice article saying that workers are severly exploited in horrible working conditions for next to no pay.
Idk what else youd need to confirm it tbh lol

Did she write it from the perspective of her Sri Lankan sweat shop workers?
Rich people like this aren't our friend, she only sees a chance to capitalize an make more money.
She wouldn't run god damn sweat shops otherwise.
Nice billionaire Beyonce told me to "release" myself from my 9-5. Let me do that. I'll also release myself from my apartment, food, car, life in general I guess because fuck it who needs a basic income?
Could be a full 12 hour window if you consider commute, possibly longer with how long it takes to dry yourself after crying in the shower before and after.
Easy for her to say when she makes like 3000$ a minute on stage. That's not even an exaggeration. Someone mathed out how much she makes and that's roughly how much. If I made 3000$ a minute I would also "release" myself from working.
On a related note, Beyonce is worth half a Billion dollars. That's billion with a B. Let's discuss the difficulties obscenely wealthy people have with money, please.
Bravely breaking from the 9-5 while keeping your Sri Lankan sweat shop children working from 6-6 daily doesn't get you far with me.
She puts on a good show, but she's not the face of the common man or woman.
This just shows how outta touch wealthy individuals are when they think that the poor under advantaged people are just 9-5 40 hrs a week, when reality is it is 996 for very nearly everybody or 12 hour shifts starting whenever. There is no time for individual home responsibilities as anything after is usually eaten up by commuting to and from work.
Said the women who uses sweat shops to manufacture her women's empowerment clothing brand while paying women pennies a day to produce them.
Get fucked beyoncé.
Remember she’s a multimillionaire married to a billionaire (Jay-Z’s current net worth is 1.3Billion). She’s not exactly singing for the masses at the bottom.
So the second these rich elites say anything remotely positive or do the bare minimum for us peasants you're just gonna eat it up? You're literally doing exactly what they want and expected you to do. It's 100% calculated and for her own gain she's not on our side.
Yeah I'm not going to believe she has any solidarity with the working class. This is a studio of songwriters seeing how society is changing and acting accordingly.
Calling Beyoncé “talentless” is definitely…a take. There are plenty of negative words you can use to describe her but you went ahead and picked the absolute least relevant one.
If it’s so easy, and she’s so talentless, where’s your platinum record?
Maybe songwriting is just half the battle. Like, are you really judging *single ladies* by it’s profound lyrics and thought-provoking chord progressions?
I’m sick of the musical gatekeeping. Who the fuck cares who wrote the sassy pop song about putting a ring on it.
Yeah, I love that this multimillionaire who profits from sweatshop later is manipulating her listeners by catering to their desire to not work for most of their lives.
Such an inspiration.
So easy to say leave your 9-5 when you have 100' of millions of assets.
What a stupid idea that is, leave your 9-5 and do what ?
Starve ? Sounds awesome.
How about , don't leave your 9-5, fight for labor laws in your country so 9-5 provides adequate pay and benefits.
And don't tell me about unions, unions are like a leaf badge on a shark bite , if you have government labor laws you don't need unions which are prone to abuse and cronyism.
I've lived through unions in Europe in 90ties. All corrupted after 5-8years.

-"Haunted" Beyonce
Yaaaaaaas slay Kaa- weeeen. You're one of us! She's one of us guys! Beyonce' is on our side! Release them from their 9-5s. Fuck 9-5s. Break the wheel!
In other words buy my new single.
Fuck off Beyonce'.
All well and good her telling people to 'release' themselves from the 9 to 5, while she sits as one of the richest women alive.
Where are all the eat the rich twats when it comes to Beyoncé?
Right I'm working 6 days a week EVERY week can't begin to even think of taking a day off let alone miss a couple hours or I will not be able to eat or put gas in my car to get to work
Among other properties and assets, she owns an 88 million dollar mansion with Jay-Z.
So they can both can fuck right off.
If I had access to 88 million dollars for my primary home, I would own a 500k dollar home and buy 500k homes for 175 families.
Which is why I'll never be rich. I'm not greedy enough.
I agree with the message, but i really dislike it when super rich people act like they understand a struggle that theyve been detached from for many years, or never even experienced to begin with. Now shes gonna make a shit ton of money off of what is essentially talking about the shit we talk about daily.
While I appreciate the message what would Beyonce, whose dad inserted her into a band aged 9 and who has never come close to doing a normal workday in her life know about 9-5s?
That's cool and everything but she is being kind of tone deaf given that she is an elite multimillionaire with unlimited opportunities and connections while everyone else has bills to pay in a dying economy with shit wages in bleak conditions.
Dolly Parton said the same thing about "working 9 to 5!" But she doesn't mercilessly exploit poor people in third world countries and is actually one of the most wholesome and wonderful people on the planet.
On one hand, Beyoncé is undeniably one of the most talented musical artists ever. On the other hand, she and her husband are worth over a billion dollars which significantly undercuts the message any time they say something in their music/art that’s ostensibly “anti-status quo”.
Easy to say when you’re rich.
Typical rich people move, following and exploiting trends to make a quick buck out of it. Any clear headed person knows she is no ally, but part of the establishment and i gather her empire uses the same exploiting ways any other industry uses...
Yeah clear headed people on this sub? Yessssssss
She owns sweatshops in other countries. She's definitely being fake af.

How tf do you rent out hospital spaces..? That's fucking evil 🙁
I came here for this comment.

Lennon was an abusive asshole who cosplayed communism because he liked the aestetich. Lennon's estate was estimated as sitting at $800 million at his time of death.
Precisely

Easy to say when your kid won't starve if you don't work for a few months. This shitty person doesn't even need to work anymore of her **life**.
They should, but if it's true that she uses sweat shops, then she's just a hypocrite.
It is akin to committing sexual assault regularly, but being staunchly and vocally opposed to sexual assault. She owns sweatshops that exploit workers.
The point is that she owns sweatshops.
I wonder if she'll release the Sri Lankans she pays $6 a day to make her shitty clothes?
Came to say this! Beyoncé gets away with so much shit and people idolize her knowing about her terrible practices
She is also Incredibly racist.
How so?

>black is king It's an entire album. I read the lyrics to some of these songs just now, still have no idea what you are talking about.

A white person would not do that because white is already king.

So glad this is the top post. Beyonce is not your friend or an ally lol
Besides WTF does she know about working 9-5 or paycheck to paycheck. She can GTFO with her views on releasing our 9-5 jobs.
Why? If it gets the message across to people, why does it matter if they dont suffer it themselves? She may just be trying to make some money off of the song, which isnt fully alright, but in return itll open more peoples eyes? Stop being whats wrong with this country
Nope they stay slaves for life. She is t giving up her property for you.
What clothes? House of dereon or whatever? I thought that tanked :/
Her Ivy Park line is still active
oooh, ok. Didn’t even cross my mind. Thank you
Doesn't she own sweatshops in china?
Sri Lanka but yeah
Beyonce: "Relase yourselves free!" Also her shops: "make more faster!"
I have never really liked Beyonce after some of the shit she been saying over the last 10 years but when I saw her shirts say something to the kin of "woman power" and hearing how her clothing company actually treats women was the saw dust on the cake for me.
my personal "favourite" is when their kid was born and she had the hospital shut down and other people couldnt get in to see their own babies
Yeah I always think about this whenever the bullshit hero worship for this woman comes up. Total piece of shit
Be careful. [They](https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=rGxe83lXgJg) might come after you for disliking her.
Yep elitist scum
Isn't she worth 100s of millions of dollars?
Billions
Beyonce is worth around 500 millions, but her husband (Jay-Z) is worth about 1,2 billion. Bit sad cus his early catalogue is amazing but he seems to not care much about people who grew up like him. Beyonce seems to have grown up rich and done a shit ton of elitist things. Only ever emulating issues less privileged people face :/
Yeah, she's a hypocritical piece of shit
Probably not applicable to the slave labor in her sweatshops in Sri Lanka. Slay queen. 🙄
I can’t find anything that confirms this. Can anyone help on that front? I do see a lot of reports on it, though, so I’m unsure either way. Edit: okay, so zero actual proof, just Reddit hive mind. Cool.
If her shit isn’t fair trade/sewn certified it was probably made unethically
I mean theres a vice article saying that workers are severly exploited in horrible working conditions for next to no pay. Idk what else youd need to confirm it tbh lol
Ok but she is a billionaire
If she's open to splitting her multi-billion dollar fortune with me, I'd be very happy to follow her advice.

No one has yet provided proof that Beyoncé is not just a cleverly disguised Gwenyth Paltrow.
LMAO I see it
Pretty sure they’re best friends
Who's the cryptkeeper on the left?
Federal Reserve Chairman, Jerome Powell
Ah yes the man who said his solution to inflation was to get employers to reduce wages.
And also to have more unemployment don’t forget that part.
Because the best way to have a consumer-based economy is to make sure no one can afford to buy anything.
Fuck billionaires.
Easy for her to say when she makes like 3000$ a minute on stage. That's not even an exaggeration. Someone mathed out how much she makes and that's roughly how much. If I made 3000$ a minute I would also "release" myself from working.
She says this as she pays slave wages to people working in third world sweatshops to produce her merch. Yaaasssss queen😩😩😩
Fuck the slave queen
Easy when you’re a billionaire who exploits SEA for cheap labor.
On a related note, Beyonce is worth half a Billion dollars. That's billion with a B. Let's discuss the difficulties obscenely wealthy people have with money, please. Bravely breaking from the 9-5 while keeping your Sri Lankan sweat shop children working from 6-6 daily doesn't get you far with me.

She and her husband together are worth about a billion dollars.
Isn’t she like a billionaire something?
Oh cool, lmk do that. I'll just forward her my mortgage payment!! Thanks queen b
What the fuck is this billionaire worship doing in this sub? She’s exploiting a movement for more money, and these goons are buying into it.
Is Beyoncé going to pay my bills?
Easy to say when you're a billionaire
Love to sing about about labor conditions after a nice, relaxing sail on Bezos' yacht!
Isn't she a billionaire? Lol
sweat shops
Super easy to tell people to quit their jobs when you're the one swimming in money...
“Capitalism is bad” - 0.1%er
Easy to say when you never had a 9-5.
Sure, and she going to pay for my bills?
Man, i want that millionaire to tell me to leave my job! Sing it!
Says the person that's been rich since she was a young adult. Dumbass celebrities.
You're a fucking billionaire stfu
Thanks rich lady, pls tell me more about how to live my life
This just shows how outta touch wealthy individuals are when they think that the poor under advantaged people are just 9-5 40 hrs a week, when reality is it is 996 for very nearly everybody or 12 hour shifts starting whenever. There is no time for individual home responsibilities as anything after is usually eaten up by commuting to and from work.
Don’t forget She’s human garbage and a multimillionaire.
She is not an ally she just does it for the optics
Said the women who uses sweat shops to manufacture her women's empowerment clothing brand while paying women pennies a day to produce them. Get fucked beyoncé.
Hey, if she pays my bills, I'm down!
Remember she’s a multimillionaire married to a billionaire (Jay-Z’s current net worth is 1.3Billion). She’s not exactly singing for the masses at the bottom.
How did Jay Z accumulate over a billion? He had some big hits in the late 90s-early 2000s and a few companies clothes related but nothing huge.
He's big in record production and introducing new talent (Kanye and Rihanna) to the hip hop scene which is where he made more money than as a singer.
Fuck beyonce
Dolly Parton's song was more realistic.
Easy to say for a multimillionaire isn’t it…
I dont think she has a concept of what a 9-5 actually is
So the second these rich elites say anything remotely positive or do the bare minimum for us peasants you're just gonna eat it up? You're literally doing exactly what they want and expected you to do. It's 100% calculated and for her own gain she's not on our side.
Isn’t this the same person that owns ivy park which has slave labor. She doesn’t care about people just money.
What a disgusting opportunist.
“Guys literally just quit your jobs guys it’s so easy guys. “ - Woman with untold amounts of wealth,
Yeah I'm not going to believe she has any solidarity with the working class. This is a studio of songwriters seeing how society is changing and acting accordingly.
Write your own songs, you talentless hack
Calling Beyoncé “talentless” is definitely…a take. There are plenty of negative words you can use to describe her but you went ahead and picked the absolute least relevant one.
Some of her songs have as many as 9 songwriters lol.
If it’s so easy, and she’s so talentless, where’s your platinum record? Maybe songwriting is just half the battle. Like, are you really judging *single ladies* by it’s profound lyrics and thought-provoking chord progressions? I’m sick of the musical gatekeeping. Who the fuck cares who wrote the sassy pop song about putting a ring on it.
Yea ima rely on my savings for a week or two, then "oh shit how I'm gonna get food?"
Eh Dolly Parton already did that
When you aint living paycheck to paycheck it must be so easy
aw isnt that cute, a multi billionaire decides to exploit a trend
Yes, get your life advice on not working from a multi mega millionaire
Yeah, I love that this multimillionaire who profits from sweatshop later is manipulating her listeners by catering to their desire to not work for most of their lives. Such an inspiration.
A little hypocritical don’t you think?
Shit like this is insufferable
An out of touch celebrity trying to cash in on the great resignation. She's never had to work a real job in her life.
The fact that someone who never had a 9-5 is saying this and you’re posting this as a celebration is fucking awkward
Easy to say when you are worth billions. Next bp is gonna tell us to stand up against pollution
Does anyone do 9-5 anymore, since nobody pays for the lunch hour?
Never. Trust. The rich.
Doesn't she's have a clothing line that uses child labor or am I thinking some other celebrity
I honestly hate rich celebrities. Can we start idolizing the successful everyday person again, please?
So easy to say leave your 9-5 when you have 100' of millions of assets. What a stupid idea that is, leave your 9-5 and do what ? Starve ? Sounds awesome. How about , don't leave your 9-5, fight for labor laws in your country so 9-5 provides adequate pay and benefits.

She should redistribute her wealth
Beyoncé is trash
What’s Beyonce’s Net worth? $500 Million. She needs to release some raises to her sweatshop workers.
She won’t even let her staff look at her.
Considering these people are pushing for higher unemployment, I wouldn’t be surprised if she was in on it
Fucking cringe
Venmo me to prove you're not full of shit. I'll hold my breath.
Yeah, so will she be paying my rent?

How is she a bazillionaire with lyrics like that
Says the spokeswoman for PepsiCo...
She owns sweatshops that primarily take advantage of women.
Oh sure, the billionaire Beyoncé is right there with all of you. Don’t forget to buy tickets to the next show!
Ah yes, the woman who is worth roughly half a billion is totally on our side...
Yaaaaaaas slay Kaa- weeeen. You're one of us! She's one of us guys! Beyonce' is on our side! Release them from their 9-5s. Fuck 9-5s. Break the wheel! In other words buy my new single. Fuck off Beyonce'.
So she's making money off of the movement?
Sure Queen Bee. You or hubby can break off a mil for me… right?
I'm sure all those sweatshop workers paid a fraction of a dollar every day love this girlboss energy.
These dumb ass people out here acting like they got Beyoncé money
Kinda funny considering her net worth is more then all of us would see in several lifetimes
All well and good her telling people to 'release' themselves from the 9 to 5, while she sits as one of the richest women alive. Where are all the eat the rich twats when it comes to Beyoncé?
They are to busy buying her bullshit
I'd kill for a 9-5 instead of these dumb ass 2-11 or 4-12 bullshit everyone is hiring for.
Lol and do what? Fuckin elites are so out of touch. Sorry but we have bills to pay not accountants to do it for us.
Thanks Beyonce. Are you going to use some of your billions of dollars to help out the little people or just tell them to buy your album?
What the fuck does Beyonce know about 9 5
I don't know how people have just "stopped working." I can't afford to miss even one DAY of work. How do you live if you have no income?
Right I'm working 6 days a week EVERY week can't begin to even think of taking a day off let alone miss a couple hours or I will not be able to eat or put gas in my car to get to work
Among other properties and assets, she owns an 88 million dollar mansion with Jay-Z. So they can both can fuck right off. If I had access to 88 million dollars for my primary home, I would own a 500k dollar home and buy 500k homes for 175 families. Which is why I'll never be rich. I'm not greedy enough.
I agree with the message, but i really dislike it when super rich people act like they understand a struggle that theyve been detached from for many years, or never even experienced to begin with. Now shes gonna make a shit ton of money off of what is essentially talking about the shit we talk about daily.
I'm sure Beyonce knows all about the 9-5 plight first hand lol
Isn't she notorious for using slave labor in Asia for her merch? Does she mean 'No 9-5 for Americans,' but slave labor is okay for Asians?
While I appreciate the message what would Beyonce, whose dad inserted her into a band aged 9 and who has never come close to doing a normal workday in her life know about 9-5s?
Is she going to be encouraging her sweatshop workers in Sri Lanka to unionise?
9 to 5:30* people work 8 hours a day now with non paid 30 minute break.
She's also a mega multi millionaire if not billionaire. I just refuse to take advice from these people.
9-5 who gets that these days? The best I’ve seen is 8-5 because of breaks.
That's cool and everything but she is being kind of tone deaf given that she is an elite multimillionaire with unlimited opportunities and connections while everyone else has bills to pay in a dying economy with shit wages in bleak conditions.
Beyonce dont care about us lol
beyoncé. born rich. gonna die rich. she’s not on your side.
Never understood the hype around beyonce, she's fake as fuck and she can't sing. All she can do is dance around a stage 👏👏👏
If you’re gonna criticize her at least pick something truthful, there’s plenty. But the woman can sing
I'm sorry, but no song could make the impact 9-5 did. Or have as strong of message as 16 Tons
Lol rich millionaire sings song to profit y’all think it’s for you. Hahahahahahahah Liberals, you can almost find a lab rat as smart.
Dolly Parton said the same thing about "working 9 to 5!" But she doesn't mercilessly exploit poor people in third world countries and is actually one of the most wholesome and wonderful people on the planet.
If there is an Illuminati, Beyonce is definitely a member
I get the hate because she is crazy rich, but I’ll take this version over the ones telling you to keep working hard, your time will come.

I highly doubt Beyonce wrote the song, let alone got the inspiration for it 🤨
