Carlos Santana says Beyonce is not a singer
Guitar legend, Carlos Santana in an interview with Australia Associated Press has said Adele beat Beyonce to win the biggest awards at the 2017 Grammys because she can sing unlike Beyonce who does modelling kind of music.
He said, “With all respect to our sister Beyoncé, Beyoncé is very beautiful to look at and it’s more like modelling kind of music—music to model a dress – she’s not a singer, singer, with all respect to her“.
The guitarist whose 1999 collaboration single with Wyclef Jean and Product G&B reached number one on Billboard Hot 100 later took to Facebook to clarify his statement.
Santana wrote, “My comment about Beyoncé was regretfully taken out of context. I have the utmost respect for her as an artist and a person. She deserves all the accolades that come her way. I wish Beyoncé and her family all the best“.
He added that he only intended to congratulate Adele on an amazing night at the Grammys.
