Resentment

About Resentment

"Resentment" is a song written by Walter W. Millsap III, Candice Nelson and Curtis Mayfield and originally performed by Victoria Beckham. It is an emotive ballad whose lyrics detail a situation where a woman feels hurt and anger that her man lied and cheated on her. "Resentment" along with several other songs were meant to be on Beckham's solo-album, Come Together (2004), which was later shelved, leading the song to be included on the documentary DVD titled The Real Beckhams (2004). As the album release was shelved, the song went up for sale. American singer Jazmine Sullivan re-recorded the song for her unreleased original debut Break My Little Heart (2004), but her album was shelved too and the song went for sale again. Eventually, American singer Beyoncé was given the song and recorded it in 2006. Beyoncé's version of the song was included on her second studio album B'Day (2006) and featured additional lyrics and an arrangement composed by the singer herself.  more »
