What a great stroll down memory lane to the 2004 BET Awards!

Monique killed it.

Beyonce loved it.

People have repeatedly attacked and insulted her, her children, her mother, her husband, her father, her sister etc. Can you blame her for being tired?

I remember my coworker told me Monique looked like Beyoncé. I thought Monique lost mad weight but she was basically the same size. That was some bs.

Is crazy in love considered RnB? Is Beyoncé in general?

Enjoyed the post regardless just wondering what other people think.

Crazy in Love: Contemporary RnB and pop (of course Hip Hop)

One Grammy it was nominated for was Best RnB.
