Carlos Santana: Beyonce Is a Model, Adele Is a Singer

[Kiyoshi-Dono]

The only Caucasian female singer acknowledged by me

 

[stepbackj34spud]

Adele is fat

 

[Kilgore Trout]

Adele is no Fiona apple

 

[Marciano]

Beyoncé can make a "Hello" type record (see "Listen" from Dreamgirls) but Addle can't make a "Formation"

This

Beyonce can sing but her voice is soulless. She is a great entertainer but I wouldn't pay for an album or even illegally download one for that matter.

Also, abraxas is better than Beyoncés entire discography. All she makes is throwaway music, I don't know why anyone would expect her to win a Grammy over Adele.

Carlos Santana's wife is black FYI...so I doubt he's racist.

No controversy here

Adele is a better singer

 

[Bolzmark]

Both are amazing singers. Adele might actually be a level higher than Bey. But Santana lost me because none of the awards are for SINGER of the Year. It's Song, Record, and Album of the Year. And to minimize Bey to a model or pretty face only is absurd and insulting.

[Tribal Outkast]

All these unknown or less popular singers out here and I'm supposed to be outraged by this? I'm good. Both are good at what they do and they're both overrated.

Talking about shytty songs like that Hello shyt is one of the most boring songs in life.
shyt sounds like something played at the end credits of Mandy Moore flick.

 

[Beck.er.]

fukk the behive....half them SINGLE bytches stopped listening to Beyonce after Beyonce got hooked up with Jay-Z..

No more single ladies chant or independent talk.. they looking for a new singer to ride on

Bey and Jay been together since the early 00s.
"Beyhive" didn't even exist until after they'd been married. A bunch of them are young too. And white.

Lmao at souless

Adele's music is dry as fukk, she's no different than celine dion lmao

you don't even know what soul is lmao

nobody is even talking about adele's performance lmao, Christina Aquilire or whatever her name is can sing better than this bytch

people are just programmed to think her style of music is more artistic because you have to sit down to listen to it lmao

 

[AV Dicey]

the one thing I got from this Beyonce Adele kerfuffle is the dearth of black artists winning the major grammy awards, meanwhile ALL of pop music is just black music.

Black artists really need to stop going to that show

and somehow that 'jackass' Kanye was right we all laughed when he walked on that MTV stage, and yet here we are, Beyonce sneezes and the whole world takes notice.

My question is do you nikkas even know why black women and people who follow pop culture are upset? Responses like yours is actually what is infuriating them and why they said fukk it. Just because someone can sing it does not mean that they have Album of the Year. When Beyonce outsold Beck they said he won because he was more critically acclaimed (he wasn't but they were basically identical). Beyonce's last album has a critic score of 91. Adele's has a 73. Do you know how ridiculous it sounds to say because something sold more it's better? None of y'all said that shyt when Taylor Swift beat Kendrick. Let's go give Suicide Squad the Oscar with that logic.

Now I see what @mastermind be talking about with you guys hating black women/being ignorant to their issues. 98% of this board bytched about Swift beating Kendrick, but the exact same argument applies here and a lot of you cats are like . nikkas are ridiculous. Y'all do realize a black women has not won this shyt in 20 years and Swift and Adele both have two in the past 10? Y'all realize that only 3 black women have won ever? That less than 10 black people have won ever (Stevie won 3 times in the 70s)?

Frankly Adele is a better singer than Beyonce.
A lot of people are better singers than Beyonce.

Everything ain't a fukkin controversy.

It's one thing to say Adele is a better singer. And completely another to say Beyonce can't sing. And I can't stand Beyonce's music outside her first and some of her 2nd album. But she has better range than Adele and for him to reduce her to a "model" like she's only there to look good is WILD disrespectful.
