As the war rages on between the Beyhive and those who were not impressed by Beyonce’s performance on Sunday’s 57th annual Grammy’s via social media, now Bey has dropped a behind the scenes video explaining why she took on the controversial song.
In the black and white behind-the-scenes clip of her preparation for her Grammy performance of “Take My Hand, Precious Lord” during the show’s ‘Selma’ tribute.
Bey explains:
“My grandparents marched with Dr. King. My grandfather was a part of the first generation that attended the all-white school. My father has grown up with a alot of trauma from those experiences. I feel like now I can sing for his pain, I can sing for my grandparents pain. I can sing for some of the families that have lost their sons.”
In the clip, the African-American men chosen to sing behind her during the performance each take turns sharing their personal experiences in dealing with racism, what the song means to them, and much more.

Bey has drawn a lot of criticism over the performance from many who felt the performance should have been done by soul singer Ledisi who performed the song in the movie and soundtrack. As we previously told you Ledisi opened up about the snub, while John Legend revealed that it was Bey herself who requested to do the spiritual intro to he and Common’s performance.
How do you think she did?
