So it’s based on YOUR perspective. Everything just used to prop up the Usher album could easily apply to a Beyoncé album.It's an aura thing. After the success of 8701, and then Confessions, Usher was the biggest male solo artist. Girls in school were carving lyrics from My Boo into their desks; those songs were on the radio constantly. Beyonce has been so much about marketing, not organically getting people to love her music and be obsessed by it. Frankly, I'd say Justin Timberlake's first few solo albums also had a bigger splash than Beyonce's solo work. I can sing Justified front to back. I can't name more than 3 songs on any Beyonce album.
I think this what you guys fail to realize. You are making the assessment based on your opinion and vehemently deny that that an artist as big as Beyoncé could possibly in someone else’s perspective be at that level. Like you can see you don’t personally have believe it but to dismiss the notion relative to this particular artist is crazy talk.
