(video added) beyonce once again proves...

[ridedolo]

Can you imagine if Beyonce had come out in the Mariah/Whitney/Madonna/Janet era? She'd just be some girl. All of them have records that will never be touched, and this was back in the day when you had to actually go out and BUY shyt. Hell, Lemonade is just a watered down version of Rhythm Nation, and Janet was only 23 when that came out. Her golden era (Control to All for You) takes a steaming pile of shyt on ANYTHING Beyonce has ever done.

Don't get started on the OGs. You have Diana, who really started the whole black female multi-entertainer thing, if you ask me (singing, acting, endorsements, etc.) If we're talking all-time all-around GOATs, I would say that Diana passed it to Janet & Janet passed it to Bey.

And then you've got the pure soul singers...oh, gosh, we'd be here all day. You know Aretha Franklin won eight Best R&B Female Performer Grammys eight years in a row? Eight. Years. In a row. It's like...why the hell would you even bother cutting a record?

why is madonnas name even in this convo. she is nowhere nearly as talented as any of the women you mentioned. her whole career was built on shock and gimicks.

why ya'll gonna make me do this? janets one of my first crushes...

but facts are facts. show me janet singing as strongly as...

Nobody - and I repeat NOBODY - is arguing that Beyonce isn't the better singer. But if you want to pull out some receipts on performances, albums, movies...nah. You don't wanna do that. Because there's nothing you can pull that isn't going to be a direct ripoff of somebody else. Janet, Michael, Bob Fosse...shyt, there are entire articles dedicated to the fact that not once in her life has Beyonce had an original idea or thought.

Big fish in a gigantic pond > big fish in a goldfish bowl. Anybody who thinks otherwise is either gay as fukk or under 25.

Oh, she's fukking trash. The only reason why she is where she is is because she's white. But you gotta respect her hustle and longevity.

Especially Janet....

Beyonce nowhere near her either imo.

Beyonce will never reach madonna, janet or mariah status. Its impossible. Hundreds of millions sold.


They in here confusing retweets and instagran likes for popularity

theirs like 10-15 artists with as good or better sales than beyonce since shes came out, and same amount with as many or more top hits.

When it was madonna, janet and mariahs time they were undeniable #1. Beyonce getting killed in sales by adele and taylor swift and killed in hits by them + rhianna. Shes not and never been #1 biggest female artist in the world

And now shes getting killed by adele, taylor swift and rhianna

The disrespect to Janet, Madonna and Mariah is crazy. The people who said shes as big or bigger than MJ though? Should have a week ban + site wide neg train on them to think bout what they said

[Maxine Shaw]

GODDAMN DOUBLE POSTS WHAT THE fukk BREHS

 

[Maxine Shaw]

When it was madonna, janet and mariahs time they were undeniable #1.

Don't forget Whitney. And the crazy thing is that they were all out at the same time Just killing each other. The last great era of legends. In order to be a legend, you have to change the game. Beyonce might do everything better than everybody, but what has the brought to the game that somebody else didn't do? I'll wait...

Beyonce getting killed in sales by adele and taylor swift and killed in hits by them + rhianna. Shes not and never been #1 biggest female artist in the world

That was cold, breh. COLD.

so u admit that bey is the most talented artist since mj

Beyonce isn't as talented as Jermaine Jackson, much less Michael OR Janet. (Dude is a crazy underrated bassist.)

well since The Dream writes all her music and produces all her songs and coaches her on how to sing the songs he writes for her, and also does his own music, wouldnt that make him techinically more talented

I still listen to Beyonce's music from 10+ years ago and I hear ppl playing it all the time.

anyways, came to cs the op, beyonce is the best

you'd have a point if the dream didnt actually put himself as an artist and never reached her level
dolly parton wrote one of whitney's biggest songs, does that take away from her talent?

No he doesn't

I thought it wasnt about sales or level tho I thought we were talking about talent can you stay focused on which goal post you want to move

What exactly is everyone debating again ?? Commercial Success or virtuoisic skill (vocal ability, showmanship, stage presence)
..two clearly different arguments Breh ..OP should have specified a bit more to eliminate the mindless dribble going on here.
