That’s why I laugh when people try to shyt on Alicia Keys. The fact that she could do what she did in the Beyonce era is crazy to me. So many chicks came and went, but Alicia stayed dropping one every now and then to let us know she was still out here. Bey and Rihanna ran things obviously though.

Alicia Keys did too. Clive davis and j records, the industry machine was pushing her mediocre music with her deep ass voice drowning out all the real singing talent. She got all these awards for her first album and the second one and she wasnt good. That fallen in love song was garbage :picard: . Her vocal performance was very cringeworthy, (she was literally yelling and straining her voice to hit the high notes) Would not surprise me if Clive Davis made her go ladylike with the appearance when its clear that she was a butch lesbian or bi. :yeshrug: it was Alicia then Beyonce when her solo career started. shyt aint been the same since.

Beyonce getting with Jay was the best/worst thing

Majority of her hate comes from bum ass dudes who mad he better than their favorite rapper

Lol I don't know what it is about her specifically maybe that could be apart of it

nikkas just as mad as women at Bey for Keri Hilson's career though Keri started the "beef" (and also came at Ciara crazy) for no other reason than her producer told her to

Keri hilson released an album like two weeks ago that made no appearance on the chart. They only love and root for people like Keri and amerie to humble and discredit Beyoncé.

I mean but she had an amazing career with all that you said. That’s all I’m saying :yeshrug: If people wanted Amerie and Keri to have an Alicia Keys type career they would’ve supported.

Breh, you know thats not the case. It can be argued and even proven that both Keri and Amerie may have had their careers stalled by the industry and/or Beyonce allegedly.



Supposedly this record was basically her admitting it. :yeshrug: not surprising especially how she and her parents were basically sabotaging and ruining the careers of her destiny child bandmates. She gets with jay, solo career kicks off and notice all of the women r&b singers around that time from keri hilson, keisha cole, amerie and etc that had some traction ended up having their careers stalled for some strange reason. Now when I think of it, if Beyonce wasnt on that mommytime and she was still on some only Beyonce can shine shyt with the music, SZA would be in the same boat.

Amerie put an album out in like 2018 and I heard nobody talk about it. How can this woman not thrive in the streaming era??? The same era where people say all we do is stream. All you got to do is click on her shyt. Personally I think talking about this shyt 20 years later is not productive for these other artists. Amerie and Keri are still young, there’s time for them to get another hit… or at least a decently popular song. Get some shyt popping for them on TikTok or something.

I was going to mention that song but it’s one of my favorite workout tracks :lolbron:

Like I said, we know what it is. I’m still Bey hive. Seen her in concert multiple times and I’m seeing her this year. I can just look back and say… maybe I wasn’t seeing things exactly how they were when I was younger🤷🏾‍♀️ lol

With that said, if Beyonce was as talented and made great music as she BELIEVES she does, she wouldnt have to stall, sabotage or ruining anybody elses career to keep hers afloat. If anything, she should have just let other artists shine so she could stand out more. She actually needed the competition around her. Her music more than likely isnt going to stand the test of time. Maybe its just me but i dont hear or see anybody not even her own fans talking about her music or saying she has classic album

Crazy in Love came out in 2003

1 Thing came out in 2005

Amerie worked with Rich first, but none of Amerie's first album sounded like Crazy in Love.

So he went on to develop that sound, gave it to Beyonce first, and then came back to his regular collaborator and gave her a version of it 2 whole years later.

Not to mention he also gave that sound to Jennifer Lopez and others in that same timespan.

And somehow that's Beyonce stealing from Amerie?
There's actually a few songs that sound like CIL on Amerie's first album.

Thats a very distinct, DC go-go sound. Rich and Amerie are both from DC. Beyonce was hardly the first time that sound "started."

Walk us through the process of how she stalled and sabotaged any of these women careers. Is it mind control to manipulate the audience not to support any of these women projects? You sound like a right wing lunatic conspiracy theorist.
