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

[Chelsea Bridge]

If her voice doesnt move you....I dont really have a come back for that besides the fact she is classified as a star rated vocalist based off her range, agility, power, etc. by music critics

Her peers and veteran acts everyone from Luther Vandross to Jill Scott have raved about her voice

That said, I consider her a icon and future legend

Same as I consider Tina Turner legends

Prince, Stevie are my music GOATs

*shrugs*

This whole thing started because ppl were so upset with Magic Johnson for stating his opinion that she along with MJ, Michael Jordan are the greatest entertainers of his lifetime...ppl got upset over his opinion because how dare he hold Beyonce in such high regard and started throwing around these comparisons ...and now her fans are coming to her defense

It's all silly

I wouldnt even compare the two...its apples and oranges

Maybe I’m just used to the old school power house vocalists. .

And let’s be real. Both MJ’s were at the top of everyone not just black people in their prime. They solidified themselves as the GOAT. Nobody was topping them. When a rock band finally knocked Mj off the #1 spot on the billboard charts that was a really big deal. If Jordan lost at the finals during his prime, it would have been talked about for years. Beyoncé has not done any of that yet so honestly, it’s kind of disrespectful to their legacies to put her up there with them when she hasn’t really earned it. If someone beats her at anything it’s not an unforgettable moment, it’s what always happens.That’s why she shouldn’t be in the convo.

Basketball is more popular around the world than many care to admit. Obviously not like soccer but MJ is known everywhere.

He is literally in his own category. Michael Jordan is synamous with being the absolute best at whatever the sport or activity is.

Beyonce is popular but I think its mainly among women. Everyone knows MJ. Even if you dont watch sports.

Nah those tweets are getting almost 3000 likes

And you bet the likes and cosign comments would be astronomical if posted on shaderoom

You've never heard

"This person is the Beyonce of the group..."

Lol I believe Jordan is bigger...but its debateble considering a large portion of the world doesnt fukk with basketball like that

But Bey is famous, famous too...and beloved. especially amongst the younger generation

This is her getting mobbed in Europe



Asia

She’s being Mobbed by paparazzi in the second video . not fans

I travelled a lot and went to remote place. Even in the deep heart of Senegal, in the village elders and people know about Michael Jordan.

 

[TEH]

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

Searches for the eye roll smiley

Lol

We forget Jordan lost in the playoffs and didnt make it to the finals for years ...which was heavily discussed by the sports media until he broke through

And when Beyonce doesnt do well on the charts it makes news headlines and trends on Twitter ...same as when she does well

Not to say you are wrong, shes young, but its Magics opinion... he seen them all live and in person up close...and watched them grow

Appeared in MJ videos, played against Jordan, etc

And Magic is one of basketball goats himself

So all that considered I respect his opinion

And believe it does have merit...others would agree

Seen Bey live and she is a beast
....has plenty of memorable, acclaimed performances...Her touring numbers back that up....believe when she finally retires she is going to go down as the top female touring act of all time

Beyoncé stans are retards.

 

[KodeBlue]

Beyonce isn't even on Rihanna's level yet.

Beyonce is an evil illiterate witch and her fans are insane cultists.

I'm shocked Jay Z was able to get a son outta her. Evil women can't produce sons normally.

I didn't know that Beyonce was that evil until I saw a video about her "being a Virgo."

That being said, hell no, she's not on MJs level. MJ is a God of his respective craft. Nobody is on his level. He is basketball

why y'all always try to downplay beyonce with these comparisons

That’s a whole fact.
