TwistedElegance™ Posted March 18, 2013 Share Posted March 18, 2013 oh so to clarify Adele has been an artist with two albums in five years that sold 12.5 million and Beyonce been around since the 90s in a group, then in 2002 as a solo artist and over 10 years later she has sold 12.5 million......I just want to make sure we're clear here Crystal. Took a while, but you got there. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Reyna ♔ Posted March 18, 2013 Share Posted March 18, 2013 Exactly. But you know the gworls on here like to bitch and moan about Bey but if it's another girl they'll be all over it. It's all about tha hypocrisy. Actually I'd be saying the same regardless of who said it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bu. Posted March 18, 2013 Author Share Posted March 18, 2013 I don't even care for Kanye, never have, and what does he have to do with this? Bey is more successful and has been in the business longer. Once again, she should know better. The 'arrogance' part...and to be fair Kanye has been around 10+ years too 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Reyna ♔ Posted March 18, 2013 Share Posted March 18, 2013 Lmao@ everyone mad being Rihanna fans. Does "Phuckyotour" and "Phuckyofav" ring any bells? Uhm, no. I can't stand Rihanna Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bailey Posted March 18, 2013 Share Posted March 18, 2013 I cant keep doing this, IMO the song lyrical content is beneath that of a queen unless her kingdom is the ghetto, otherwise that behavior is just plain gutter 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Reyna ♔ Posted March 18, 2013 Share Posted March 18, 2013 The 'arrogance' part...and to be fair Kanye has been around 10+ years too Alright. My position still is the same. If you're as great as you think you are, there's no need for this. Period. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bailey Posted March 18, 2013 Share Posted March 18, 2013 Crystal. Took a while, but you got there. got to the point several of us have already made and that her sales have been declining? good day mate Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Unbreakable. Posted March 18, 2013 Share Posted March 18, 2013 So Rihanna is on Instagram calling people statistics but yet she "keeps the music about the music"? What does that even mean? You're all hypocrites. Rihanna is on social media talking about "Phuckyourfav" everyday and you get life. But it's Beyonce, the standard. So I understand the fumes. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rock & Roll Hall of Game Posted March 18, 2013 Share Posted March 18, 2013 you serious? 19 came out in 2008 and 21 came out in 2011. That's a five-year window. Ouch! Math fail 11-8=3 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Laveaux Posted March 18, 2013 Share Posted March 18, 2013 Exactly. But you know the gworls on here like to bitch and moan about Bey but if it's another girl they'll be all over it. It's all about tha hypocrisy. yeah I am completely aware whats going on here. But they don't need to stand in line or work behind the scene or know someone who knows someone who knows someone...they just need to be them because they are Mrs. Carters priority and that's why she made this song. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
J. Posted March 18, 2013 Share Posted March 18, 2013 The song is shit, predictable of Beyonce, but I'm sure everyone will love it. I don't like when ANY artist boasts about their success really, which is probably why I'm not a huge fan of hip hop. "Diva" was more than enough and I didn't really care for that. To me, Beyonce has always been paranoid about not being the number one female in the game. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Reyna ♔ Posted March 18, 2013 Share Posted March 18, 2013 Reyna, you're better than that response. I was thinking the same about your post on "She's not Whitney or Janet". As I said, I feel the same regardless of who it is. There's no need for this if you have the three qualities I mentioned and to be at your height and talk like this is pathetic.

I cant believe this is Matt, the music guru, the guy that post his top 1000 songs of the year every year with reviews for each song......you dare stand by this nonesense?

Laveaux Posted March 18, 2013 Share Posted March 18, 2013 But it's fake.. Beyond.say and reality were never in the same room to begin with. In the world of entertainment everything is an illusion boo. I know its fake, I am aware that she aint the hot commodity she used to be...its a song boo. Let it go.

Rock & Roll Hall of Game Posted March 18, 2013 Share Posted March 18, 2013 And she's not.. She's just the most publicized With 4lop she kinda lost her mojo and recording sloppy ghetto music like these two samples Lets just say female hip hop artists has no full time market. If I were Onika, I'd be pissed.. She's the queen of ratchet Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bailey Posted March 18, 2013 Share Posted March 18, 2013 Who said they weren't? thats not the point, the point is we are trying to reconclile the reality that on the one hand you did in fact say she has the right to boast, with the other reality that every album she has put out since her debut sold less than the previous effort.

There's no need for this if you have the three qualities I mentioned and to be at your height and talk like this is pathetic. There mightn't be a need but there is definitely a want for these type of tracks among fan bases. Beyonce obviously knows that. I cant believe this is Matt, the music guru, the guy that post his top 1000 songs of the year every year with reviews for each song......you dare stand by this nonesense? I would rather her release the National Anthem sung "FRada DOe" than hear this And I can't believe you've dropped the ball on both math and comprehension in the one thread.

Rock & Roll Hall of Game Posted March 18, 2013 Share Posted March 18, 2013 If this were high school.. I'd feel as though Rihanna is the poor cool girl And Beyonce is the rich girl born with a spoon in her mouth who tries to act bad ass Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
