you're creating your own narrative to help try and reshape reality in your mind

but I have a google too, so let's look at the 1996 grammy's - first of all, vanessa williams was in that category...is she in the running for GOAT? :pachaha:
Grammy Award for Best Female R&B Vocal Performance - Wikipedia

plus, Toni Braxton lost, but that album sold 16 million copies
and you're arguing that Toni wasn't as popular as Anita Baker that year? who didn't even release an album in 96!?!? :mindblown:


please....please respond...please!

No one is creating any realities. What's happening here is for two posts now, you're trying to twist words around and laugh it off. But I know what it looks like when someone about to take an L and they try to start dodging questions. Let's clear a few things up.

No, Vanessa Williams ain't the GOAT.
No, i'm not arguing that Toni wasn't as popular. In fact, I said she was at the HEIGHT of her career (but when you about to take an L, you skip over some things being said...)

So, answer the question. How is it possible that she won a grammy over Mariah or Toni if no one cared about her in the 90s?

they felt she had a better song than everybody else :what:, the fukk is wrong with you?

bruh, I'm an ANITA. BAKER. FAN. i'm not bashing anita baker

i pointed out that other artists simply had careers spanning longer than hers and have sold more records than her

therefore she can't be considered the GOAT. <<< this is not a bashing, hateful, negative point. it's simply a point of fact. for whatever reason you're wanting to argue and fight

but again...it's entertaining and it's my day off. please. keep going with your bullshyt. :sas2:

Now you sound like a white woman trying to play victim lmao.

You aren't a fan of Anita or music. You been talking out your ass the last couple of pages saying she was irrelevant in the 90s and her catalog ain't great/well-known outside of two albums. That's a lot different than saying "x artist had a longer career". I just had to make sure you had the facts. There's enough lies going around about our legends as is. I'm glad to see you finally did your Googles, tho.

Take the L and go watch some Unsung. That way, you can avoid backing yourself into a corner by naming two extremely popular artists she beat out after saying no one cared about her because you didn't know. :heh:

@Dirien i'm getting ready to show you why you're crazy and why you're a troll:

Toni Braxtons first two albums ALONE eclipse anita bakers entire. career. in sales.

so, with that being said, why should Anita Baker should be ABOVE Toni in terms of popularity or on the GOAT list?

Bruh, I just gave you an out. You ain't had enough? Aren't you the same guy who said Anita only had two great albums? That don't apply to Toni tho, right? :stopitslime: Go enjoy your day off man

Angel was on the first album though and wasn't a major hit. So they must at least know 3 albums then :jbhmm:

ah, because answering it would force you to admit you're not only wrong, but you've been trolling.

:jbhmm: so in whatever dimension you preside in, they don't measure recording artists by awards and album sales?

"music quality" is subjective - you could argue that rubbing rocks together is beautiful music, this is how mildly retarded emotional people go through life gauging things.

that goal post is in the bottom of the ocean now.

Aight....So since Rihanna is officially the 2nd highest selling female artist of all time now, let me know where she sitting at on the GOAT list. I'll let you put that one together.

but here's the kicker and what you're functionally retarded ass can't seem to comprehend

SHE DOESN'T HAVE TO BE ***YOUR*** SECOND, OR FIRST, OR THIRD OF ALL TIME.

you're mixing your feelings for Anita Bakers music in with cold hard facts - they don't mesh.

hopefully after reading this you can see how crazy you are and log off and get some help.
