They've both been pushing out music successfully for 20 years (Dionne's first was in '63, last went gold in '85) so I'm not sure how much longer Dionne wants Bey to wait to be considered an icon. Dionne just be talking honestly lol. Beyoncé got the impact and experience for that icon title, in terms of pop culture outside of music.
Beyoncé never had a dry spell or had a "comeback" in her career :beyonce:

That's a silly statement. Beyonce has multiple iconic songs.

Beyoannce is a glorified dancer.
Beyonce been an Icon. She is the symbol of a full tail diva for this generation. She can drop albums with 0 promotion and they still do good. Now is she a legend? Some would debate that.

just off the top of my head....
the stuff shes done on the last couple albums im not really with but her older stuff is flames
Nothing rememberable.
Her catalogue won't stand up like a Anita Baker, Patti LaBelle, Aretha.
Beyonce is the Diva of this generation and it’s because of Social Media not her music
People want to be her not sing like her

Ehh Say My Name is an iconic song and it was released in 1999, long before social media.
Brandy has a better discography than Beyonce but never gets her dues. We been listening to them same brandy songs for over 20 years now...but she wasn't hot in the social media age of music so she didn't create a 'standom' -- Beyonce blew up right along with social media and greater 'Entertainment Television' with more sophisticated music marketing which we can't ignore. Same with Usher...he at least has a classic album (two IMO) but then Chris Brown and these other nasal singers came along and suddenly, Usher doesn't have a 'classic' album or songs?
I'm not going to discredit her, but I personally find a lot of her songs juvenile and without real meaning, even to Beyonce; I think there are a lot of people with way more classic albums in the same genre who don't even get mentioned just because they don't have the 'fan power'

Beyoncé was part of a girl group that sold 8 million in 99 and 6 million in 2000. Beyoncé’s solo album dropped in 03 and sold 11 million worldwide with 3 #1 billboard hits.
