Only thing Rihanna has on Beyonce are singles. Meanwhile, Beyonce has is performing at the Super Bowl and a Presidential Inauguration in a span of just months. That's already >>>>>> Rihanna. Rihanna's on the same level as Nicki Minaj except Rihanna has bigger singles. They both have huge singles and both are discussed more for their personal lives and antics outside of the music than the songs they put out. On the other hand, Beyonce is one of the biggest stars in the world.
Minaj :snoop:

Rihanna has like 30 top 10 singles, every song she puts out is a hit since Pon de fukkin Replay. Endorsements, acting, touring, 2012 sexiest woman alive. Beyonce made a nice comeback at the end of last year but Rihanna's still more ubiquitous with more fans.

I already noted that Rihanna has bigger singles. Other than that she's Nicki Minaj status in comparison to Beyonce.

Rihanna's hasn't had a starring role just yet, if I'm not mistaken. Her endorsements are not bigger than Beyonce's $50 mill deal with Pepsi. Since when did Sexiest woman alive 2012 automatically mean someone was a bigger celebrity or star? Again, she's Minaj in comparison to Beyonce.

"4" was a step in the right direction, no doubt but "Run the world" was the typical song. And now she's back again with another typical song. I did like "Love on Top" and "Party". But "4" is also her least selling album which is why I see she's probably going to go back to these style of songs. Beyonce to me is a brand. But how many Classic albums does she have? She's on her 5th album? Whitney? 4 straight Classics, Mariah? 4 Straight Classics, Janet? 4 Straight Classics, Sade? 4 Straight Classics (5 if you including Lover's rock). I mean I'll give beyonce "Dangerously" but that's probably it.

Lol this is silly how was "run the world" the typical song when nothing else on the album sounded like it.

Rihanna's movie wasn't a blockbuster. Nowhere near Dreamgirls[/I, Goldmember or Caddilac Records. Her endorsements are not bigger than Beyonce's $50 mill deal with Pepsi. Since when did Sexiest woman alive 2012 automatically mean someone was a bigger celebrity or star? Again, she's Minaj in comparison to Beyonce.
Minaj is several levels below the both of them.

You're trying too hard. Like Beyonce.

Why the fukk would Beyonce be beefing with insignificant ass Keri Hilson? That's like Jay Z beefing with Young Dolph. :wtf:

This song is garbage,
Her performance at the Super Bowl was garbage,
Her inauguration performance was garbage,
I really do not see the hype,
For this song?
It's not like see really has any competition to compete with,
She acting like this is the late 80's- early 90's,
And she is Sade, Janet, Anita, Mariah or something,
Who all equally had competition in their day,
She does not have any,
and which none of them made a song,
Calling other r&b bytches to bow down.


I agree with everything except the Super Bowl. She did give a good performance even if a lot of those songs don't hold up. I just can't believe at this point in her career she feels the need to do a song called "Bow down B!tches". Really? again what grade are we in?. Also Lip Singing the Inauguration was wack. This is the 1st Black President in his historic 2nd term. This is historic, we are talking once in a lifetime. If your a$$ can't sing it live then cancel cause I can't give her a pass for that.

:what: :heh:

No, Im trying to take it to reality. You seem unwilling to leave Stanville.

I love it when people call someone a stan when they disagree and have nothing better to back up what they are posting.

No matter how you try to spin it, Rihanna is not a bigger star than Beyonce. I'm not a fan of either artist like that. I own no album from either of them. I think Beyonce's easily the better singer, but other than that, they are kind of interchangeable musically. Both have benefitted from the production of The Dream & Tricky Stewart and StarGate (the teams behind some of both artists' biggest records). That being said, I'm not so disconnected that I don't recognize that Beyonce is bigger than Rihanna. Beyonce just dropped this snippet combined with another random record and it's news. It's not even a single and it's not even clear if it's on the album, but it's getting treated like she just released a single.

Nothing to back it up? You're the one trying to argue that musical success is irrelevant when comparing singers :heh: and that Beyonce's still the bigger star because uhh...she's Beyonce.

Yeah thats stan behavior.

The song's getting attention because its out of character and pathetic for someone that's supposed to be on the level of Beyonce. But then Jay's always been on that try-hard "look how great I am" false bravado so :yeshrug:
