Beyoncé - Lemonade (Discussion Thread)

[CrimsonTider]

oh you mean the song where her man skeets on her dress?

and the other song where she sings about doing a surfboard on her man?

Like I can understand the septum wearing natural haired black feminists looking at beyonce like a god because they confused idiots anyway but grown ass men

Good music is good music and Beyoncé is the best

the best at what roflmfaooooooooooooo. I can't believe someone just typed this.

 

[Standing on business]

Dudes really hate Beyoncé, dudes scared to acknowledge greatness

And who brought up Adele? She's huge because she's a fat white soul singer but her albums suck. Jazmine Sullivan > Adele

Beyoncé is the goat though


Sold out arenas across the globe > record sales, especially since hers are low because of the tidal fiasco

So you like "girls run the world" and "single ladies" fam?

Just say YES or NO don't preach n teach just answer the question.

I come w/facts sir, Beyonce is lagging behind Taylor, Adele, and Katie Perry - in fact, all three of them hold significant album sales records, Beyonce holds none. And she's been around a whole decade prior to them.

Look all this up yourself.

So how is she the GOAT? What criteria are you going by?

Compare Katy Perry, Taylor Swift and Adele to BEYONCE brehs. BEYONCE.

She's the goat because her albums are BETTER, and her performances are better. Beyonce shows are legendary. And she's a better singer than Katy and Taylor, and on par with Adele.


Add to the fact that she's not white, so she doesn't have the benefit of identifying with the majority like that. She's a level above all of them. I would deadass put hands on your if I saw you out right now. Word to Jigga.

They don't like her music man

How do you like an artist that makes songs specifically for women?

They basically took the "it's raining men" formula where u make a song that's gonna live on for generations, and package it for one artist

I dare somebody to google the disaster that was "who run the world" and how the label tried to scramble to get the song pulled off radio - it's a terrible novelty song!!

 

[Booker T Garvey]

Compare Katy P.

nikka I'd have you shyttin your teeth for the next 3 weeks if you tried to put your hands on me

Again, you come with emotions and opinions, I'm coming with facts

and when people compare beyonce to those artists, race always comes up - nevermind that Mariah Carey holds almost all the records for female artists, and Whitney Houstons has sold more records than U2 and Garth Brooks

B--but---but race!!

You ol white is right c00n as negro

Taylor can't dance or sing better than B, nor does she make better music. Adele fat ass can't even move. Yea Katie perry shinning but the only we're leaving out, she's a candle in the sun that shyt don't even out.

 

[DontEemTry]

I've never understood why grown men argue over an artist that makes music they don't like.

nikka, go post about a broad you DO like

nikkas in here legit tryna convince people someone who's music they like is wack.

FOH, let that bytch breathe, damn.

Wait. You just blatantly ignored my question about those songs bruh?!?

You're so married to being on this side of the argument that you can't even bring yourself to admit you don't like her music even when protected by the anonymity of the Internet.

at Katy Perry.

Beyoncé marks the fourth-largest sales week of an album during 2013, behind Justin Timberlake's The 20/20 Experience, Eminem's The Marshall Mathers LP 2 and Drake's Nothing Was the Same.[128]

Beyoncé (album) - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

^^^ She dropped her album December 2013 and Katy dropped her's months earlier and still got washed by Beyoncé with a surprise album without a #1 single. Beyoncé does a super bowl performance with Bruno Mars and her set is the most talked about. Katy Perry got outshined by Missy Elliott who performed music that was over a decade old and Katy had dancing dolphins and Lenny Kravitz.


Outside of Beyoncé's last three albums 4, Beyoncé, and Lemonade (possibly her overall best), the rest of her catalog doesn't really exist to me. She's a great performer, a great singer, but her catalog is well below average. Most of her music is disposable IMO. And even with the albums of her's that I do like, I don't really consider them essential.

As for the rest of the women being compared:

Taylor Swift- Can we at least compare Beyoncé to someone who has at least some semblance of relevance to R&B?

Adele- her last album is the only album I've checked from her. It's nice, but still

at Katy Perry.

Katy Perry was the highest grossing artist this year

She holds the record for most #1 singles on an album

She's obliterating beyonce in digital singles sold

All this talk about compare her to rnb singers and 3 year old data, what album was the best blah blah blah...that's all the shyt that's in your heart which is where you need to keep it.

None of you are debunking my arguments

Prove it, because Forbes' says otherwise:

15 Highest Paid Music Stars of 2016, From The Weeknd to Taylor Swift (Photos)

Taylor Swift Tops Billboard's Top Money-Makers List of 2015


^^^ Unless I've overlooked something, neither of them are on either list.

Katy Perry is tied with Michael Jackson for most #1 singles on an album (only real argument you have so far)

Obliterating Beyoncé in digital sales is laughable. Why? Katy's last album sold 1,600,000+ copies vs. Beyoncé's 2.4 million copies (just comparing their 2013 albums).

Physical sales will always mean more than fluffed up streams


Hi Aubrey

 

[Mike Otherz]

Grown nikkaz taking time out their day to debate why Beyoncé is trash. Insecure much? She makes fun music. Is a dope entertainer. That's her lane. She is fantastic at it.

Sometimes I feel "deep" music is overrated. If it blinds you to how dope Beyoncé is then maybe it is. I can confidently say she the baddest since prime Janet. Prime Janet
