Would we have wack ass Beyonce if Aaliyah didnt die?

[Tetris v2.0]

Beyonce aint got no soul

Yep. Shes got a great voice but the emotion factor is missing. Shes not a legendary soul act who had a life of drama and struggle that bled into her voice and her tracks and drew you into her reality. Shes a spoiled child whos life and career has been micromanaged to a subatomic level. Everything about her is calculated and manufactured

IKR!

Are people just listening to B's singles?

Aaliyah also put one of the most successful producers of all time on the map - Timbaland

I'd go with Aaliyah. She had that it factor. Had me tryna bag chicks that looked like her in my teen years. lol Beyonce is talented/sexy and all but she's devoted to makin hood rat music.

Beyonce is way better than Aaliyah. just cause she dead don't mean she better.

y'all see what I did there?

 

[Bolzmark]

are you seriosuly downplaying Aaliyah?

She is a match for Bey in the face, actually I would even give her the nod over Bey in the face department, but lets be honest here, Aaliyah had the body of a 12 year old.

And Bey is a better singer and dancer. Aaliyah wouldnt have had any impact on Beys career.

If Aaliyah didn't die, we have no way of knowing she'd even still be relevant. She could be Brandy/Monica status right now.

Beyonce may make music for bird bytches, but that's an audience that'll at least somewhat support her albums.

Aaliyah RIP, but thread-starter is bugging.

Voice department - Bey

Dance department - Bey

Looks department - Bey

 

[JustCKing]

I like Aaliyah's music much more than Beyonce's, but Beyonce blowing up was pretty much inevitable regardless.

Add Missy Elliott to that list. Missy wrote all of the Timbaland produced material on that album which led to Missy writing for Janet, Whitney, and Mariah.

 

[FreshAIG]

Beyonce is far more talented than Aaliyah

RIP to her

Eh, even though I dislike Beyonce's stuff because of the anthems she makes, you don't become one of the biggest selling artists of all time making music for "bird bytches"

 

[28 Gramz]

Timbaland and Missy MADE Aaliyah, without them she'd be the female Ginuwine..B was already a bigger star before she passed away.

SHE WAS NO MORE LESS TALENTED
