The official irrational hate for Beyonce thread!

[Uchiha God]

I feel like strongly liking or disliking Beyonce are both feminine traits

Seeing nikkas say shyt like "most overrated artist ever!" is just as weird as the shyt her stans be posting.

she's aight

 

[BmoreGorilla]

Yall gon be in for a rude awakening 20 to 30 years from now

She got songs damn near 20 years old now that you still hear. Thread got me dying


I could turn on the radio right now and still randomly hear Get Me Bodied or Upgrade You

Beyonce is a once in a generation talent.... but she has no real hits. You won't hear most Beyonce music played 10 years from now at a cookout.

You'll hear "before I let go" played, but guess why? Because it's a Frankie Beverly and Maze song, not a Beyonce song.

It's incredible that someone with talent like that won't go and get with some real songwriters and put out something quality, instead of this microwaved music she does, that's hot for 2 weeks and then you never hear it again.

I've NEVER heard anybody play anything from that Lemonade album. Just utter trash. Drunk in love was hot when it was hot, but that disappeared too, and you don't hear anybody playing that anymore.

It trips me out when ppl compare her to Mike Jack, as if we ain't playing that nicca's music from 30 years ago like it just came out yesterday. She'll never be on that level.

Lemonade is her by far best album, fastest selling album and it has no hits. That's because she wanted to go for them high reviews, and musical accolades not cater to people that listen to whatever is popular.

Unfortunately or fortunately, she doesn't make cookout music.
But she with Destinys child has 8 #1 songs from pre-streaming era, and a lot of it is very girly. Single Ladies and Crazy in Love still shut down clubs like they just came out. Say my name still that shyt, 25 years later just like TLCs no scrubs. Both era defining classics.

Name one song from the past 20 years that's a cookout song 10 years from now.


People play what their parents play and what everyone knows, with this new era where people don't listen to radio or MTV. There's a lot more big artists and a lot less songs that everyone knows.


But MJ, nobody is MJ

Her Sasha Fierce album dropped a year before Obama became President. That album was pretty much the one that propelled her into megastardom territory because prior to that, she was more of an upper B-list singer.

Beyoncé has been a list since 98, and solo a list since 2003

 

[TooLazyToMakeUp1]

Me Myself and I is probably her only song I have in a playlist

She's talented and a elite performer but her music is weak

 

[Field Marshall Bradley]

Weak compared to which one of her peers?

I'm confused about how you can claim that critically acclaimed, platinum-selling music, is weak

 

[The Villain]

Her music on her own always been straight garbage (Destiny's Child music >>>) but she is A1 at performing and presentation/packaging. And ultimately that's more important than having good music

Sonically weak

I don't care about those accolades

When I hear the music, it's not hitting


TBH, Solange's recent work is better than Beyonce's best album

 

[Standing on business]

Lol Solange last album got shytted on real bad, everywhere

 

[Lootha VanDraws]

I feel different about it after these recent listens.

What chu talkin' bout Kamala?

 

[YouMadd?]

Imagining exploring Beyoncé’s discography once let alone having a revisit.

and with that said, she has two albums

That's an opinion.

Overall, her work is universally praised by critics and fans alike - a key sign that the objective opinion is a lot closer to their viewpoint than your minority viewpoint.

This is classic and a disingenuous way to avoid answering the question with this internet generation…. “Sonically?” What does that even mean in 2022 compared to live bands and orchestras that was used to make music in yesteryear?

I’ll still play though… You saying Solange a better artist than Bey?
