Aquaria Posted September 17, 2014 Share Posted September 17, 2014 13 albums? She had like 3 or 4 crossover hits. That's all anyone remembers of course I'm speaking as an American ( obviously ) so yes Aaliyah is an icon and Selena had hits and was portrayed by JLo in a movie.

jarrylf Posted September 17, 2014 Share Posted September 17, 2014 13 albums? She had like 3 or 4 crossover hits. That's all anyone remembers of course I'm speaking as an American ( obviously ) so yes Aaliyah is an icon and Selena had hits and was portrayed by JLo in a movie. Yup, and most of them were hit's in their markets. Just because that's all you & whoever else remembers doesn't make her impact any less of what it is, she racked up awards and she broke down walls that no woman before her did and she's as American as you & I . What I'll agree to is she may not be as renowned as Gloria, but she's def a Legend in her market, that's undenyable, she's done too much and too many after follow what she did, she earned the title, like it, understand it, or not, the stats speak for themselves. She is the highest selling & most successful female Mexican American singer and you will deal. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This is why I'm not here for the "legends" panel Im standing perfectly fine dearest Nah, we see the stats & influence (and originality), it's like I told Effy there are different levels and types of LEGENDARY, that's undenyably, and The Legends Panel doesn't go into detail about what kind. And we give valid reasons to why Honey Bee Bee Chile isn't deemed As if you won't be watching the next 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bu. Posted September 17, 2014 Share Posted September 17, 2014 Her fanbase is huge in Latin America. She's far from local. Truth be told, both her and J-lo are legends, but Selena is more artistically respected. I meant local as in a local latin america legend . Was she big in America?
