Def Jam used the fukk out of her that last album...there were like 7 singles and 2 tours...they did everything they could to squeeze them last few pennies after her because she was their biggest star...she prolly glad to have this long ass break...

heard Roc Nation got her the masters to all her albums and gave her her own label :ohhh:

This is a huge reach. Both of them are considered two of the most beautiful women. Both of them are among the biggest stars on the planet. It has nothing to do with who has more "traditional African features" and more to do with the music they make. Nothing about Beyonce is racially ambiguous. If that's the case, how have both of them managed to sell more than Alicia Keys in recent years?

Because Alicia Keys has never been presented to us the way Ri and B has. Alicia for most part has always tried to be a Soul/R&B artist.

Outside of MJB, in the last 15 years, show me a dark skin female rnb sanger who was doing it on a large scale???

Jennifer Hudson. She doesn't sell like that, but few singers have gotten the looks she's gotten in the last 15 years. From Oscars to huge performances at awards shows to Grammys.

Like I said, if there was a correlation between being mixed looking and success, Amerie should have been a star.
