Aside from Kanye and the most hardcore Beyoncé stans on the Internet I don't see anyone calling her some type of musical genius. So I don't see a problem with her not writing/producing/ or playing instruments. She's a great entertainer
When Janet Jackson was referenced it was as a performer/musical act and not a 'Queen' or a 'leader of a movement'
If we take Nostalgia out of this.... This is actually debatable....
I stopped caring about traditional female R&B solo acts after Chante' Moore and maybe Aaliyah(she was doing things different). Don't own any of her music as a group or solo, just never appealed to me.
Well it's the truth. She's been working in the industry for a long time now. She wasn't an over night success story. Unless you mean manufactured because her team is close to their chest and run a tight ship. But she had to work for that team she has now.
By that logic, Michael/Janet Jackson were "typical manufactured" stars.![]()
beyonce is more talented overall than anybody youre thinking is better
nikka please stop..... Janet is nowhere near as talented as Beyonce.![]()
Typical Manufactured?!?
Beyonce has worked extremely hard to be where she is.
No Taylor Swift/Katy Perry B.S... But you'll never hear white people trash them.
Coli logic kills me...
Are we just doing pop stars? If not here some more with a clearly larger vocal range & write their own songs. Beyonce is a hard worker and has a big machine behind her.

Her R&B style was different i.e. music she sang to was different from the typical R&B mid tempo stuff at that time.what things were Aliyah doing differently
This isn't even pertinent to the discussion...
Sure it is. Are you really wondering why someone who is held up as a 'Queen' has more eyes and more criticism than someone who isn't?
"Nah breh [X generic rnb singer you never heard of] shyts all over Beyonce"Fans are fanatical..... and borderline stupid..... so I try not to pay attention to them that much(myself included) So with that being said, I try to be objective as possible when gauging an artist or athlete....
The fact that you have to go back to a different era to find an artist who rivals her(who just happens to have the last name Jackson) says a lot.... because currently, she has no peers..... kind of like a Queen so to speak....![]()
You missed my point. I know no one cares about Taylor/Katy in the booth. I don't give a damn about them either. But that pop audience does and somehow their heralded as greatness. I just find it interesting how some try to tear Bey down and it's mostly her own people.
I read on this very same site that Zayn is a great R&B artist. That's the B.S I'm talking about. He doesn't even have half the talent as J.T and I'm not even a big J.T fan. People love mediocrity when it's convenient.
shyt is jokes...
