Rush Limbaugh Slams Beyonce For 'Bow Down' Pulling '180' On Feminist Stance

Rush Limbaugh the conservative talk show host began to slam Beyonce for hew new controversial single "Bow Down /I Been On."

The 62-year-old called out the wife of Jay-Z for doing a "180" in the image department. As the singers previous songs like "Single Ladies" and "Run the World" were about girl power and now he claims the new single is all about telling women to "Bow Down" to their husbands.

"[Destiny's Child] songs were attempts to inspire young women not to take any grief from men. She's done a 180," said Limbaugh. "Beyoncé, now having been married, having been impregnated and giving birth to Blue Ivy ... she's got a new song, 'Bow, Down Bitches' ... Beyoncé is now saying, 'Go ahead and put up with it!'"

He continued, "You know why? I'll tell you why. Because she married a rich guy. She's even calling herself Mrs. Carter on the tour...She has shelved Beyoncé...She now understands it's worth it to bow down."

However as E! News states, he might have taken Beyonce's new song out of context, saying it's a tough message aimed at any upstart singers hoping to challenge her place on the pop-music throne.

"I know when you were little girls/You dreamt of being in my world/Don't forget it, don't forget it/Respect that. Bow Down Bitches," she sings.

Referring to her husband, Jay-Z sings, "I took some time to live my life/But don't think I'm just his little wife."

However Limbaugh isn't alone to take the song offensively as R&B star Keyshia Cole slammed the song.

"First 'Women need to Stick together' now bitches better Bow. Smh. But it's all G! Chicks stay shooting the s--t. But when I speak my mind it's a prob," she wrote on Twitter Monday.
