Losing You – Solange Knowles
I can’t stress enough how much I love Solange’s new song ‘Losing You’ and its accompanying video. One review read like this and gave me a reason to make a WP entry about it (as I already posted the vid on Facebook and Twitter):
E! Online’s John Boone compared the video to previous clips by Knowles’ elder sister Beyoncé, writing that “Solange doesn’t have to be omni-bootylicious or perform insane choreography in even more insane heels (in reality, she just bops along to the beat, how relatable is that?!). She gets to focus her energy on being awesome and wearing awesome floral cardigans and having awesome times with her awesome friends.”

The comparison and contrast of the sisters have dodged her career ever since (remember her debut album?) and to that she has this to say:
“People think there should be this great rivalry between us, but there’s never been any competition. There’s a big age gap and we are two very different characters.” In another interview, Knowles said that she would not live by her sister’s level of stardom, stressing that she and Beyoncé are artistically different.

Here’s proof of that:

So it all started with this Facebook post:
Then it spread like wildfire:
I guess this means we’re all in agreement right?
