The reason why people say that about Beyonce is because she spent a good 10 years making bird brain music instead of using her talent to make more serious music and I'm not about to defend something we (i.e. blacks) used to always criticize Beyonce for just because it's a white girl vs. black girl debate in this thread. Notice nobody said this shyt about Lauryn Hill, Alicia Keys or Mary J. Blige :sas1:

That's because none of these artist were on their face everyday. Super Bowl after super bowl, Grammy after Grammy. 19 years of being on the radio and on billboard.

Those accolades come with haters

But he wasn't comparing her to those singers... he was comparing her to Adele, who is a poor man's version of a soul singer. She gets burn partially because she's a white woman singing "soulful, heartbreak" music that's palatable to white folks.
I understand that I'm saying its worse than that though because he basically said she just looks good, he said she can't sing or perform at all, she is just something pretty to look at.

What if Jill Scott were white? Neither of them have her lyrical depth or vocal manipulation. What about Rachelle Ferrell? There are quite a few black vocalist who easily surpass Adelle vocally and lyrically. Beyoncé is talented in her own right. Carlos is out of line here. He is one of my faves but he tripping. Adelle is talented and also aided by being white. Her weight is actually an asset in her case, though it usually isn't. She ain't seeing Jill though.

I don't say she couldn't sing, I said her songs sound all the same, she's nothing special
she doesn't make soul music and she's not a soul singer

jennifer hudson could sing those songs way better than her lmao, they are generic

Beyonce is nothing special brehs....:mjlol:....
