So According to Beyoncé fans Michael Jordan is not a Global Icon And Bey is a bigger name

[TEH]

How are they even being compared what's next Lebron vs Ghandi

Lebron is way bigger than Ghandi

If Beyonce dropped a physical copy only album today, and Jordan drop the grey 11's today we know who gone sell more

I consider myself something of a "real negro" but I do enjoy the occasional pop album. Is this 'Simple Things' worth a listen for an urban breh?

Wouldn't consider Zero 7 pop at all, it's some smooth chill shyt.

Uhhhhh no.

MJ is definitely still tops....mainly because he's been famous for so long. The youngins and old folks know him.

Some 95 year old granny in North Korea would know MJ before Beyonce. Amongst western nations, the difference is probably much smaller. The lowest information people on the planet have heard of MJ. Bey is really close though.

if this was Michael Jackson. I don’t think Beyoncé stans are ready for that fight. If this was a legitimate debate which most don’t think it is unless you are a Beyoncé Stan, they would not be able to combat the Michael Jackson fan base. You see how they focused on Michael Jordan?

The Jackson comparison is done all the time lol. Remember the articles after the Coachella performance

Beyonce is the most overrated artist of the 21st century.​

Hey live performances are S tier, best of her generation. Some songs are cool but I’m not her target audience so

MJ is definitely bigger tho

The main Michael JORDAN vs Beyoncé mess started from this tweet from Magic


Earvin Magic Johnson (@MagicJohnson) Tweeted: For me? Michael Jordan, Michael Jackson, and Beyoncé are the three greatest entertainers of my lifetime; and you could probably throw Muhammad Ali in there.


All the comments were dragging her (mainly from yt men lol)

Funny how when someone mentions their ‘dislike’ for bey it’s always met w the usual ‘iTs tHeIr oPinIOn’ which it is, but whenever someone especially other icons say things like this, it’s always argued as if it’s not once again, JUST AN OPINION

Just silliness all around

I dunno which is worse, the Beyhive or Kpop fans

kpop fans hands down.
i recently read that some wanted to chase a member out of their favorite group, because he announced that he was engaged
beyhives are crazy as well.

 

[Umoja]

Sia >>> Beyoncé

There, I said it.

 

[IsThatBrothaMouzone?]

Crazy that Beyonce won't put anybody on.

Good point. What is her legacy outside of herself?

Beyond that....MJ can be called the GOAT and no one would seriously question you.

Can we honestly call Bey the GOAT singer? This includes men AND women. Does she top Michael Jackson or Elvis on popularity, raw talent etc? Whitney was a better singer along with Aretha. I can't say that Bey is objectively better than Sam Cooke as a singer.

In terms of sustained success she's definitely on the short list but you can't say she's clearly the best singer or dancer so her status is more about achievement than a single defining trait. Her talent is top notch but many of her songs are forgettable....mainly recently.....she does have plenty if you go back a bit.

 

[Umoja]

Does Beyoncé even have any actual hits? For as much stannery as she has online I legit can hardly remember the last time I’ve heard anyone listening to Beyoncé in real life.

Live under a rock brehs.

Fine if she is not your cup of tea but some of these comments are recklessly off the mark.

 

[Antwon Mitchell]

Beyoncé fans are the worst.

i literally said if it was a legitimate argument. JT, Justin Bieber, and many others have had the same comparison. It’s not something to care about. The facts speak for themselves.

See how Michael fans react to Elvis Pressley and the Beatles for reference.
