Dionne Warwick not convinced that Beyonce is a classic or iconic artist with a classic catalogue

[???]

That’s how u know it’s hate. Like how the fukk would u know if she didn’t have a classic album if u didn’t listen to her 5 or 6 albums. Dudes are fukking mental. Lol

Her most soulful undisputed no argument track was that sean paul shyt and her dude kept on hating. Gtfoh, he ruined her opportunities to make solid great melodic shyt and great collabos. Them usher joints was weak.

 

[Apollo Creed]

shes iconic, but in an era with no competition.

I`ve seen some make the argument that when Aaliyah passed, that opened a clear path to the top for Beyonce. Granted Vocally Beyonce is superior, but Aaliyah had a machine behind her. I give Beyonce respect because I literally saw her grind from doing features for rappers in a girl group, to the girl group blowing up, and so on. But many people feel Beyonce is just a talented Robot, and that we dont actually know who she really is unlike the icons of the past. Everything Beyonce does comes off like someone else made her do it/fed her the script.

Y’all say dudes gay if u listen to her. Why are u listening to 6 albums that cater to gay dudes? Matter of fact why are u listening to something u say is mediocre anyways. My time is valuable I ain’t wasting it on shyt I don’t like breh

Beyoncé has some classic singles under her belt breh. Dionne is and never was an icon. She wasn’t even among the best of her generation

No she doesn't.

 

[Apollo Creed]

No she doesn't.

you quoting a breh who said New Jack Swing was the WOAT.

Blame the hating ass joe camel and her useless stiff ass writers for making her shyt wack...if she was so great, she won't be scared to collaborate with the greatest out there (both past and present)... she's a figurine and everybody knows this.

Icons make songs everyone can relate to, feel or sing. You naturally feel great songs. Doesn't matter who the singer is if the song is classic.

Everyone cang sing an MJ hit. Everyone can sing/feel a rihanna, mariah, pattie or whitney hit.

Beyonce's "hits" target a very specific audience, and that audience excludes any self respecting heterosexual male. Her "hits" are garbage and forced. Damn near 20 years as a solo artist and her catalogue is weak as fukk compared to other legends.

BTW, jayz also blocked a shaggy collab behind the scenes.

Y'all dont even listen to beyonces albums yet have the nerve to call her shyt trash

4 was an amazing R&B album and nobody appreciated it (Love on Top, I Care, Dance for You, Party, Countdown) were all on that album

Lemonade was a great body of work besides sorry/formation she had some intricate songs on there (Love Drought, Sandcastles, freedom, 6 inch, Don't hurt Yourself, pray you catch me)

Dangerously in Love, me myself and I, baby boy, Crazy in Love (which was named the song of the century) all were just from her debut solo project

Self titled literally changed the way albums are released to this day

Beyonce has a career span of 22 years. She has been through the 90's , the 2000's, the 2010's, and I can guarantee the 2020's as well with people consuming music in differently she still remains at the top.

I just don't understand why people (especially black people) want to try so hard to discredit her impact/legacy

Her catalog is there y'all just dont listen

Her legacy and impact is left to women, I don't know too many straight men who will openly say her songs resonate with them. Vocalists like Alicia Meyers, Anita Baker, Minnie Riperton, Phyllis Human, Aretha Franklin, Whitney Houston, Roberta Flack, etc..sung with not only heart but on topics that reached between the sexes without that bird rhetoric injected in it.

Boommmmmmm....These clowns who love caping are focused on image and other goofy shyt. We are talking specifically about the songs not dancing, sales and singing ability crap.

its not her personality that concerns me, its the quality of her music. i feel like if she had a rival to play off of, or was in a more cutthroat era i could see what shes really made of, as it is, its like shes a whale with other artists being remora or barnacles, content with noncompetition

A song that came out in 2003 was named the song of the century? What century?

From 1903 to 2003?

From 2003 to 2103?


Beyonce stans, yall

didnt they say she got Keri Hilson black balled? Beyonce is 100% a capitalist through and through. I think she rather make it where competition can't exist than to compete for her position. I`d argue Solange is faaaaaar more talented than Beyonce from a creative perspective (even though Solange at times seems like her whole act is a costume, or she really isn't that smart and just loves the imagery associated with what she does).
