How Amerie’s career was hijacked by Beyonce and J-Lo

[BmoreGorilla]

Its some real dumb opinions about Rich and A in this thread.

Ameriie's career was sabotaged at almost every level you don't have to do that if someone doesn't have 'it'

Ameriie wasn't lacking shyt....Beyonce and Jay-Z are both fukking goofies in real life if those two can be marketed as cool anyone fukking can

Jay was never goofy at all. Matter fact when RD dropped nikkas was like "who is this nobody talking all this shyt about having all this money?". Then on Vol 1 he explained to us who he was. Jay has always marketed himself and started multiple trends. Doesn't sound like a goofy nikka to me

Beyoncé doesn’t post on social media. Her team posts shyt on IG and she has 109 million followers, more than all of them. Beyoncé not engaging with fans at all helps in her & Jay-Z maintaining their celebrity in a world where everyone else appears so accessible.

beyonce is lagging behind selema gomez and ariana grande on instagram.

this is the age of information, you don't have to guess anymore

Dann I hope that dude gets paid for the Beyonce stanning...like damn can u chill for a minute he must be an offshoot "extra hardcore Beyhive member" but got excommunicated for being too extra with the fandom

Ha. I was gonna post that last night. I love Beyoncé. Chick is a hustla with a crazy work ethic and has talent. But the shyt that comes from her Stan base be ridiculous. She really does have the most annoying stans on the planet.

there's a reason that weirdo has that badge under their name

Cardi B just shared a record held by Ashanti.
Cardi B Joins The Beatles & Ashanti With First 3 Hot 100 Hits in Top 10 Simultaneously; Ed Sheeran & Beyonce's 'Perfect' No. 1

Ashanti, who can't sing at all, set a music record held by only the Beatles - her first 3 songs ever hit the top 10.

yet dudes in here are telling you that she STILL wasn't a bigger artist than beyonce in her prime

this has been a problem all up and down this discussion, dudes are blatantly ignoring FACTS/REALITY just to support beyonce.

Most of them are under 25 so they would've been younger than 10 years old in the early 2000s.

If we transported back in time to 2002, Ashanti was the girl on Murder Inc. dropped 3 big urban singles (Happy, Baby, Foolish) and was on all of Ja Rule's and J-Lo's singles that year/summer. J-Lo had a BIG run in 2001 and 2002 with J.Lo/This Is Me Then albums. Alicia Keys had a big debut with Fallin, A Woman's Worth and Girlfriend. She was the new girl on the block. Amerie made a banging summer joint. Aaliyah had just passed last summer and everyone was still mourning her and playing her songs everywhere. And, Beyonce had just finished up the Goldmember movie, dropped Work It Out which was her first real solo single and was working on her debut album. Destiny's Child had dropped Survivor the year before but, this idea that Beyonce was the Queen back then is laughable

You still had Mary J. Blige (the Breakthrough album was BIG in 2006), Mariah Carey (had a major major year in 2005), Brandy (Full Moon was a good album in 2002) and Monica (So Gone was a big album in 2003) hanging around too. Bey Hive stay twisting facts up and distorting reality

Was the supposed to be some type of comedic relief corny ass nikka.

again. the argument was that there was somebody bigger than beyonce in the urban music world, the proof is there that yes. there was.

there was a female singer that out did beyonce. the only people that have a problem with even thinking that are people in the church of bey

They're switching goalposts and keep adjusting years to prove their point.

They're creating their own arguments in their head. The moment Beyoncé released her solo debut dangerously in love, she was a bigger solo artist than Ashanti.

They went from 02-06, to 02-04, to just 02 knowing damn well Beyoncé didn't drop until 03

Yeah. Looking back, there really was not one year where Beyoncé ran shyt.

2002-2004 was Ashanti and Alicia Keys.

2005 was Mariah.

2006 was Mary J.

2007 was Rihanna.

2008-2009 was really when Bey hit the home run with Sasha Fierce and started really taking over the game. But let these nikkas tell it, Bey been running shyt since the beginning.

This thread

Amerie had some hits but nowhere near as talented as Bey. Her production carried her. I will never forget the first time I heard Why Don't We Fall In Love while I was smoking in the car with my homeboy. When the beat dropped we like:

"This beat is tough whose this?". Thinking somebody was about to spit bars and shyt. Then when she started singing we were like

She could've been like another Aaliyah tho. Whats the next thread gonna be? "Why didn't Lil Mo have the same career as Beyoncé"

uhhh...if proof comes out that somebody sabotaged her career then yes. that's fukked up and completely discussion worthy.

so funny this discussion shifted from the evidence and interviews they provided in the video - even Envy and Charlamagne asked her about it on their show

but this is all just some coli shyt though.

man, I just posted where beyonce is being crushed on social media and in youtube views - only to have somebody say "beyonce doesn't post so she can stay famous"

some of these cats need SERIOUS psychiatric help. like immediately.

Diary of Alicia keys is the best female album in the 2000's

If we being real Alicia Keys crushed a lot of these hoes careers. People tend to forget that tho becuz her career fell off a cliff outta nowhere
