Beyonce's Rip Off Documentary 'Black Is King' Flops Costing Disney Millions Of Dollars In Losses

August 6. 2020

This is a follow up to the Judiciary Report articles Beyonce Steals Preexisting 'Black Panther' Movie Scene For Scene In Her Rip Off Documentary 'Black Is King' (Photos) dated July 30, 2020 and Beyonce Steals From 'Black Panther' Movie For Her New Documentary And Album 'Black Is King' on July 24, 2020.

Yahoo Finance released a news segment that contained information on how "Black is King" performed on Disney Plus, where it was exclusively released. "Black is King" is a massive flop. Only 3.99% of Disney Plus' 60,500,000 subscribers viewed the documentary film. Oh but wait, it gets worse. Only 2% of Disney Plus users bothered to watch the whole thing, with most switching off after viewing it for a few short minutes. Yes, it was clearly that bad.

On August 5, 2020 Yahoo Finance broke the news that "Black is King" flopped

Yahoo Finance's Alexandra Canal stated of Beyonce's "Black is King" that "the film did not do as well as expected." The streaming data by the 7Park company revealed "Black is King" did so poorly on Disney Plus it "doesn't even crack the top 5." Ratings reveals "Black is King" came in at #13, beaten by old animated films and "Hamilton" among other titles.

People already saw "Black Panther." As they've been notified "Black is King" is a weird copyright infringing rip-off of "Black Panther" [Beyonce Steals Preexisting 'Black Panther' Movie Scene For Scene In Her Rip Off Documentary 'Black Is King' (Photos) ] why would they need to see Beyonce's bootleg, crackhead version of it. "Black is King" is inauthentic, sloppy, crazy looking, poorly put together and full of occult symbols and themes. She is insane to have done this.

Beyonce used many occult symbols in "Black is King"

Disney took a bath on "Black is King." Disney paid millions to have "Black is King" made (sets, costumes, staff, props, rentals, film crews). Then, Disney paid millions of dollars for advertising on social networking and television. The ads were all over Twitter and on television channels. Only for "Black is King" to flop and be rejected by viewers.

As stated on the site last week, "Beyonce and Jay Z are two crazy, lame brained, ignorant idiots who've stolen and devalued a billion dollar film clearly, thinking it will make them a billion dollars as well (it won't) like two vile, thieving criminals" and "All of Beyonce's projects have been flopping for the past several years (and getting worse) as people are boycotting her rip-offs" (Beyonce Steals Preexisting 'Black Panther' Movie Scene For Scene In Her Rip Off Documentary 'Black Is King' (Photos)) . I was proven right this week, as "Black is King" was pronounced a flop yesterday with people boycotting it.

Beyonce's publicist has been working overtime to put out stories promoting and spining "Black is King" giving that piece of celluloid garbage far too much credit, when it has made no cultural or financial impact. As it stands, Beyonce stole and devalued other people's preexisting copyrighted works to make "Black is King." It's not a tribute to Africa, a continent she knows nothing about.

Not to mention, Beyonce ripped off Africans last year and was slammed for it (Beyonce Songs 'Spirit' And 'Brown Skin Girl' From The Movie 'The Lion King' Contains Copyright Infringement And Contradictions and Beyonce’s New Song 'Spirit' From 'The Lion King' Reboot Flops On The Charts And Its Music Video Is A Brazen Rip Off).

Beyonce is fake woke. She only began doing items concerning Africa when people (both blacks and whites) criticized her for constantly wearing blonde and light brown European straight wigs and weaves, getting a nose job and sporting pale face and body make-up in trying to look white, when she is so clearly black ("Beyonce Had Plastic Surgery").

White conservatives on Twitter have been mocking and slamming Beyonce for wearing European blonde weaves and wigs in a documentary film about Africa. White people on social networking are accusing Beyonce of culturally appropriating their culture of blonde European textured hair. The fact of the matter is Beyonce never wears her own African hair. She's ashamed of it, as people are stating on social networking.

Beyonce claims to be a feminist and pro-black yet keeps stealing from black female copyright holders/content creators (among others) and hiding her natural hair, pictured above, but bleached European blonde. She is a fraud a hypocrite.

Africans are also complaining about "Black is King." Africans are stating Beyonce does not know about their culture and is employing every stereotype and trope of what she thinks Africa is, despite the fact she truly does not know. Africans are also offended by Beyonce stealing from the 1973 African film "Touki Bouki" once again.

Beyonce ripped off the title of Kanye West's documentary

I was informed that Disney executives are "embarrassed by what Beyonce has done and wish they could take her name off it" (as writer, director and producer) as she's ripped off "Black Panther" and other preexisting copyrights, such as the aforementioned, famous 1973 African film "Touki Bouki." She also packed so many stereotypes into the documentary, it's made a mockery of African culture. Beyonce has made a fool of herself.

Beyonce and Jay Z (pictured left) keep stealing from the 197 African film "Touki Bouki" (pictured right) giving no credit or payment to the copyright owner/writer/director which has caused Africans to slam her all over the internet

I have not seen the entire "Black is King" documentary but from watching the trailer, which I dissected to show infringements of the 2018 film "Black Panther" I also saw an infringement of one of my preexisting copyrights from 2001, in the synchronized swimming scene in "Black is King." Therefore, Beyonce stole from me again and devalued my preexisting copyright in the flop "Black is King" (The FBI Is Stonewalling Congress On Releasing FBI File In Madonna Human Rights Abuse Case (Congressional Documents)).

Even the African artists she placed in "Black is King" are people I tweeted about on Twitter in time stamped tweets years before Beyonce contacted them. Ironically, I learned a lot about African artists and culture from living in London, England twice in 8-years. There is a large African population in London. I met many Ghanaians and Nigerians. Some of my family members are also half African.

Members of Madonna's sect, such as Beyonce, Jay Z and Rihanna, are on my Twitter page and routinely mimicking the time stamped items I tweet about on the site. For example, when I posted about the Louvre in Paris, not long after, Beyonce and Jay Z went and filmed a video there (and there are many more time stamped examples of this copying and mimicking). Beyonce and Jay Z's music video was was met with criticism from art lovers on the internet, who deemed Beyonce and Jay Z too low class and vulgar to have made a music video at the Louvre. The video was deemed tacky and cheap in content. Thy really were out of their league. The music video and the album flopped ("Love is Love").

I've also finally watched Beyonce and Jay Z's video they shot in Jamaica which I mentioned in the articles "Beyonce And Jay Z Steal From Another Jamaican Artist Resulting In A Lawsuit" and "Madonna's Kabbalah Cult Targeting And Killing Jamaicans With The Support Of The FBI " and they have indeed stolen from my copyrights again for that project and arrogantly went out to my homeland of Jamaica to film my copyrighted work they brazenly infringed.

Beyonce seems to think stealing other people's copyrights makes her a writer, director and producer. The main problem is she does not have the talent. She is not a writer, director or producer. She is a thief devaluing other people's copyrights with her madness.

She is disgracing herself and all who are connected to her, by engaging in these intellectual property crimes. She is a covetous, greedy, mean spirited, overly competitive hater, who is going to great lengths to defraud others for her own ill-gotten financial and social enrichment.

Once again, here are the similarities to "Black Panther" that I found from the trailer alone of "Black Is King" which lets me know the full documentary is even worse and more laden with thefts of copyright:

Beyoncé's 'Black is King' attracts less than 4% of Disney+ users on debut weekend: Data

August 5, 2020, 2:56 PM - Yahoo Finance's Alexandra Canal breaks down how Beyoncé's new visual album 'Black is King' performed on Disney+, while the company announced that its live-action 'Mulan' film will bypass the theatrical experience and head straight to Disney+ as a premium VOD offering at $30...

Beyoncé’s new film ‘Black Is King’ is stirring up controversy

Posted on Friday, 24 July 2020 14:24 - One year after the release of the album “The Lion King: The Gift”, Queen Bey is about to unveil a new Disney production. Made in the style of a long, meticulously crafted music video, this condensed version of Black history is already proving to be divisive.

“The film is not available anywhere before its release,” warns a press officer about Beyoncé’s new visual album, Black Is King, which is set to be released on Disney+ on 31 July. But all it took to attract the ire of African-American feminists, especially the youngest among them, was the film’s one-and-a-half-minute trailer.

Criticism of the work is going strong and has a radical bent, with detractors calling out the trailer for romanticising Africa as well as for its cultural syncretism, pre-colonial aesthetic, cultural appropriation and “Wakandafication” (in reference to the Kingdom of Wakanda, a fictional African country depicted by the Marvel movie Black Panther).

Jade Bentil, a Black feminist historian and PhD researcher at the University of Oxford, commented in a tweet: “The repeated tropes/symbolic gestures that homogenise & essentialise thousands of African cultures in service of securing the terrain for Black capitalist possibilities & futures is tired.”

Judicaelle Irakoze, a self-proclaimed Afro-political feminist who is followed by more than 30,000 people on Twitter, expressed a similar point of view, disappointed that Beyoncé “use[s] her power and status […] to glorify africanness rooted in power game[s] against the white gaze.”

Just a few seconds into Black Is King’s meticulously crafted trailer, Beyoncé appears astride a horse, wearing an outfit made of animal hide and a crown of zebu horns. This iconographic imagery is reminiscent of the film Touki Bouki directed by Senegalese filmmaker Djibril Diop Mambéty in 1973. The singer had previously borrowed this aesthetic when advertising her “OTR II” tour with Jay-Z in 2018, without giving credit to the original artist.

The trailer shows Queen Bey glittering in all her glory, with layered necklaces wrapped around her neck and sparkling glasses framing her face, giving off an on-screen presence that could be likened to a bling-bling version of the Dahomey Amazons (an all-female military army of the Republic of Benin). Needless to say, this aestheticising phantasmagoria created in an Afrofuturist vein is not universally liked.

However, according to the journalist Sophie Rosemont, it’s precisely “the role of a pop star to make a statement through an aesthetic prism. Even if the statement is political, it has to be packaged as beautiful and spark people’s imaginations,” says the author of the French book Black Power, l’avènement de la pop culture afro-américaine (Black Power: the Advent of African-American Pop Culture), to be published in October by GM Éditions.

In a post on Instagram, the singer said that she “wanted to present elements of Black history and African tradition, with a modern twist and a universal message.”

“It is too bad that Beyoncé doesn’t seem to take contemporary Africa into account in her film and has rooted its imagery in a tribal Africa. Other musicians before her, such as free jazz artists from the 1950s and 1960s, have already revisited these roots,” adds Rosemont. “Since that time period, pop culture has been so deeply influenced by ancestral reference points that it’s really about time to move on to something else.”

Biblical and Yoruba symbolism

“The ancestors never left you,” chants the 38-year-old star in a spoken-word style summoning the negro spiritual songs sung by slaves deported to the United States in the nineteenth century. Wearing a white dress, Beyoncé evokes a sort of Madonna as she cradles a newborn baby on the seashore. The sequence is a cross between biblical and Yoruba symbolism.

Black Is King has a soundtrack featuring songs from the album “The Lion King: The Gift”, all of which were performed by Nigerian, South African, Ghanaian and Cameroonian artists.

Kinitra Brooks, a professor of African-American literature specialising in Black feminist theory, notes in her work The Lemonade Reader: Beyoncé, Black Feminism and Spirituality, published in 2019, the prevalence of references to African ancestral religions in the film Lemonade, a companion to one of Beyoncé’s most politically-charged albums (released in 2016) which overflows with protest songs about Black and African pride.

In one of the sequences, Queen Bey has fun playing the role of the Yoruba deity Oshun, the goddess of love and fertility, protector of pregnant women and children, and queen of freshwater.

Brooks writes in her book: “The liquid element represents a literal or symbolic return to the Atlantic Ocean waters which are part of the ancestral past and collective memory. The presence of water […] points out […] to the Atlantic journey from Africa to the Americas.”

This bridge between Africa’s history and diaspora has continued to influence Beyoncé’s visual identity and sound since 2016. The problem is that this age-old narrative has gone stale, especially if it is not backed up with concrete action.
Black rights

Another criticism the R&B queen has faced is that she does not tour often enough in Africa. However, her focus has been on involving local stars in her projects to showcase contemporary African culture.

As Rosemont points out, whereas “Michael Jackson and Rihanna sampled a line from the hit song ‘Soul Makossa’ by Cameroonian musician Manu Dibango without properly crediting him in their respective compositions”, Black Is King has a soundtrack featuring songs from the album “The Lion King: The Gift”, all of which were performed by Nigerian, South African, Ghanaian and Cameroonian artists...

Tina Knowles delivers hard-hitting response to critics who claim Beyonce's visual album Black Is King appropriates African culture: 'She has a right to her heritage'

Published: 20:01 EDT, 3 July 2020 | Updated: 03:26 EDT, 4 July 2020  - The proud mother took to Instagram on Friday and hit back at critics who claim the pop superstar is 'appropriating' African culture in her upcoming visual album.

Black Is King, which is based on the soundtrack she produced for the 2019 animated remake of The Lion King, follows the story of a young king's 'transcendent journey through betrayal, love and self-identity,' while ultimately celebrating 'Black resilience and culture.'

Proud mother: Tina Knowles came to the defense of her daughter and hit back at critics who accused Beyonce of 'appropriating' African culture in her upcoming visual album, Black Is King.

The criticism from several academics began shortly after last week's release of the trailer, which features Beyonce and an array of Black creators and talent --some of which are from Africa -- dressed in traditional African garb, complete with biblical references and Beyonce's narration and soothing vocals...
