Thus far Britney and Madonna (in that order) have achieved it for females. But I'm thinking Velvet Rope era tbh. After Velvet rope where she traded in commercial hits for artistic strides, Madonna had Ray of light and Whitney had My love is your love. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

slw84 Posted May 5, 2022 Share Posted May 5, 2022 12 hours ago, Thinking Of You said: She literally was deemed a legend by the end of the Rhythm Nation 1814 era. She received the MTV Vanguard Award in 1990 and in the same year, she had received eight awards in one night at the Billboard Music Awards Not sure that constitutes as a legend. She was undeniably iconic after RH1814. I think many would list All for you but I think Velvet Rope was it because prior eras were hits driven whereas Velvet Rope was the era where she pushed herself to the artistic ceiling and broke through nad while the sales declined 50% she still had hits that are blueprints. I get so lonely. What about Together again which became her ultimate smash of that era and it was artistically deep but also universal. That was perfection in balance.

AFY was released in 2001 and Britney held the record with oops in 2000 ot: 2001 if I’m not mistaken her and Whitney cemented their legend status around the same time. Madonna did it in 2000 and Mariah in 2005 I get why many say AFY since that was a defining era but I'm thinking Velvet Rope really cemented her beyond her time and as an undeniable blueprint who didn't have to chase commercial success hits but could take a risk and bare her soul and still accomplish her assignment.

She received the Vanguard Award “four” years into her career The only recipients of that award at the time were The Beatles, David Bowie, Michael, and some other old white men who were already deemed as legends.
