Honestly, what impact has Beyonce had on R&B or Hip Hop?

and quite a few more songs that were extremely popular with thots when the came out

who cares if it's popular, Iggy's song was #1 that doesn't make it a classic, Bieber has a bunch of popular songs and plat albums yet none of those are classics. It takes more than just sales for an album to be a classic

Had this convo with a chick this weekend. Told her B ain't that great. She been in the game 20 years yet doesn't have 1 classic album or song. She makes disposable pop music that has 0 impact to anyone who isn't a Beyonce stan.

She has classic songs just no classic albums. She has nothing like Purple Rain or Thriller or even Confessions.

She is one of the only 2 black women in the music industry that can still sell and she has good live shows.

That's not really anything compared to the people who came before her who were doing that, selling much more and had chart topping hits.

The reason why she is seen as much more than she is is b/c the rest of the industry doesn't care about the quality of their work. & a lot of the others can't dance and can't even stay on key. They make the same music that plays on the radio.

She didn't really add anything new.

Rihanna is the one out there breaking records with her singles and has the title of fashion icon and the most marketable person in the world.

She releasing albums with no press and taking the internet by storm when she does it. She had that Rachel Roy chick trending off a damn vague song line. I mean, I know she's hated by some but he has shyt on lock with her fans. I like some of her songs and thinks she has some modern classics under her belt but I would never by her albums as she narrowed down her style or whatever to a certain set of people. Grown men talking like Beyonce should make songs for them. Just my take. This shyt is starting to get to the Jordan vs Kobe/lebron level where people are saying her whole career garbage cuz she not MJ or Prince. Like them arenas she filling worldwide are all photoshopped.

beyonce was not the first artist to do this. Again she's a trend hopper, not a trend setter.

beyonce did that after meeting with Death Grips, who had dropped a surprise album with no promotion

Beyonce is the white people of music, she takes things from less popular artists and then acts like she did it first

I don't know, I don't get it. Other than being attractive, I never understood the allure. Musically, she's never impressed me. Of course she has some pipes, gotta give credit where it's due there. Still, its glorified pop music with a "Black" stamp of approval. I almost feel like the stamp is given to her because other than Rianna all these other popular pop singers are white. Both of them lack that seal of authenticity that Gladys, or Patti, or Aretha, and a host of others have had throughout the years IMO. Then again, I'm an old soul.

The whole thing about women being able to relate to her, is just indicative of how pathetic a lot of women are in regards to self esteem and insecurity. I hope I die before I ever find myself in a place during life that I need to relate to an artist. I mean how pathetic is your life that you need to identify yourself as being part of a Beyhive? To identify yourself not as a fan, but as a bonafide stan, and not just that, a gang of stans, is some sh!t only foks with self esteem issues would do. It's like people who've been molested and rally around each other for support with the only unique thing in this case being, we're talking about a pop singer. It's pathetic.
