Not one to be shown up by her hubby, Beyonce just nabbed her own global publishing deal with Warner/Chappell Music. Just one day after Jay-Z made his own announcement.

Deets inside....

It's one thing to make your cash with albums and tours but it's a while other to lock in long term consistent money that comes whether you're working or not. Singer/songwriter Beyonce knows the deal, so she just signed her own global publishing deal with a publishing powerhouse

It’s an honor to join Warner/Chappell Music and to continue working with my friend Jon Platt,” commented Beyoncé in the Warner/Chappell announcement release. “I trust his vision and admire his professionalism, and I look forward to our partnership.”

Jay-Z signed a similar deal for himself and his Roc Nation artists to gain compensation for their writing. Billboard reports:

Beyoncé has signed a global publishing agreement with Warner/Chappell Music, Billboard has learned exclusively. Effective immediately, Warner/Chappell -- headed by chairman/CEO Cameron Strang -- will administer the 17-time Grammy winner’s future songwriting, including her anticipated next album.

....

Beyoncé is the latest high-profile addition to the Warner/Chappell roster. Earlier this week, it was announced that Jay-Z and his Roc Nation firm had also signed worldwide publishing administration deals with the publishing company. In addition to Mike Will Made It, who co-produced Kanye West’s hit single “Mercy,” recent Warner/Chappell signings include the acquisition of Miramax’s film music catalog.

Big moves for our fave power couple.

Her 20 percent writing is

Her 20 percent writing is much more than you can do. Do some of ya'll just feed off negativity. As a guy, i don't understand why so many women funnel so much negativity towards Beyonce, she is one of the few black women out here doing their things, you would think some of ya'll would see the positivity in that.

I am a woman of success

I am a woman of success myself but who is talking about doctors , professors, etc. right now. Amber Roser was a stripper but you "women" have nothing but love for her now. "Why don't you think bigger? Are you teaching your youth to "fuck an education" BTW, What is that? huh It's fine to dislike someone. I dislike Rihanna. Hence, I don't rush to her posts to read and comment. Most of the time, I avoid them. You need to sit CHO azz all the way down you jealous, hateful bitch. BTW proofreading is your friend.

As a woman, I don't understand how a man can sit on a gossip blog and talk about what women say.

Soledad O'Brien would be a

Soledad O'Brien would be a great addition to Oprah's Own Network. Not sure in what capacity seeing how Oprah is doing all the high profile sit down interviews. Maybe Soledad could interview people in famous criminal cases. Soledad will land on her feet either way.
