I mean, what is Ariana’s artistry? No offence, she has a very nice voice but that’s it. She barely input anything in the creation of her music relative to Taylor.

There really isn’t much artistry for Ariana. I guess sampling *NSYNC and The Sound Of Music and making a music video based on Mean Girls 

 

When it comes to artistry, Taylor wins by light years obviously

Easily Ariana.

Taylor easily, please.

While Taylor has the benefit of being the blond, white media darling who gets over-praised while often being mediocre, the heights of her artistry surpasses Ariana in everything but vocals.

Ari is one of my faves, but…. What input does she give? She can compile songs into an album, she knows how to give a good visual, and she’s got the vocals, but other than that, I feel like she barely adds to or changes these songs.

Ariana Is pretty and serves Barbie for grown up gays. Idk if that’s artistry. Maybe image? I live for ha tho. 
 

taylor is a songwriter so it’s a no brainer there

[littlebodybigheart]

ariana does not have any artistry at all. she’s just somebody that can sing.

[Gorjesspazze9]

Ariana is a Singer, Taylor is a Songwriter. Pretty clear Taylor is more involved in the Arts. 

[Into The Void]

I'm just gonna say Ari

One could argue that singing is an art form in itself that not many people could pull off. Sure there's random people at church or your local dive bar that can sing circles around our faves but let's be honest the average person on the street does not sing well even with vocal training.

Taylor Swift can have this one.
